Four digital collectibles are launching via random rarity release on Tuesday, 7th May at 9AM PT, only on OpenSea.io
Nathan Sawaya
Nathan Sawaya is an award-winning artist who creates awe-inspiring works of art out of some of the most unlikely things. His global touring exhibitions, THE ART OF THE BRICK, feature large-scale sculptures using only toy building blocks: LEGO® bricks to be exact. His work is obsessively and painstakingly crafted and is both beautiful and playful. Previously a NYC corporate lawyer, Sawaya is the first artist to ever take LEGO into the art world and is the author of two best selling books. His unique exhibition is the first of its kind to focus exclusively on LEGO as an art medium and has broken attendance records around the globe. The creations, constructed from countless individual LEGO pieces, were built from standard bricks beginning as early as 2002. Sawaya is the recipient of numerous awards and honors, recognizing his artwork and cultural achievements. In 2014, with the belief that “art is not optional,” Sawaya founded The Art Revolution Foundation for the purpose of making art a priority in our schools and our homes.
Nathan Sawaya has earned a top position in the world of contemporary art and has created a new dimension by merging Pop Art and Surrealism in awe inspiring and groundbreaking ways. His art consists of playing with the material, color, movement, light and perspective.

Small Skulls digital collectibles will be offered for purchase at £30.00 each through ETH and card payment (Moonpay) on OpenSea.
“I created Small Skulls to explore the juxtaposition between a child’s toy and the themes associated with the human skull. Hence the bright colors. Small Skulls took over three weeks to complete. Those were spooky weeks.”

Random Rarity: How it Works
This unique approach redefines the traditional NFT drop, infusing an element of anticipation and chance that keeps collectors on the edge of their seats.
The concept is simple, yet exhilarating. Each NFT is assigned to a particular rarity level. There are four rarity tiers, each with its own limited edition count:
Rarity Breakdown:
180 Green (Common)
150 Red (Uncommon)
90 Blue (Rare)
30 Yellow (Prestige)
Upon purchasing an NFT from the collection, collectors won’t know which rarity level they’ve acquired until the moment of revelation!
Rarities will be revealed after every 50 mints have been purchased*. For example, after the 50th purchase, the first 50 collectibles will be revealed. The second reveal will occur after the 100th purchase. Refresh the metadata to see the updated changes. Any remaining editions will reveal once the sale has closed.
*Please note that the update may take several hours after the 50th mint is purchased. Kindly check sporadically.
