Artist Statement:
The collection is a set of pieces outlining achievements, moments, team love, and future accomplishments — focusing mainly on the man himself. Overall I wanted them to be subtle yet impactful within the pieces that loop. Working within the NFT space has been a wild ride getting to do new things and collaborate with people that I never thought I’d get the chance to. Now thanks to Ethernity the dream of working with one of my favorite people in the world and one of the G.O.A.T.s of our time, Messi, I have had the honor and privilege to create a set of pieces for the icon; to go down in history as his first singular NFT drop!
Leo Messi has racked up every individual accolade a soccer star can collect: a record 6 Ballon d’Or awards, 750 career goals, the most goals ever for a single club, the Argentine record, 34 career trophies from La Liga & UEFA Champions League Titles to the recent Copa America crown. He’s won the Golden Ball and made the World Cup Finals. The epic goal scorer and playmaker is now immortalizing his legacy in blockchain form. Fans worldwide can now collect Ethernity’s feature pieces cementing his value and iconic play-making abilities in immutable digital form forever.
Four pieces comprise the drop and portray the soccer superstar in an other-worldly orbit, in AI-driven bionic form both in the future and the past, the “King” of creative soccer stardom, and a yet to be revealed piece commemorating his historic Copa America win.
