the burrow

We are a bunch of ‘square pegs in round holes’ who have carved out this small home in the NFT space. We found each other through the common love of photography and the desire to make a presence in the NFT community. This is our refuge, a byproduct of our passion and efforts, this is our ‘Burrow’.

The Burrow is a South Asian artist collective with a mission to make emerging artists visible in the NFT space. Our goal is to bring spotlight on emerging artists and provide value to the community through theme based curated drops like Pluralize, and initiatives like The Burrow Art Fund, where smart contracts and minting dApps are either fully sponsored or subsidised by the collective every month.

With Pluralize, our goal was to showcase that diversity of thought, process, and technique, can all come together to tell similar stories in their own unique way. This series of NFTs is aimed to “pluralize” the same idea or message with different genres of photography and art styles.

about pluralize

Pluralize means ‘to make plural’ or ‘express in the plural form’ and is the name of The Burrow’s NFT collection. The artworks within this collection aim to ‘pluralize’ the same idea or message (theme) through different genres of art, showcasing that the diversity of thought, process, and technique, can all come together to tell similar stories in their own unique way.

We celebrate our diversity through unity of expression.

Drop #2: Pause

We are bringing together 100 South Asian 2D Artists and Photographers, to create something bigger, better and more diverse than our genesis drop.

To pause means more than to stop. It is an intentional respite needed to recover, introspect, and discover new possibilities. We carefully curated 100 unique pieces of art based on this theme.

 Drop #1: Rising Hope

For our genesis drop, we brought together 40 dreamers who believe in the hope that something better awaits us in this journey that we’ve embarked on in the NFT world. We carefully curated 40 images across 12 genres to create a visual potpourri based on our theme.

Airdrops
The airdrop will consist of 12 photographs; one from each genre that was a part of our genesis drop Pluralize – Rising Hope. Each holder will be airdropped with an editioned photograph of the genre they hold. The edition count will be based on the number of photographs that a genre has in the collection. We believe this will be a way to group our community around different photography genres, and also bring more value to the collection.

Snapshot date: April 26, 2022

Coffee Table Book
As you might have seen in #sneak-peeks on our discord, the coffee table book is being designed and will be ready this week. Of the 25 print editions, 20 books are reserved for Pluralize Artists and 5 books will be raffled off to Pluralize Holders.

Snapshot date: April 5, 2022

Giving back
One of our main goals was to support artists through our drops and by using a small % of our sales to buy art from the community.

On April 13, 2022, ‘Pluralize – Rising Hope’ holders voted on a Snapshot.org proposal to decide which pieces will be collected by The Burrow’s Community Vault.

Drop #2:
Our genesis drop was a collaboration of 40 artists. For our next drop, we plan to bring more artists together for a bigger drop.
