6. “I Love NFT” by DR
“I love NFT,” it is a poster for the beautiful work, “Temple of Heaven” by the talented artist, Naime. As the title shows, it is about the love for NFT. In this artwork, a cartoon character, wearing an “I love NFT” t-shirt, is taking a selfie with Naime’s artwork at an exhibition. The contrast between the image, the title of the artwork, and the character of the devil represents the character’s love for NFT and Naime’s work. In summary, the love for NFT and Naime’s artwork compels the devil character to take a selfie with conflicting concepts.
