Graham Hoete - Mr G | Wānanga NFT

Join us as we get into our next Blockchain Navigators Wānanga with the Jedi Artist himself: Graham Hoete a.k.a Mr G!! The bro has been cranking as an artist for over 18 years, creating epic mahi toi across all different mediums from graff to digital, from whakairo to fine art and more. I’ve been a fan of the Mr G's mahi toi for years now and I especially love his murals of our people all over Aotearoa. What’s exciting now is that the bro is making massive moves into the NFT space and in my eyes is one of the first major Māori artists to do so in such a complete way. He’s already dropped his first NFT collection on OpenSea, (of which I am absolutely stoked to have his Original Aotearoa sign!) and is nearing his second drop of high quality art. If you haven’t already seen his mahi, you deeeefinitely need to check him out! @mrghoete https://www.mrghoeteart.com/ In our wānanga we’ll be deep diving into: * the NFT space from a genuine artistic point of view * how we can utilise the NFT technology as a way of sharing our art for arts sake as opposed to it just being a commodity to hype, flip and make money * how we see the space developing for Māori artists to bring our mahi toi to a wider audience * what’s next for Mr G in this NFT journey…
