On Ukrainian Day of the Defender, Pysanka NFTs for Ukraine is dropping its first ever collection of over 200 unique, generative 3D minted NFTs living on the Ethereum blockchain, designed in the style of Ukrainian pysanky (plural for pysanka). A pysanka is a traditional Ukrainian easter egg decorated using beeswax and dyes, holding many symbolic attributes and magical virtues that are significant to Ukrainian cultural heritage.
As of October 10, 2022, over 200 cultural sites have been reported as damaged or destroyed in Ukraine since the onset of the war on February 24. Proceeds from your pysanka egg purchase will provide stipends to Ukraine’s cultural workers who continue, without salaries, to protect Ukrainian cultural and art sectors from further destruction.
This effort is the result of a collaboration between Global Heritage Fund and Celemeta World who launched this collection of Pysanka NFTs to ensure Ukraine’s cultural identity is preserved.
