CRYPTO AMULET  - NFT COLLECTION

Building on the Egyptian tradition of magical amulets, I co-created a collection of 12 Crypto Amulets. The creation of the blockchain based, digital amulets can be traced back to the origins of ancient Egypt, over 6000 years ago. Symbolism was always a significant part of life in the Nile valley, and featured particularly in the use of its amulets. They were worn as symbols of protection and good fortune, and were in tune with the journey into the afterlife. Amulets were seen as magical means to "reaffirm the fundamental fairness of the universe". Inspired by this ancient tradition, the crypto amulet collection was co-created with Leonardo Marchesi, as a fundraiser for the exploration of the legendary labyrinth of Egypt. One of our most emblematic Cosco Foundation projects, contributing to the global movement aimed at the research and better understanding of our common ancient history.
