Manly, Australia, 17th May, 2022, Chainwire

Bringing Art and Beauty Lovers Into Web3

The first NFT art collection from the world’s leading luxury skincare brand La Prairie in collaboration with world renowned digital artist Carla Chan – is notable for more than the innovative and inspiring art that it represents.

“Space Beyond” by Carla Chan involves 365 + 1 editions of unique, forever-changing artworks generated in real-time with weather and demographic data. Each artwork represents a day in the year of the 31 most populated cities across the globe.

The artwork will be dropped on May 18 at FRIEZE New York and proceeds will benefit the preservation of glaciers around the world.

The drop can be accessed at www.nft.carlachan.com from 11am EDT on May 18.

Smart Token Labs is supporting Carla Chan and La Prairie to bring the NFT drop to life for an art buying audience that isn’t necessarily crypto native.

“Our TokenScript framework has been used to make it easy for people to purchase the NFT without holding a digital wallet and then to unlock unique experiences with the La Prairie brand via the NFT,” said Smart Token Labs CEO Victor Zhang.

‘The payment flow includes the ability to purchase the NFT via credit card and for an attestation via magic link to be issued to the buyer as a cryptographic proof of ownership of the NFT. This magic link can then be used at a future date to mint the NFT via a digital wallet.

Exclusive experiences and custom software (the art) will be unlocked for NFT holders via TokenScript Brand Connector which connects the NFT to a dedicated La Prairie brand website.

Carla Chan said : “We are delighted that holders of Space Beyond NFTs will be able to seamlessly interact with the La Prairie brand at locations around the world via experiences such as events, product reveals and in-store viewings. We feel blessed to have the team from Smart Token Labs supporting us with world class technology to help bring art buyers from around the world into this first NFT collection. We couldn’t be happier with how inclusive or exciting the project is. I am now super looking forward to launching my collection during Frieze New York & Art Basel Hong Kong, as it will definitely bring/attract traditional collectors into web3 without any hassle”
