Art for Humanity: An innovative fundraising initiative to support women in the prevention and treatment of breast cancer
On the occasion of International Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we present an innovative fundraising approach that involves buying artworks through smart contracts on the blockchain. Donors who purchase an artwork will receive an irrefutable record of the transaction and information about its future journey. Upon purchase, 30% of the funds will automatically go to the artist, and 70% will be allocated to the Milica Women's Center.
The artists participating in the humanitarian initiative are alumni of the Superklaster program "Web3 - New Business Model in the Art World". They include formally and informally recognized artists, university and school professors, and visual artists who have created unique pieces specifically for this event.
The prices of the artworks are consistent, in line with the humanitarian nature of the fundraising. Potential donors have the option to donate a larger amount and receive a unique artwork. Alternatively, they can donate a smaller amount and receive one artwork from a series of 10 copies or time limited series. The prices listed are for reference, but larger donations are also welcome.

Maja Simić
Maja Simić's artistic works explore the inner journey of self-discovery, using symbols such as birds, feathers, and butterflies to express themes of freedom, time, and spiritual elevation. Her award-winning pieces reflect a profound introspective struggle and transformation, drawing on universal archetypes and personal experiences.
Ivana Djokić-Saunderson
Though Ivana's career has been largely theoretical, rooted in film theory and the translation of philosophy and art, through two decades of daily photography, she has discovered an intimate and introspective form of artistic expression, where light, shadow, and hidden beauty quietly unfold.
Jelena Bešir
Jelena's work breathes new life into past animations, merging them with new sound to reflect her evolving insights and spontaneous creative process.
Zorica Jovanović Ignjatov i Dragan Ignjatov
ZiDajn's work is a profound exploration of the self and the world, where Zorica delves into the abstract, energetic essence of the body, and Dragan captures the ineffable nature of human connection and the desire to merge into a unified whole.
Milica Djordjević
Milica's work transforms inner dialogues and personal introspection into tangible visual expressions, using blue ink, gesture, and voice to bridge the unseen with the visible, creating a deeply intimate portrayal of self-discovery.
Marijana Oro
Marijana's work emerges from stains and blots of watercolor, evolving into intricate compositions of ornaments, rosettes, and interlacing, with fluid brush strokes that mimic the movement of water and air, creating a sense of warmth and radiance.
Dragana Vujović-Mihić
With a background in geophysics and a passion for photography, Dragana’s work captures the breathtaking beauty of Earth and life from above, erasing everyday trivialities through the lens of a drone, much like the expansive view she once experienced while soaring in a glider.
Daniel Glid
Daniel Glid, aka ZEROREZERO, is a visual artist and designer who blends over 30 years of experience with innovative AI techniques, creating striking monochromatic GIF portraits that explore the essence of femininity through digital artistry.
Ivana Ehrensvärd
Ivana Ehrensvärd creates artworks that hover between figuration and abstraction, generating optical illusions that deceive our perception, while intense colors conceal subtle emotions and inner turmoil.
