Grail Artist - Justin Aversano

NFTs have not been around that long, and we’re all still exploring the possibilities they offer. However, while this ever-changing digital landscape is evolving, there are some who have already harnessed it and used it to create new and exciting forms of art. Justin Aversano is one of them, and here’s a little more about him.

Who is Justin Aversano?

Justin Aversano is one of the founders of Quantum Art, and he also serves as the CEO of this innovative digital art platform.

How did he start?

Justin Aversano had been a photographer for a while when NFTs first started to gain popularity. He was already well known for his portrait photography, and like most artists, when a new medium presented itself, he felt compelled to try it.

His shift into the world of digital art was an enormous success, and in just five months, he had already made over $130,000 from NFTs of his work.

What made him create twin flames?

Justin is himself a fraternal twin, and it was his experience and a fascination with the biology that makes twins and multiple siblings possible that led to the twin flames project. In total, he photographed 100 sets of twins for the twin flames project.

What is cognition and the significance of piece 0?

Cognition is a year-long mixed media art project series inspired by Justin’s mother’s death and was dedicated to freedom of expression and creativity.

Piece 0 was the very first canvas that was completed as part of this series. It’s also known as “Returning Home,” and like the other pieces in the series, it’s a mixed media collage representing events and experiences in Aversano’s life. The physical piece 0 has the number zero marked on the back of the canvas.
