CPS launches its first NFT edition with artist Leonel Moura

“Machine Beauty” marks the entry of CPS in the new digital art and cryptocurrency market

Leonel Moura is the author of the first NFT edition of the Centro Português de Serigrafia entitled “Machine Beauty”.


NFT (Non Fungible Token) is based on the new blockchain technology used in virtual currencies, which certifies the work of art in the digital environment as a unique and inviolable object. For this reason it has aroused great interest among collectors and art investors.


The series "Machine Beauty" was created by the artist based on an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm, one of the characteristics of Leonel Moura's work, a pioneer in Portugal in the relationship between art and AI and robotics.


The edition is limited to 17 copies, each copy being unique and presented sequentially, with a virtual and physical version, which is numbered and signed by the artist.


The acquisition of the work is done in Ethereum virtual currency on the largest NFT platform in the world, Open Sea, through this link.

To carry out the acquisition it is necessary to have a wallet (wallet) or open one, following the indications of Opensea.

 

CPS agreed with the artist a favorable value for CPS Partners, the main recipients of this edition.
