What is The Guild NFT?

The Guild NFT is an artist-led collective founded on Ethereum in early Q3 of 2020.

Formed as a group of artists who co-created together on large-scale art collaborations, the original Guild had a change in leadership after just a few months of operation due to internal developments. It was then reformed in late December 2020 under the new leadership with four core team members. They aligned themselves to a shared, yet unique vision for The Guild members and how its future would tie to the decentralised ecosystem.

The primary goal of the organisation is to spotlight and empower The Guild members via our unique approaches and partnerships. We believe in art and decentralisation, with the latter allowing artists to flourish in ways that have never been seen before. To that regard, we see that artists play a big part in the NFT world and what the metaverse is today.

Our growth has been vastly organic. Through many large collaborations and commercial releases, we have established ourselves as the first non-blockchain specific, hybrid DAO and became the FIRST known Non-Fungible Organisation (NFO).

What is an NFO or Hybrid DAO?

The Guild has been organising and co-creating with many artists around the globe, many of whom had not ever met each other.

Throughout the last year and a half we established our own rules and decisions were made based on the betterment of the organisation and its members. While many DAOs were established or were initiated by large funds, releasing their own unique tokens, we are not backed by large fundings or tokens.

A number of us have been involved since the early NFT days on the blockchain, hence we are proudly backed by the proof of work. We are entirely powered up by the tireless Core Team members who are contributing countless hours of energy, effort and love to support our artists.

We also take pride that we have contributed to multiple organisations, charities and artists empowerment via our upliftment wallet.

The Members and Community

The vast-majority of our members are artists.

The Guild has established a framework by which the Core team and its members are working side by side to release artworks via NFT as its medium. 70% of our collaborations also involve guest artists, many of them who are considered OGs in the space such as Coldie, Robness, Matt Kane, Julia Ponsford, Sparrow, & Angie Taylor.

Through these collaborations, we deepen the relationships by aligning with a broader artists network to build with The Guild.

Who are the Core Members?

Shinji Akhirah

Shinji Akhirah is a multi-dimensional artist that works seamlessly across both the traditional and digital mediums, including beatmaking and wordsmithery. He is known for his edgy, conceptual approach to ideas with an emphasis on abstract forms involving arrays, abstraction, bio-mechanical hybridization, characters and occasional forays into brutalist minimalism.

He loves a good coffee and can almost always be found with some form of creationist tool at his fingertips.

And when I create my personal art, I float in a timeless environment with no boundaries limitless in playful options. I tend to drown myself in lines, forms and colors trying to capture something that's not there.
