Prizes And Winner Selection

Submissions will be graded on their aesthetics and their relevance to the theme. Once the submission closes, we will shortlist 10 finalists, from which 5 winners will be selected through voting. Clone Holders and Artifact3 TCG NFT holders will be invited to vote for their favourite designs.

Overall Winner: $500 in USDC

Runner-up: $200 in USDC

Consolation: 3 X $100 in USDC

As the prizes are denoted in USDC, participants agree to be paid out to their supported ETH wallets. Prizes that are left unclaimed for two months after the result announcement will be forfeited and returned to the Artifact3 treasury for future contests.

With this contest, we hope to see more CloneX and RTFKT-related artworks come to life.

We also want to introduce RTFKT and CloneX to artists and creators outside of Web3, hoping to create a circular economy where community initiatives drives the community. As such, we're also exploring the idea of commercialization opportunities with artists after the contest. 

Note: Artworks that include copyrighted materials, trademarks, or features that are ineligible for commercialization e.g. Murakami Drips will be strictly excluded from any post-contest sales or commercialization experiments.

For original artworks, we want to explore the following:

#1 Event Merchandise

We will work with selected Artists to adapt their designs for different merchandise and offer it to the community. After accounting for the cost of production, shipping, and handling fees, the remaining proceeds will be split with the Artist, Artifact3, and featured Clone(s) with 60% of proceeds going to Artist(s).

#2 Digital Art Sale

Should there be interest in procuring the digital artwork, we will link up the potential buyer(s) with the respective artist(s). 

It is up to the Artist to determine his terms of sale, and we will not take any commission from the sale.
