Ernest Zacharevic on how Everything Will Be OK so long as we keep moving

A Brave New World

No matter the seismic events of past and present, we humans are pretty adaptive when we have to be—even if the whole transitional process towards the future involves a lot of kicking and screaming.

For multidisciplinary artist Ernest Zacharevic—whose works can be found along wall murals throughout Penang and the Klang Valley—despite the tumultuous rise and fall of the crypto industry and the ensuing dip in the NFT market, he maintains that economic valuation [of crypto and NFTs] aside, the platforms that operate them will always remain, albeit looking a little differently compared to the market’s peak in the early quarter of 2022.
