The purpose of Co:Create Ink isn’t NFTs, but the fact that we utilize this technology in our stack is purposeful

Tattoos & body art are a way that we’ve expressed ourselves for thousands of years. There is a poetic beauty to having that art be mortal - bound to time and skin.

founder at Co:Create Ink (CoCreate.ink). Elevating the artistry of tattoos, blending tradition with technology

For most of our collectors, this is purely theoretical. When they buy a design on Co:Create, they are buying it for themselves, to get it tattooed by the artist

But technically they now have more options than before. They could also choose to sell that design, and its booking rights, to someone else (or gift it, etc)

We use upgradable contracts that enable us to mark when a tattoo has been “redeemed” and no longer includes a session with the artists to get it tattooed, leaving behind a permanent digital representation of the design that can’t succumb to sunburns, scars and eventually one’s own mortality.

But there is something powerful in creating a permanent digital archive of an artists work, one that lives beyond lifespans

In creating an NFT of an artist’s design, we are taking what was once lumped together- the art and its application - and separating them into distinct units, enabling each to be valued uniquely
