World of Women NFT: Celebrating Females In Art

You may not have realized it, but female artists face relentless struggles in sharing their artwork with the world. Take a moment to think about the famous artists in the world. Leonardo da Vinci, Pablo Picasso, Claude Monet, and many more may easily come to mind. Did you notice, however, they were all men? Large traditional art collections around the globe hardly show works created by women and when they do, they are typically sold for less value.

Even in the increasingly digitalized world, where you’d expect more progress, female artists remain underrepresented. Thankfully, World of Women is stepping in to change this status quo and bring more inclusivity to the art world.

What Is the World of Women NFT Collection?

World of Women (WoW) NFT is a collection of 10,000 non-fungible tokens (NFTs) of ‘diverse, powerful, and cool’ women all done by WoW co-founder and artist Yam Karkai. The unique collection of art is meant to highlight diversity and promote inclusivity in the NFT space.

Known to depict women in vibrant colors, Yam drew inspiration from Rihanna’s Fenty makeup range to create 14 skin tones on 200 hand-drawn women. The Night Goddess skin tone, for instance, is one of the rarest features in the collection.
