A collection of adorable mushroom headed characters, varying in style, colours and genders, created by a young, very talented and relatively unkown artist in the crofam. It’s a small collection of about 34 collectibles and some customs, with something to appeal to everyone.
I was first introduced to her work in the Baby Alien space hosted by (now community organizer) . Her father was wearing a piece of her artwork as his profile picture and was talking about a new piece she had created — Flora.
I decided to check out his profile on and see what it was that he was talking about. I was blown away by the various characters she had available. I quickly came across Flora however and immediately fell in love. She’s sweet, cheerful and beautiful. I had to shuffle some liquidity around at that time, but about a week later, she was still available and I did not hesitate in making her mine!
When I began the journey of bringing her spotlight together, I realized that so far, I am the only female collector of her work, for no reason other than she has yet to be introduced to the crofem community. So it just made even more sense to make her the next weekly Women in Web 3 Spotlight.
I had the opportunity to speak with her briefly about her work and she was confident, direct and knew how to desribe her process, which she told me is heavily influenced by mythology. She had also be ok with speaking with a crowd in a Twitter Space previously, which puts her miles ahead of many of her fellow CDC uncurated artists. And that’s a good thing, as she has officially agreed to launch her very own mini-project, with the help of her father and some other trusted members in the community.
There are currently 19 Shroom Heads available (at time of writing) for purchase
Ari is a vibrant, talented and sweet 14 year old uncurated artist on crypto.com/nft. She’s been working at her art skills since she can remember and something like this has always been her dream. Ari is also very grateful for her dad Adam.Ink, who not only promotes her work via his profile, but who is truly her biggest fan!
It’s no doubt that Ari will be going places with her art, and we ladies in the crofem are beyond excited to see where she takes it all and support her every step of the way.
As an added bonus, I was able to reach out to many of her collectors and this is what some of them had to say:
