Babylon’s Founding Artists include mainstream creators like Rik Oostenbroek, who, in a 20-year career, has worked with the likes of Mercedes-Benz, Apple, and Nike; Archan Nair, whose work has been featured in Rolling Stone and Vogue, and Terrell Jones, whose gangster film-inspired pieces have been auctioned at Sotheby’s.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The team and Founding Artists will be on hand to showcase this new NFT platform, which intends to become the home of NFT Editions, at the opening night on April 12. Babylon x NYC will then open to the public on April 13.&nbsp; 
Babylon is a passion project of founder Shahbazyan. He has dubbed it his ikigai —&nbsp;a Japanese concept that means ‘your reason for being.’ Shahbazyan is considered one of the largest and most followed independent NFT collectors, whose collection is estimated at around 4,000 ETH and features rare and valuable pieces such as a 3D Glass Hoodie Punk, a Spiral Fidenza, and a Red Ringer. 
He explains the significance of the Babylon x NYC exhibition: 
<blockquote>
 “Art has always occupied a special part of me, but I wanted to make an impact in the space rather than remain purely a collector.”
</blockquote> 
<blockquote>
 “The emergence of NFTs has offered an opportunity to change and democratize the art world as much as printmaking did in the 18th century. Babylon is bringing in new sales mechanisms based around editions which will create an art world that is fairly distributed and open for all.”
</blockquote>
