We're hard at work with our incredible Creative Director @tycarterart on the new Azurian PFPs. The art development is split into 3 distinct phases, each with its own scope, timeline, + subsections.
We'll host a Spaces in the coming weeks and discuss Phase 1 in greater detail.
Prayer is a custom, which we must keep,
one rooted in our history, notably deep.
Some take it slow, some take it fast,
but we all know, the 5 gods are unsurpassed.
By singing and chanting or with just one shout,
every Azurian prays; what’s your devout?
🌀
Tomorrow we ask the Gods for mercy and seek our way.
But never all at once shall they hear us pray.
What do you hope will be your fate?
Will it be joy or sorrow that awaits?
!Bala 🌀
We were curious to find out where you had spotted "!Bala" in our jungle city.
From fields to walls, crockery, fashion, and beyond - it's everywhere! Some of you shared your images with us but we know there must be even more examples out there 🌀
So... let's see those pictures👇
We invited all Azurians to send us their images of this remarkable occurrence and propose a name for it. Many responded, sending pictures from their personal collections.
We're yet to run a poll to decide the name, but.. what an inspiring sight to witness all these 🌀 in unison!
Where around Azurbala have you spotted the word !Bala?
Was it in a painting, graffiti, a sculpture or maybe even something nature created? Show us your pictures of it – we'd love to see them!
You searched and pondered, you strived to know
But many of your answers did not show
The odds were tough and competition was fierce,
but at last we have our winner here!
Seeing you all puzzle was a true delight,
And @soilliterate was the first to get it right.
Calling all Azurians! 👇
