Acclaimed British tattoo artist Henbo Henning has launched a brand new NFT titled Axolotl’s lunch break.
Henning’s daring illustrations reference conventional Japanese tattooing, however with a slighly humorous twist. The artist is especially keen on Yokai — the Japanese perception that supernatural beings occupy regular conditions. A great parallel to consider is the ghosts in Studio Ghibli‘s seminal movie, Spirited Away.
In Axolotl’s lunch break, Henning makes use of an Axolotl — which is an already odd-looking salamander to start with — and illustrates a whirlwind of ghosts who come to struggle over an inviting bowl of noodles.
The NFT is an version one-of-one and is at present valued at 0.80 ETH / $3,405.89 USD. To position a bid, please go to the artist’s web page at Foundation.
Talking on NFTs, Christie’s is partnering with nft now on “The Gateway” exhibition at Art Basel.
