GRAFFITI QUEENS — 2022 NFT ART FESTIVAL

A second annual event, not the same Decentraland exhibition

Graffiti Queens NFT Art Festival returned in April 2022. CryptoArtNet's April 5, 2022 report explicitly calls it the second annual festival and describes installations in several metaverse galleries, mostly Cryptovoxels, under curator Crypto Yuna. This is a separate historical exhibition from Graffiti Queens in Decentraland, 3 April 2021.

The 2022 report is a source for the named galleries and participants at that time. It does not establish that their virtual locations or the original exhibited NFTs remain accessible today.

Advance coverage and dates

A VerticalCrypto Art weekly roundup of January 7, 2022 reported an announcement from Crypto Yuna for an annual Graffiti Queens event scheduled for April 3–10, describing a London connection. The subsequent April 5 metaverse-gallery report confirms that a second annual event was being promoted as underway. The available sources do not establish a complete physical London exhibition schedule; the documented gallery network was substantially virtual.

Gallery network in the 2022 participant reporting

CryptoArtNet described a distributed exhibition layout with locations and programmes including Pranksy Palace, Frame11, a London Gallery space featuring Graffiti Queers by Angie Taylor, Second Realm Gallery, Tannhauser Gate, $WHALE and MakersPlace. These are gallery/space labels as they appeared in the April 2022 article, not a statement that each link now hosts the same work.

Exhibitor mentions include Crypto Yuna, Angie Taylor, Gala Mirissa, Barbara Tosti, Kate MacDonald, Kristy Glas, Lapin Mignon, Jana Styblova, Hidden Forces, Michelle Thompson, Indrani Mitra, Nadiia Forkosh, Panter Xhita and many others. The original CryptoArtNet directory provides an extensive set of linked artist pages and gallery entrances. It should be used as the detailed roster rather than representing this curated summary as complete.

Participant portfolios beyond the festival announcement

Artist Dominique Czerednikow lists a Graffiti Queens virtual exhibition at a Cryptovoxels gallery in April 2022. Gala Mirissa's published biography refers to Graffiti Queens among her metaverse exhibitions. Both are independent artist-side records, although their sites may combine several periods of exhibitions in a single CV.

The 2021 show is also independently recorded in Roxanne Darling's exhibition CV. This latter record belongs to the 2021 edition, not proof of participation in 2022; it is cited here as a further independent artist connection to the wider exhibition history.

Do not confuse similarly named projects

Search results also identify unrelated Brazilian street-art initiatives and publications using the words Graffiti Queens. Similar titles alone are insufficient to establish any link to Darren Cullen, Graffiti Kings, Crypto Yuna or these 2021–2022 NFT exhibitions. This archive only attributes entries where the external source identifies a relevant organiser, curator, venue, or artist.

The historical sequence runs through the April 2021 Decentraland show, this 2022 metaverse-gallery festival, the press and artist-source directory and the separate Graffiti Kings WAX collections. For public project collaborations around the same period, see the SYNC / Alien Worlds source record.
