Creating a More Inclusive Metaverse with Grace Gaustad
Daz 3D is announcing an exciting collaboration with LA-based singer-songwriter Grace Gaustad for the launch of the upcoming Non-Fungible People (NFP) avatar collection. This NFT project is a collection of 8,888 unique women and some non-binary PFP avatars, artistically rendered in a hyper-real style. In recognition of Grace’s advocacy for self-acceptance and self-expression, we’ve designed an honorary NFP specifically for Grace. The NFP collection is expected to launch soon.
As a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer, Grace Gaustad creates music and art that magnifies her message on tape, on-screen, and beyond. With her independent full-length debut, BLKBX: wht r u hding?, Grace creates a multi-faceted, multi-sensory world where music, video, and story come together to create a one-of-a-kind experience where all people are welcome. Through her multi-media curation, Grace has created a safe haven for a generation facing anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, uncontrolled emotions, and self-harm tendencies.
Grace’s Own Metaverse-Ready Avatar
“As someone who has struggled with depression, bullying, and self-identity, I have used my music and art to promote self-acceptance and positive change,” said Grace Gaustad. “When I learned about Daz 3D’s upcoming collection of avatars, I knew I wanted to collaborate with them. Not only does their Non-Fungible People project stand for the same ideals I do — self-acceptance, self-expression, and self-love — the collection features phenomenal hyper-real artwork that users will love. I can’t wait to enter the metaverse with my avatar.”
“We’re excited to work with such a talented and multi-faceted artist, and present her with a custom-made NFT from the collection,” said Jessica Rizzuto, Senior VP of eCommerce at Daz 3D. “Working with Grace is our way of supporting her global message of unconditional self-acceptance. Everyone is welcome in the metaverse, and PFP avatars allow all people to create their digital identity in any way they’d like.”
