When did you started with NFTs?
I first found out about NFTs around mid September of 2020. After that I’ve spent some good 2 months trying to learn as much as I could before actually trying to get into the space. My genesis mint “The Dealer” was by the end of November.
In which chains have you minted on?
I primarily mint on ETH and see other chains as a nice way to experiment with alternative styles while creating a nice separation between my “main body” of work and experimental work.
That being said, I have a full series of artworks on Tezos (OBJKT).
When it comes to alternative chains, I think it is really important not to jump on any “hype train” of new chains. Just like I did with Tezos, ideally I want to wait a few months to see how the market develops and consolidates.
How do you plan your moves in this space?
Since diving into the industry back in 2020, I’ve always had an analytical mindset. I make it a point to understand where things are headed and adjust my course accordingly. I steer clear of trends that don’t align with my long-term goals and dive into the ones that do.
So, in 2022, I decided to shake things up in my career strategy. Instead of focusing solely on 1/1 pieces, which was making my portfolio feel a bit all over the place conceptually, I started taking on bigger projects. It’s all about creating a more cohesive and impactful body of work that can stand on it’s own no matter the environment, either that be a digital platform or filling a full gallery room.
Following this strategy shift, in 2022 I released “Pieces of Me” a series of editions and a single 1/1 that swiftly sold out in 2 days. Later in 2023 I released my first ever on chain generative art project of 1/1/256 on Prohibition. This project was my fastest sold out ever, selling all editions in around 90 minutes.
What is your POV on AI ART?
I believe that AI represents one of the most transformative technologies in human history, and it’s only fitting for it to impact the art world too. AI is an incredible tool for creativity.
However, it’s crucial to acknowledge that while the technology itself is impressive, its application by individuals may not always be. While AI offers a convenient means of self-expression, it also has the potential to generate a flood of superficial work.
Unfortunately, as society tends to favor shallowness, this is predominantly what we see. It’s disheartening to see people exploiting this technology solely for mass production without regard for depth or meaning.
Recognizing that I cannot control the actions of others, I am committed to leveraging AI in meaningful ways. I try my very best to integrate it into my artistic process in clever ways that enhance my work and elevate my projects.
Not easy, but I’m trying.
