Genesis Collection

TWIN Editions launches with our Genesis Collection, a careful curation of 20 individual works from a diverse group of international artists. These first NFTs from TWIN Studio are showcased within 20 individual, special edition signature backgrounds.

Artists in the collection include: Myeongsoo Kim, Ella Barnes, Sasha Phyars-Burgess, Alexandra Rose Howland, Nathan Storey, Devashish Gaur, Zhongjia Sun, Adedamola Odetara, José Castrellón, Yael Eban & Matthew Gamber, Carlos Jaramillo, Yael Malka, Ryan Oskin, Y. M. Kwok, Alvin Lau, Lieh Sugai, Vincent Bezuidenhout, Rachelle Bussieres, Clemens Fantur, Carlos Jimenez Cahua.

Made across 15 international locations, our Genesis Collection explores a variety of traditions, ideas, experiences and cultures. It is a microcosm of TWIN’s intent to create a bottom up collection of people, stories and causes. From the neglected streets of west Chicago to the war-torn regions of Iraq and the prison cells of Peru, we believe our NFTs are stories on-chain. They end up benefiting causes chosen by the artists that are vital and sometimes surprising; from Wikipedia and their mission of supporting free access to knowledge to Eden Reforestation’s efforts to rejuvenate the land, our NFTs produce real world effects by allocating 40% of the proceeds and royalties to these causes.

This first collection by TWIN is minted on Foundation, unique in that every NFT is a special edition work with a gradient backdrop specific to the artwork. Numbered from #1 to #20, they represent the rarest NFTs in our universe.

Artists in Genesis will launch their full individual collections with TWIN over the coming weeks and months.
