"I Love Art"
It’s something you will hear FEWOCiOUS say often, and if there’s one thing you need to know about the 20-year-old rising star of the art world, that’s it. Representing snapshots of his memories and a mirror into his heart, his passion for creating shines through every piece, all of which exude vibrancy and symbolize the strength of feeling.
Now living in New York, FEWOCiOUS first started creating art at 13 in his hometown of Las Vegas. His foray into digital art was born as a refuge and escape for the young transgender artist. FEWOCiOUS sold his first painting at 17, and within a year of that, was able to move to his dream city of Seattle to continue creating, through a series of successful NFT drops.
In June of 2021, he hosted a groundbreaking and record breaking auction with Christie’s Auction House in celebration of “Pride Month” which sold for $2.16mm. In March of 2021, he collaborated with RTFKT, the next-gen sneaker and collectible creators who merges the realities of fashion and gaming. In the auction each NFT came with a real-world pair of shoes or other fashion piece, generating over $3mm in sales within seven minutes. Additionally, FEWOCiOUS'drop “Fabricated Fairytales” released in early 2021 in collaboration with best friends parrott_ism, odious and Jonathan Wolfe.
Most recently, FEWOCiOUS hosted his FEWOWORLD “paint drop” through Nifty Gateway, consisting of a limited 24-hour public sale of NFTs which generated a staggering $20mm. This drop attracted collectors from around the world and marked the third-highest auction in the history of the NFT marketplace. Prior to this, he was featured in Sotheby’s Contemporary Art Day Sale in London, auctioning off his first ever life-sized physical sculpture of a handmade and hand painted suit encased in an acrylic box. The sculpture was the genesis piece from the FEWOWORLD metaverse fashion and generative customizable character drop and sold for $2.85mm.
FEWOCiOUS has amassed nearly $50mm in sales for his art thus far, solidifying his place among the most popular NFT artists today and arguably making him one of the most influential artists of this generation.
