Manuel Herrera-Usagre

Manuel Herrera-Usagre

tazzista has been working on his music, paintings, and illustrations as a commissioned artist since 2006. He has produced songs for and collaborated with different awarded artists and collectives such as contemporary professional dancer and professor Laila Tafur, the composer and interpreter Raphäel Wildemann, the photographer DDO, and the podcaster Brooke Estin, among many others.

Every NFT collection and piece he has published has a leitmotiv and in-depth research on the topic, addressing fundamental human, sociological, and philosophical questions from a combination of artistic and scientific approaches.
For instance, in his collection 'Eyes: The Emotions Within' (2021) on the Objkt marketplace, the author explored how we connect through our eyes and only through them, especially during the pandemic when full facial expressions were minimal. Emotions make humans equal, so he used his artwork to represent the broad spectrum of emotions all humans, regardless of social origin, ethnicity, or gender, can experience. He developed different threads and tweets to integrate sociological and psychological knowledge with hand-crafted pieces.
The climate emergency and the climate stress many people are experiencing are leading them to constantly look for a way to connect with nature in isolation, far away from the densely populated urban areas. With that in mind, tazzista created the 'Cabins at the End of the World' (2021) Collection. Those animated watercolor paintings with original soundtracks evoke the desire to disconnect from the endless anxiety created by the contradiction of covering our needs and incrementing our ecological footprint.
On the other hand, tazzista has also explored the 'Altered States of Consciousness' (2022) as a topic in his collection on KnownOrigin.
