Yam is an NFT artist whose art focuses on bringing women into the spotlight.

Her art combines vivid, harmonious colors with playful, delicate lines and a touch of fantasy. Her mission has always been to highlight and empower women by making them the center of her pieces.

The WoW collection is the work of Yam. The universe built by Yam has a colourful and characteristic style that is recognizable, approachable and diverse. Yam’s art pieces are inspired by her life experiences, multicultural background and community.

Yam and the WoW team are passionate about increasing diversity and inclusion in the NFT community and supporting emerging artists. We believe that NFT collections should be created by people from all over the world, and should feature art that feels approachable, inclusive and authentic to people of all backgrounds.

Yam is passionate and committed to the NFT space and strongly believe this is our future and that WoW can make a positive difference.
