Present to Future

Mendezmendez concludes his 100 artwork ‘The Present’ series, as five 1-of-1 auctions and accompanying bidder’s editions close with AOTM Gallery:

The series began with a mint of ‘Balance’ in May 2024 and spanned nearly two full years.

Via Mendezmendez:
“these past two years have been life-changing, so many new friends made, so much art created, i think i will look back to this moment when i'm much older and consider it the beginning of the best era of my life.

with the present now concluded, i can start focusing on the future, and i couldn't be more excited. not only for the work that is to come, but to create it in the company of the core, the loyal group of folks who believed in my vision and had made kept the dream alive.”
