As an artist, the little time I manage to carve out for creating has become incredibly precious. These days, the majority of my energy goes toward everything but making art: Part time job, social media, networking, content creation, photography, post-production, website updates, DMs—the list feels endless.

But when I finally get to create, I know deep down I’m doing the best job in the world. I’m not here to make anyone rich, unlike so many projects that promise the moon and deliver dust. I’m here for collage—a raw, transformative medium fueled by glue and imagination, often overlooked but undeniably powerful.

My focus moving forward is to champion this art form and distance myself from the Web3 noise—the hype trains, pump-and-dumps, and disingenuous “art” that pollutes the space. Let’s face it: if you’re in this world and not offering something genuine—something that reflects who you are and what you stand for—you’re just adding to the problem.

Yes, we all want to make a living, but Web3 has long been an easy playground for scammers. The real value lies with those who’ve stayed true, weathered the storms, and remain here for the right reasons.

Art should cut through the noise, not contribute to it.
