🎨 Artists Ai Weiwei and Kevin Abosch are using the blockchain to make us question what's "PRICELESS"

A new work by Chinese artist and activist Ai Weiwei (currently based in Berlin) and New York-based Irish artist Kevin Abosch called PRICELESS seeks to spark a mentality-changing conversation around the value of human life, and specifically the treatment of refugees by nations, using the Ethereum ($ETH) blockchain. PRICELESS is primarily made up of two standard ERC-20 tokens on the Ethereum blockchain, called PRICELESS (PRCLS is its ticker). One of these tokens is forever unavailable to anyone, but the other is meant for distribution and is divisible up to 18 decimal places, meaning it can be given away one quintillionth at a time. A nominal amount of the distributable token was burned and these wallet addresses were printed on paper and sold to art buyers in a series of 12 physical works. In sum, technically worthless pieces of paper, imbued with a valueless token, and representing something even more ephemeral and priceless. This raises the question: How do you value this?
