Descriptions

A 5555 NFT Collection by Kojo Marfo. Kojo Marfo is a Ghanaian artist based in London. Marfo developed his interest in art and visual culture through traditional Akan artifacts, sculptures, and carvings that he was exposed to as a child growing up in Ghana. These artifacts still remain a vital source of strength for Marfo. He references traditional Akan art to highlight social issues, such as inequalities, religion, politics, and spiritualism. After travelling to New York and London, Marfo has developed a unique style that encompasses his wide range of influences in an effort to express his experiences and comment on society. Kojo Morfo is exclusively represented by the JD Malat Gallery, Jean-David Mallet, and had several exhibitions (London, New York). He has sold a meaningful number of artworks as shown on artsy: https://www.artsy.net/artist/kojo-marfo/works-for-sale

Roadmap
The project is very art-focused and the roadmap is not very detailed.
1. Community, the focus is to build a strong community. There will be also a free mint of an Ogma Gold and Diamond Pass. The pass gives whitelist spots for other projects Ogma plans to launch and NFT Calls (Alpha) more might be announced on that.
2. Art, there will be a creation of a Vault with the 5555 NFTS with the necessary format for printing Canvas. The conditions to access the vault are not communicated. There will be a raffle for Canva’s from Kojo Marfo and the project will get visibility with upcoming exhibitions of the artist.
3. Charity, there is a plan to donate to meaningful organizations which are not mentioned which ones.

Final Thoughts
Kojo Marfo has had several successful exhibitions. JD Mallat Gallery, Jean David Malat is named as an influential curator in the art world. Trained from Sotheby’s and owns his own Gallery since 2017. The art is very unique in the NFT world and very exciting. Definitely something new. From what we have seen in the past, mostly the art is not enough for an NFT Project to succeed. The roadmap is very basic to me and there are a lot of missing details. Since the road map’s first pillar is a strong community I was missing real engagement and community building in the discord. There has been some collaboration with other projects. The WL mint duration is 2 hours, which is not very inclusive in my opinion. The price is quite high for no detailed roadmap.
