CREATURE&BERI DAO

The idea of ​​creating an Incubator with funding from NEAR came after Gabriela took part in the Planta Palavra artistic residency and had the second season of her podcast made possible by MUTI. From this, she realized the potential to form a network and make projects viable through NEAR PROTOCOL. After many conversations with some participants from MUTI DAO and CUDO DAO, CRIATURA&BERI.DAO is born - which will be led by Gabriela and Rita and will serve as an incubator for creative, artistic and/or educational projects. CRIATURA&BERI.DAO brings to the NEAR ecosystem a place where women, immigrants and Portuguese-speaking artists can integrate, collaborate and offer their creativity in order to democratize access to art and the crypto world. Forming a large network of artists and creatives who integrate and move the NEAR ecosystem.

We will work for gender equity and the appreciation of the immigrant, being a mean to promote art made by women, immigrants and/or people who value and spread the Portuguese language in its most varied formats. We also have the idea of ​​working with some of our own projects, such as Lives, Podcasts and Recordings of performances in videos, in order to take advantage of the expertise of the people on the board, to be able to create material for dissemination to new artists and for the DAO itself, to be able to leverage emerging artists and further foster a network around art.
