Story
The story of Animal Babes began in 2016, when Eda Zamanpur started drawing sketches defying the questionable morals ingrained in fairy tales.
In the essence of the series lies the resistance against the the endless demands of the prince-turned-frog or the normalization of falsely presenting oneself to be admired.
The Animal Babes characters celebrate women who, unlike the pacified women in these fairy tales, have their own dreams, inspirations and create their own realities by deciding for themselves.
The collection consists of 50 hand drawn pieces symbolizing rebellious, sexy, strong, brave and nurturing females who stand their ground with confidence.
Animal Babes will be Eda Zamanpur's and Turkey's first solo artist NFT exhibition. The collection will be launched on March 8th, World Woman's Day, and can be visited both live at Hazal Özkan Art Gallery and online, on kalao.io.
As a collection that celebrates and supports women, every NFT purchased will support the female students of TEV's Outstanding Achievement in Art Scholarships.
