Ghanaian Art NFTs : Kojo Marfo

Award-winning Ghanaian artist Kojo Marfo has announced the launch of his very first NFT collection, which is set to be minted in April 2022. The new collection comes as a collaboration between the artist and JD Malat Gallery, an organization that focuses on showcasing the work of emerging international artists.

According to a recent press release, the new collection will draw inspiration and elements from artifacts, masks, and the work of Pablo Picasso, to deliver a one-of-a-kind digital-only capsule. Marfo’s previous physical artworks have centered around the cultural artifacts he was exposed to growing up in Ghana and the new NFT collection functions as a digital extension of these interests.

The collection will consist of 250 NFTs, each inspired by Marfo’s Gjanian heritage. In addition, the collection will contain three key pillars: ‘Uniting the Real and the Digital,’ ‘Artistic Vision,’ and ‘Charity’.
