Pig Currency
PigCoins by Martha Nash
Animal imagery can move and entice people. This instinct – to reach people through endearing design – led to Martha Nash’s project MarthaMarthaMarthaCoin. She designed her own economy centred on a single person, with a physical form of cryptocurrency in the shape of a seductive, handmade, glazed piglet.
‘With her project, Martha Nash set out to puncture the myths surrounding the crypto world. Thinking by analogy, she created distinctive handmade piglets – true objects of desire whose strong presence and character have made them bestsellers; she has sold hundreds.’
