Queen NFTs
2022
AZAM partnered with metaverse platform Virtua to launch Platinum Queen, a unique first collection of NFTs celebrating Queen Elizabeth II’s 70 years on the British throne.
Platinum Queen is a collection of ten artworks with seven colour variations each, all based on AZAM's 2020 portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.
Each 1/1 Platinum Queen artwork features one of 10 different facemasks in one of seven different colours, inspired by AZAM’s Antarctica series of paintings. In this special collection, each colour represents one of the seven decades of Her Majesty’s rule.
AZAM says of the Collection: “With Platinum Queen, I wanted to reflect The Queen’s historic seventy years of reign over the tremendous advancements in pop, art, culture, humanity, science, and technology, and capture her longevity and impact that will be felt for generations to come.”
