ABOUT ME

Excerpt from an interview:

​

Who are you?

My name is Alfred Swahn and I’m 20 years old (2001). I come from a small town in Sweden called Borås known for its rich history in fashion and textiles, with a recent deep adoption for all forms of art. I have a passion for everything creative, whether visually, sonically, or through writing. In the past, I’ve done all of them, but I’ve never had a webpage to show off my art previously.

 

Why do you paint?

I’m not afraid of death and I realize that I can pass at any moment, however, I am afraid of passing without there being a legacy of stuff that I’ve created that can live on for longer than I myself might. So whether it’s the paintings, music, or a blog, I always want to create to make sure that my legacy after my passing can have a longer life.

 

Why NFT?

Growing up the internet has always been my life, and I can’t spend more than a day or two without it. NFT’s made sense to me since I always have a computer around and not art supplies and since people now can own and collect art thanks to NTFS I figured I wanted to throw my gloves in the ring. Just like everybody else, I  make mistakes (and I  make a lot of them!), so having CTRL + Z as an option through digital art has been a saving grace!
