We shall keep rising
#WomenRiseNFT

@WomenriseNFT
one of the biggest projects of 2022, to on board 100,000 women and girls into the space and to bridge the education divide by building the first school in the metaverse! ❤️ Let’s go!
Are we witnessing a first wave of feminism in Web 3.0?
What an amazing start to 2022! Proud of all the female founders! Your hard work and talent is being recognised
This isn’t the first time I have witnessed islamophobia in this space. Sometimes it was subtle such as at NFT NYC and sometimes it was direct.
We are here to stay so you better get used to seeing founders of all backgrounds, sexualities and religious beliefs!
We just left our
@Airbnb

Everything you see at
@WomenriseNFT
, Aski has a huge hand in building it
He is an introvert who doesn’t always like the spotlight but is simply brilliant, hardworking and immensely creative. His input in building Women Rise is unmeasurable ❤️
@aski1787
I want to build the first school in the
#metaverse
for the 129 million girls who are currently out of school worldwide so they don’t have to rely on a building, physical books, any authorities, etc to get an education & they can have access to teachers from around the world!
I have just launched a Crowdfunding website for my book to take it to the next level and make books accessible to more students. Need your support ✨🌸
RETWEET counts as support too ✨😃
#PakistanForWomen
Created this art piece for
@Adobe
🥰❤️🙏 Grateful!
If you look closely, all the women and girls in this illustration are inspired by
@WomenriseNFT
assets!
To everyone building in Web 3.0. I know you are stressed, I know your mental health is at risk & please know admitting it, taking care of it won’t ruin your project! Stop damaging yourself to please people. True supporters will always have your back just like you have theirs
Only NFT founders are okay with working 14-18 hours a day because they know they have a solid community supporting them and they do not want to let them down! I have spoken to several founders and I love how the love for our community keeps us going 🥰
I am so grateful to the talented
@Nefertiti_Eth
for drawing me! Did you know that she will on one of the upcoming episodes of
@WomenriseNFT
twitter spaces? 🥰🔥 she is so talented and such a beautiful human inside and out! Been connected with her since I entered the space
No matter how high the floor is and how great of a utility a project has, if I don't see the founders share the spotlight with the artist, it makes me feel a certain way about the project. No matter how detailed your brief was, your project wouldn't exist without the artist.
Dear
@WomenriseNFT
fam! 💖🥰
Let me change your WR NFT’s background to this design we created to celebrate our selection for
@instagram
@meta
‘s IG Digital Collectibles Alpha Cohort!
Simple post your Women Rise below with the number of your WR NFT 💖
How I love this! Thank you
@YesJulz
and
@1Goal1Dream
for not only minting Women Rise but also for getting them printed to make them a part of your beautiful home! ❤️🥳
@WomenriseNFT
So grateful 🔥
Happiest birthday to this beautiful woman!
@randizuckerberg
!! I hope you have the best birthday ever ❤️ 💕 you deserve so much love, respect and happiness!
Someone, in my teen years, said to me, “Work in silence and let your success make the noise.”
Probably not an original quote by them but a great advice that stuck with me! 🔥

@SXSW
Day 1🥳
Had the honour of being on the
@unicorndao_xyz
panel with brilliant and talented creators,
@WomenriseNFT
was exhibited at the event as well. Met some WR family members and
@aski1787
and I wore our biggest jackets because false advertisement about Texas weather! ❤️
Excited to share the art work I have created for the
@chicagobulls
drop happening on
@Coinbase_NFT
on the 22nd of September. I reimagined the iconic bulls logo and merged it with the
@WomenriseNFT
artwork! I feel grateful to amongst such a talented roaster of artists 😍🏀
In 9 months, a human is born.
A house is built in 6 months to a year. Trees take years before they produce fruit & some of the biggest tech companies took decades! How do we not understand that in a fresh space things will take time to build but rest assured,they are being built
This is a new space but I predict that in a few months there will be reports coming out, just like we saw with social media personalities(youtubers, tiktokers, etc), of builders of Web 3.0 being burnt out due to people’s unrealistic expectations.
I have seen some of the women really winning in the NFT and Web 3.0 space this past week and it makes me so happy! 🥰 2022 will be the year of true inclusion in the space!
My father has been my biggest supporter of my art journey apart from my partner, Aski.
This is a little video sharing a memory of a conversation we had related to art and art supplies. 🎨
#Artistjourney
#art
Already started to finalise plans for 2023 for
@WomenriseNFT
. That's how much planning, intentional building and time it can take.
and excited for the coming weeks. Some things that we have been working on for months now are about to happen! 😍
When I first entered the NFT space, I was extremely excited at the innovation and the possibilities and extremely disappointed at the gender imbalance. It was very clear that it needed to be a shared responsibility of all (men, women, all) to fix that 1/10
People MUST differentiate projects led by artists and projects led by everyone else (business folks, corporations, entrepreneurs, etc). They need to be seen differently, need to be treated differently!
I will be speaking at the
@LSFF
(London short film festival) today on a panel titled “The Rise of Digital Art + NFTs”
And I have just heard that quite a few lovely
@WomenriseNFT
holders will be attending too so that’ll be amazing! Grateful to be able to represent our project 🥰

@VanityFair
!
Vanity fair updated an existing article from July 2021 and included Women Rise in it! We are feeling so grateful and over the moon that our project has been highlighted in such an incredible publication! 🥰🔥✊🏽
Article:
GM ☀️ so excited to share this!
Art Block – something I have been working on for several months now. I have been admiring so many artists such as
@refikanadol
and
@Krista_Kim
who have had the opportunity to display their beautiful work on large scales at
@ArtBasel
and…
GM ❤️ Have been away on medical leave but and am recovering well. Will be slowly coming back to the scene in the next few days.
Grateful to all who checked in and extremely grateful to the hard working
@WomenriseNFT
team. ☀️💕
Our story and an art studio
When me and
@aski1787
got married in end of 2016, we needed an apartment to live together & for the 2 of us, a 1 bedroom would’ve been sufficient. At the time, Aski was the only one with an income and yet he wanted a 2 bedroom apartment 1/3
Should this be an NFT?
I created this art piece earlier this year out of frustration for Int Women's day where we give women 1 day and forget about them the remaining 364 days. I loved sharing this piece with my traditional art community but I wonder, should I drop it as an NFT?
So bullish on
@TopDogStudios_
and
@PixelLionArt
that I picked up 2 cuties with panda caps!
I see a ton of female led projects doing well but please know that female led projects aren't only the ones with female characters!
Top Dog is a female led project and an OG one!❤️

@Malala
: A conversation
Extremely honoured to share that our creator, Maliha, will be in conversation with Malala❤️
Malala needs no introduction and she is the biggest advocate for girls’ education globally.
That is what we are dedicated to as well at WR! 📚 ✏️
You wanna brag about being early but make sure to address/acknowledge the racism and the sexism of this space as well! I have only been called a "Paki" once in my entire life and I have been called this word 5 times in the NFT space so far.
and for sexism, that's everyday!
I remember reaching 1800 mints last December before any of this happened & it was all because of our community
❤️we still don't know where the current pump is coming from but we still see the community enthusiastically supporting us! We are grateful & we are working hard for you
This post is for the ones who supported Women Rise before any hype, before any influencers bought in, before any celebrities followed us & before we had any momentum of this level!
Your support kept us going and we are still progressing because of you all!
Thank you community ❤️
