Nick Santoro The day the crypto crashed

acrylic on canvas and timber frame

84 x 104 cm frame

Got a mouthguard. Grinding in my sleep. The day the crypto crashed. Hope your portfolio is okay. Drank a cup of concrete, chased with a cup of respect. If your engineer has a bed frame, your company will never succeed. It’s all grist to the mill. Leveraging the opportunity. Building capacity. As human beings, as people, as functions. Your body is built to work. The game is the game. Bring your kids to the brewery. The Gong is dead because the restaurant Xanadu by Ziggy’s closed. Keep the green tick on. Don’t worry about the spyware. Don’t forget your security pass.

Nick Santoro, 2023
