Volkswagen (DE) Passenger Cars Malaysia is collaborating to create its unique collection of NFTs with a new media arts group Filamen. Four NFTs are taken from Volkswagen’s iconic vehicle. They can be found on Pentas, an NFT platform in South East Asia powered by Binance Smart Chain. Erik Winter, VPCM Managing Direct, stated that the collection is now available on Pentas.

Filamen’s Virtual Gallery and Co-curated Design Research Platform, No-to -Scale, includes the NFTs. Syed Mohamad and Jason Choo of Filamen were commissioned to construct the NFTs in response to the Volkswagen Arteon’s “design and performance—from the sound to the shape and the little elements that count.”

Choo calls his NFTs “fictional images.” Choo describes the art as futuristic, and rocketship designs are included.

Jason adds that I admire Volkswagen’s dedication to innovation as an artist. It was incredible to translate the Arteon and make it more than just a car through my artwork.”

Volkswagen Malaysia’s NFT collection unveiling isn’t unexpected. NFTs can generate substantial revenue, despite the environmental impact they have.
