Description

canekzapata Artist First minting on hic et nunc in October 2021, canekzapata soon became a popular figure in the Tezos art scene. Canek Zapata Paniagua, is a Mexico City-based net artist, poet, editor, and curator whose practice deeply engages with digital culture. His art style is fundamentally rooted in net art—works created for and inspired by the internet—blending elements of electronic literature, automated writing, and AI-generated forms. Drawing from his background in classical letters and influences like Rosalind Krauss's art theory, glitch aesthetics, media archaeology, and contemporary philosophers such as McKenzie Wark, Zapata's output explores the interplay between language, reality, and virtuality, often questioning how digital tools shape meaning and perception. Zapata frequently employs AI (e.g., large language models for automated writing), generative algorithms, and browser-based tools to create dynamic, non-hierarchical pieces. His works often manifest as looping videos, animated GIFs, SVGs, and interactive web pages rather than static images, emphasizing ephemerality and process over finality canekzapata has also minted his works on Objkt, fx(hash) and zora.
