Two-time Academy Award-nominated actor and humanitarian Djimon Hounsou from Benin, West Africa, has formed a collaboration with acclaimed, Brooklyn-based performance and visual artist Láolú Senbanjo from Nigeria to create the digital artist series “TIME TO HEAL”. This series consists of five unique portraits featuring Djimon Hounsou as a canvas onto which LÁOLÚ applied his famous body art known as the “Sacred Art of the Orí”.
The exclusive artwork series will be sold in a premium auction on the Binance NFT Marketplace between November 10 and 15, 2021. A percentage of proceeds will be given to the Djimon Hounsou Foundation, a nonprofit that aims to reconnect the African Diaspora with the motherland and fight modern-day slavery & human trafficking.
