GionnyScandal launches his first NFT “MOM” on Foundation

GionnyScandal, aka Gionata Ruggieri, has announced he is launching his first NFT digital artwork titled “MOM“, which will be available on Foundation from 20 December.

The career of GionnyScandal

This is a new area for the artist who has become famous for his musical lyrics about his deepest sufferings.

Gionata was born in Pisticci (MT) in 1991 and had a particularly touching childhood: his biological parents, whom he never knew, abandoned him in an orphanage, while his adoptive parents passed away a few years after the adoption, when he was still a child.

And so, as he began to write his first lyrics, Gionata expressed all his emotions by giving birth to GionnyScandal. His first three independent records landed at the top of the best-selling album charts in Italy.

In 2016, GionnyScandal signed with Universal Music Italia and started to have a great success, certified by gold and platinum records.

To date, GionnyScandal has more than 300 million streams and 300 million views of his videos on YouTube.

GionnyScandal enters the NFT world

And after this huge success, the artist recently encountered digital art with Non Fungible Tokens, interpreting the new NFT ART as a new way to give not only words, but also a form to his suffering.

Here’s how GionnyScandal describes his discovery of digital and NFT art:

“Lately in the studio I was unable to express myself only through words, so I discovered digital art and the fact that through it I can express so many things that cannot be expressed only by writing. I lost both parents, actually 4 parents. The biological ones abandoned me 2 months after I was born, the adoptive ones I was attached to died when I was a baby”.

The first NFT: “MOM”

GionnyScandal’s first digital NFT work is “MOM” which will be dropped on Foundation the day after tomorrow, 20 December.

Coming soon there will be 5 new works of the artist that, like in MOM, feature GionnyScandal as the main character, the child who represents his past, present and sometimes also projects himself into the future.

The first NFT, MOM, is a work that sees Gionata lying inside the silhouette of his mother drawn with chalk on the asphalt. A figurative suffering from when the artist attended kindergarten and noticed that every day all the other children were picked up by their mothers to go home.

On the third day in a row that he noticed that he too did not have his mother ready outside the kindergarten, Gionata decided to steal a piece of chalk to draw her silhouette on the asphalt, and then go inside when he left. At that point, Gionata also had his mother waiting for him outside the kindergarten.
