How and when did your creative journey begin?
I started making art when I was a kid but never considered myself to be an artist. I thought artists needed to be really good at painting, drawing, or something physical. I didn’t even consider digital art at the time. I made a lot of collage work and was fascinated by printmaking, and continued making collages into college. As I grew up, I didn’t even realize how often I was able to be creative until I no longer had a creative outlet. I sought one out so badly that I figured out how to use Photoshop on my phone at first, and then later moved to a computer.
Space theme is omnipresent in your works, where does it come from?
My dad has worked for NASA since well before I was born. I grew up with space all around me. I find space exploration and the aesthetics of space to be fascinating. Everyone can see space even with the naked eye. I love how there’s so much about space we still don’t know, it’s almost a humbling reminder that we are human.
You are selling the NFTs of your artworks as well, how is it going? Do you see good opportunities there in the future?
Cryptoart and the larger web3 ecosystem is great. It’s really rewarding to connect with a collector who likes my work and have an exchange that’s really them saying, “hey, I like your work enough to support your journey here.” It’s also great to be able to circulate my digital artwork in a digital format. For years prior to web3, I sold lots of prints. They were great, but I was transforming my digital work into physical forms to make a living. Even when I was doing it I would think “there has to be a way to do this digitally” and cryptoart is that solution. People display my work on screens in their homes, on various electronic device screens, and in digital frames. There’s still a long way to go in terms of mass adoption here, most people don’t understand the benefit of collecting digital art since they can just view it for free. A lot of the cryptoart scene is essentially like fine art but with digital work. Anyone can go to a museum or a gallery and look at art, and for some, that’s all they’ll ever want. But some people want the satisfaction of owning that piece of artwork, not just looking at it.
The future will come when people see the benefits of cryptoart as something to participate in, not just watch from the sidelines. As more people see art as a “membership ticket” or affirmation for an artist’s career, they’ll start to understand what’s going on and get involved – whether they realize it or not.

A thin edge of seduction and the consumerism fetish is thoroughly blurred in Acosta’s art in the use of both light, and dark tones. Bold lines serve as a fashionable juxtaposition of a peaceful dream-like state and a vivid color, representing action and presence in the moment.
