Today we’d like to introduce you to Anton Zueqsav.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
Artist, Architect & Creative.
Coffee lover and minimalist enthusiast. A true believer that everything in life comes with balance and hard work.
I have always been on the creative spectrum. Loved legos as a kid, the idea of creating something out of nothing and looking back in awe of what didn’t exist moments before.
I studied architecture where I got to test my creative and technical skills. Learned about design theory and the correlation embroiled within art and architecture. Throughout the years I kept thinking to myself I would love to have a hobby but always failed to find the right passion. Tried everything from photography to product and furniture design. Non never felt quite right.
A friend got me into crypto, but always faded the idea of it. Slowly I started getting involved with digital art and NFTs. Fell into the rabbit hole so deeply where I would prefer to spend weekends inside my apartment testing new ideas. Just imagining the fact that someone would value my work and spend $100 – $150 on a digital asset blew my mind. Things snowballed forward once my work got recognized and bought by Gary Vaynerchuk over a year now.
Today, I’m currently working on my newest piece which will be showcased in New York Times Square from the 20th to the 24th of June.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
I believe roads will never be smooth, but it’s our job to fix them. As a full-time artist venturing into a volatile, innovative, and unknown space has its risk.
Exposure is hard, especially as a stand-alone artist, getting your work in front of people and noticed is far more complex than one may think.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I create 3d digital art as NFTs. My background is in architecture although lately, I’ve been focusing on character creation and storyline development. I would say my most common work is the Lucky Phantom Bunch collection featuring 200 unique Phantoms.
I’m certainly most proud of the journey. It’s been only a year and I’ve grown as a person, artist, and creative in so many ways. Furthermore, each achievement has been gradual, and do believe I’m only getting started.
What would you say has been one of the most important lessons you’ve learned?
Patience and hard work. Nothing in this world is handed to you, each brick you lay is one step forward and take time to trust the process.
