Coca-Cola and Crypto.com will create a collection of NFT artworks based on the special “heatmaps” made by each team’s attacks, tackles, and winning goals on the field during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022. These artworks will demonstrate the passion, power, and incredible talent of the best teams competing in the tournament.
Digital artist GMUNK, a leading NFT artist who has been working in the digital space for over 20 years and is responsible for the sci-fi look of Hollywood movies like Tron: Legacy and Oblivion, has partnered with Coca-Cola to create a collection of 10,000 unique NFTs that were made by tracking the movements of players during games. The collection is hosted on the Crypto.com NFT platform.
This project brings together digital art and football as part of Coca-Cola and Crypto.com’s strategy to keep giving fans magical moments throughout the World Cup.
After registering for an NFT platform account on Crypto.com, football fans worldwide will have access to the NFTs. Register on Coca Cola’s Fanzone page and click on the NFT banner for a chance to acquire a Coca-Cola ‘Piece of Magic’ NFT inspired by the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 – the newest form of memorabilia that will live eternally on the blockchain.
Artist Gmunk added: “At its core, Coca-Cola ‘Piece of Magic’ uses football data as our paintbrush, defining densities, behaviors and applications of color to shape and create an immersive piece of art that embraces the spirit of football and depicts a visual story unique to each match.”
