Illustration as a Means to Expose Social Issues
Marco Melgrati is an illustrator from Italy who built his name and internet following because of his unique illustrations reflecting on modern-day issues. Melgrati covers topics such as the effect of social media on our lives, today’s beauty standards, politics and how money changes a person along with their attitudes.

At this point in his career, Melgrati is joining the NFT club with the presentation of his famous illustration, "The Magic Carpet", for auction on NFT STARS.
"The Magic Carpet" is an interpretation of the medieval love story between Aladdin and Jasmine from "The Book of One Thousand and One Nights". What we believed was true love ends up being a financial transaction where one puts their time and attention to the table and the other buys the table. Melgrati showcases how in modern society, everything has a price tag and the only question is whether you can afford to pay it.
Marco Melgrati created "The Magic Carpet" in 2018. It became one of his first illustrations to go viral. Now, the artwork is being put up for auction on the NFT STARS marketplace, on August 31st at 10:00 UTC.
