We polish the bar and
We turn everything down to half light
Tomorrow is Taguara day,

The Tokenía, who describe themselves as a collective of Caribbean artists made in Venezuela who aim to generate a solid market for Venezuelan digital art, and position it globally, have launched this proposal that thanks to blockchain, cryptocurrencies and NFTs, they describe, will have the opportunity to achieve it.
In this exhibition the works exhibited from the collection that have music and many colors, will represent the values of the artists according to the particular vision of each one under the common concept of “Taguara”, which is a Venezuelan idiom that no one questions its meaning, but everyone knows what it refers to “A place with certain peculiarities and heterogeneous testimonies but which are linked from the most intrinsic part of our Venezuelan culture,” they explained.
Andrés Briceño, one of the artists participating in the exhibition, commented to the Cointelegraph en Español team that holding this exhibition is the product of the union of great minds that seek to do the same thing, generate a change in the paradigm that exists with respect to art and the value of artists within society, demonstrating that dreams move to the world. “Artists impact the perspective that others have on the world in a subtle and almost imperceptible way. In Venezuela I think that some of us were crying out for it, and now many people on the same page can have an impact. Each one from his trench ”, added.
Finally, It should be noted that the artists involved in the exhibition will be making Twitter spaces today during the launch in addition to tomorrow.
