Dialogue

➩How would you describe your art using just three words?

Paper, Ancient & Human.

➩Could you outline your usual creative process?

I try to find very old second-hand books with perfect printing conservation, then I cut their interesting visuals to use in my paper collages or paper performances. I always want to keep a use/a contact with the paper in my artworks. Paper has, in my opinion, a special grain that is inimitable.

➩What key advice would you give to someone starting in crypto art?

Starting small, thinking first to build a community, meet & discover new talents, selling comes after all of this (in my opinion). As crypto art should be an extension of your original artist journey.

➩What are your plans for the short, medium, and long term?

Short term: I want to grow my community more.

Medium term: I want to be exhibited in art galleries as a solo show with physical and digital works.

Long term: I want to be recognized as an institutional artist and make a living with my art.

➩Who has been your greatest artistic influence or inspiration?

Jesse Draxler & Isabel Reitemeyer.

➩As an individual, what is your most profound aspiration?

As I live for making art, I want my art to make people dream, entertain, and think. I want it to be accessible to a wide audience. I want it to be not so complicated to understand.

➩If you could ask one question to a specific artist on SuperRare, who would it be and what would you ask?

Sasha Katz. What is your main inspiration, and what is your art process? Love your art so much.

Epilogue

Mime leaves us contemplating a visual narrative that is a testament to the human condition: imperfect, flawed, forgivable. Inspired by ancient civilizations and moved by contemporary experiences, Mime aspires to unite these worlds through his collages.

With a vision that seeks to transcend time and be accessible to a wide audience, Mime pursues institutional recognition and sustainable success through his art, leaving a trail of dreams, entertainment, and reflection in his wake.
