Lil' Heroes

Lil’ Heroes – The Artwork is a unique and never-before-seen NFT collection inspired by the work of Spanish contemporary visual artist Edgar Plans who sees his subjects as vessels for raising awareness about socio-political issues such as gender violence, racism, and climate change.

24 hours after its launch, the Lil Heroes NFT Collection from Exile Content Studio, artist Edgar Plans and Curatible created a sensation in the NFT world. Generating approximately $25 million in trading activity, Lil Heroes crossed the 7,800 ETH volume traded on Opensea and reached the #1 in its rankings of Top NFT collections by trading volume in 24hrs.

Lil’ Heroes – The Series is an animated adventure comedy for all ages (but really for ages 6 to 13) that will give those same characters a place to live and a voice to be heard.

Edgar Plans is a Madrid-born artist whose work has been featured in the Almine Rech in Paris, Brussels and Shanghai. He has also been featured in the Moscow Museum of Modern Art and the Galeria Miquel Alzueta in Barcelona. His expressive and colorful mouse-eared characters are known as the Animal Heroes. Plans uses these big-eyed cartoons in contrast to urban backdrops using mixed media. These images are meant to be social commentaries on racism and gender equality.

Thousands of fans have already claimed ownership of these characters online through NFTs and they will continue to play an intricate part in the creation of the world and its storylines through social media exchanges and multi-layered platform involvement. Their input will help shape the show.
