Hailing from Hawaii, artist Jana Ireijo is about to make a splash in both the art and marine worlds with her new dynamic NFT collection, “Vanishing Murals: Hawai’i Ocean.” This collection aims to support Fish Pono – Save Our Reefs, a Hawaii-based initiative dedicated to the restoration of the state’s coral reefs. The fundraising event will begin on October 25 at 6 pm Hawaii Standard Time.
Trained in fine art, Jana Ireijo has used her skills to hand-paint each design on canvas before transforming them into a CryptoArt collection of 60 dynamic NFTs. The proceeds from the sale of these NFTs will provide financial support for Hawaii’s oceans.
The Vanishing Murals collection is shaped by three distinctive designs: ‘Moemoeā,’ ‘Pilina, As Above So Below,’ and ‘Stay Wild, Uluwehi.’ These designs cleverly reflect the ever-changing conditions in Hawaii’s marine realm and its impact on aquatic life. The collection aims to convey a powerful environmental message, emphasizing the importance of living in balance with nature to ensure healthy reefs and abundant marine life for future generations.
For each NFT purchased, 20% of the proceeds will be donated to Fish Pono-Save Our Reef to support its educational campaign. This campaign aims to promote responsible fishing practices and enable more effective coral reef conservation. In addition to supporting a good cause, Vanishing Murals NFT holders will also enjoy exclusive offerings and experiences, becoming esteemed members of a dedicated community of ocean advocates.
The Vanishing Murals NFTs bring together art, technology, science, and environmental advocacy in a unique and interactive way. These NFTs use cutting-edge blockchain technology and live environmental data sourced from the Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) to create a virtual art experience that reflects the current state of Hawaii’s oceans. As oceanic temperatures rise or fall to risky levels, the NFTs fade away, and as the temperatures return to optimal range, the NFTs come back to life, symbolizing the well-being of Hawaii’s ocean.
The Vanishing Murals project has brought together various artists and organizations dedicated to marine conservation. Mark Cunningham, an ambassador for Fish Pono-Save Our Reefs, has joined forces with Jana Ireijo, along with Alohi Kai Jewelry by The Sea, Kōkua Sun Care, and artist Nadia Fairlamb, to create a collective effort towards marine conservation. The project aims to inspire a broader community focused on preserving and cherishing our aquatic realms through collaborations, contributions, and fundraising initiatives.
The NFT packages offered in the Vanishing Murals collection come in three tiers: Super Collector, Collector, and Supporter. The Super Collector tier includes a dynamic NFT and the original hand-painted canvas for approximately $929. The Collector tier offers the NFT and a limited edition print for $418, while the Supporter tier provides the digital asset alone for around $201. Once a Vanishing Murals Hawai’i Ocean NFT is minted, the ownership information will be stored securely on the Ethereum blockchain.
By purchasing a Vanishing Murals Hawai’i Ocean NFT, individuals can participate in the mission of safeguarding Hawaii’s coral reefs and marine ecosystem. They will also become part of a vibrant community dedicated to building a future with ecological integrity.
The Vanishing Murals: Hawai’i Ocean NFT collection will be available for purchase on October 25, 6 pm Hawaii Standard Time.
