Angela not only emulates this message and life motto through her thoughts and actions, but more importantly through her art.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Also experiencing a unique childhood, this message instantly resonated with King, building a deeper and more meaningful connection. From respecting her artwork, execution, personality, engagement in the community and more, King genuinely believes Angela will be one of the leading and long term artists innovating this space.\u00a0Curating her first drop on Nifty Gateway, this is King\u2019s way of showing his belief in Angela\u2019s trajectory and to introduce more collectors to her work through a new marketplace and first edition release (Angela has currently only minted 1 of 1 artwork).<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Releasing this drop alongside Angela as his first curation of 2023, this collection is a reminder to everyone still here that: all our dreams are possible, we can not let circumstances define us, there are no limits to where this journey will take us and, most importantly, in moments of darkness, have faith, have hope, and find deeper connections through community and art that will guide you to the light.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" data-tf-not-load=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14982\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nftculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Ultimate-Freedom-art-1-Large.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1620\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nftculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Ultimate-Freedom-art-1-Large.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.nftculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Ultimate-Freedom-art-1-Large-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.nftculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Ultimate-Freedom-art-1-Large-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.nftculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Ultimate-Freedom-art-1-Large-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.nftculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Ultimate-Freedom-art-1-Large-1024x1536.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Artwork Information<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><b>Ultimate Freedom<\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><i>There are no limits really, only the ones that we choose for ourselves.
