“The La Caldera Collection, a digital art collaboration by Shakira and BossLogic, depicts the fantastical world of Caloris, a place ruled by women in an intergalactic landscape as they grapple with the arrival of both friendly and hostile visitors,” the website reads. “With art direction by both artists in a retro-futuristic style with a nod to the look of vintage posters and comic books, the collection features 4 original audio pieces produced by and with Shakira to accompany this vibrant adventure where mythological themes are played in a charmingly colorful postmodern world. ”
The value of the items is unknown however fans interested in owning Shakira's tokens can take part in the auction on MakersPlace. “Each collector of a limited edition will be entered into a drawing to win a unique signed artistic proof of their purchased work. Collectors can purchase additional editions to increase the chance of winning Artist Proof,” they said.
As a feature, non-fungible tokens are carbon neutral thanks to the aerial platform; therefore, gas emissions will be calculated based on the electricity used. This will help in conserving the forest and preserving the environment. Shakira also informed that part of the profits will go to the Pies Descalzos Foundation.
