A teen NFT artist, Victor Langlois commonly known as Fewocious has once again set a new all-time high secondary sale for him. The NFT masterpiece “The Sailor” sold for a whopping 350 ETH, approximately $595k at current market prices on SuperRare.
The NFT was purchased by ‘capital6529’ from its previous owner ‘2YeahYeah’. The winning bidder also showed his excitement for the latest purchase saying, “Bringing a Fewocious into the 6529 family has been a very long time in coming.”
The well-deserved amount has added another milestone in the successful artistic journey of Fewocious. A renowned and visible member of a growing community of queer crypto artists has yet again demonstarted the power of his art.
“The Sailor” NFT features a half-morphed human face blended into a cartoonish one. The looping NFT, strikingly peculiar to Fewocious style, has so many intricate details that can’t be noticed at first glance. In his words, “I don’t know what’s ahead and I can’t be certain. moving onward and upward, my friend… at least i’m trying.”
He also tweeted, “my sophomore high school English teacher saw this and messaged me saying she’s gonna add this piece & my story to her lesson about resilience to her students.”
The NFT space with such artists has become colorful, diversifying, and refreshing. No wonder, the art itself has secured a bright spot in the NFT community.
Well, it’s not something unusual for Fewocious to smash a record. He has also been recognised as the youngest artist ever to be featured by Christie’s. The craze for his artworks is to such an extent that on the day of the “Hello, I’m Victor” NFT auction, the resulting buyers’ traffic crashed the Christie’s website.
That’s not all, Fewocious sold nearly $19 million of NFTs, the third-highest amount in the NFT marketplace Nifty Gateway. This time, “The Sailor” NFT has snatched the limelight to become the most expensive secondary sale on SuperRare which itself speaks volumes about his extraordinary NFT artwork.
