The creative path of FVCKRENDER: from waiter to NFT

After FVCKRENDER dropped out of school at 17, he began working as a waiter in a restaurant. But he was not going to build a career there. In his free time, he mastered a wide range of Cinema 4D software tools, mastering all the basics of working with 3D graphics. Moreover, he did this both before work and after, sparing no time and effort for self-study and training.

In 2016, FVCKRENDER had an accident and lost sensation on the left side of his body. So, in order to train his brain, he began to actively engage in digital art, developing more and more of his skills. To do this, he set a goal for himself – to create and publish once a day, one render on Instagram. And he did not change his goal over the next 5 years, creating a huge portfolio.

Corporate identity in the NFTs by FVCKRENDER

The work of Frederic Duquette is not just art, as it is for many other famous and successful artists. His works serve for him, first of all, as personal therapy, an opportunity to accept, overcome and show his injuries.

I take a lot of photos of how light interacts with the environment. I’m changing it in a way that doesn’t make sense in real life. This is how the artist explains his love for light illusions.

FVCKRENDER’s style is unique. This is pure futurism, where the author is not afraid to play with space, but skillfully shows it and uses it to create the effect of depth. The works are futuristic, surreal and rich in symbolism. Chains, snakes, faces, flowers, scorpions, gloss are signature elements in the artist’s works. Despite the fantastic nature of his work, in every picture you can see incredibly realistic digital textures.

Opinion of NFTMetria

The case with FVCKRENDER is the one when natural talent, developed by the artist himself through hard work and perseverance, gives stunning results. Micro and macro rendering of all elements, realistic movements and textures, the brightness of the elements add up to a unique style of the artist, which was recognized and loved by many in the digital art market.

From alien-like objects to geometric shapes, his art is diverse but united in one thing – they all cause a strong reaction from the public, and the demand and recognition of FVCKRENDER itself is only growing.
