The winner of the 29th NFT of the week is Ornate by Minas Samin Art.
This 30/30 NFT was created in Paper Mosaic. It is available on Voice.
About the piece:
How far would you go to beautify yourself? Some cultures in Ethiopia and east Africa cut their lower lip and their ear lobes to insert a large ornamental plate made of clay to beautify themselves.
This artwork is part of a series I made under the title ‘Ornate’ which I created to celebrate the beauty of women in conjunction with traditional Ethiopian geometrical patterns that goes back for centuries.
I made this piece with a unique medium called ‘paper mosaic’. I discovered this technique out of necessity when a shortage of oil paint supply hit the market in Ethiopia. I had to resort to using alternative means to create my artwork. So I experimented with magazine papers which I had at home. That is how I came up with a whole new medium to create art and I never looked back ever since.
