He has worked for clients like Supreme, Softest Hard, Columbia Records, Lil Nas X, Epic Records, New Retrowave Records, Puma, Spotify, Instagram, Panic! at the Disco. Early Life Fvckrender was born as Frederic Duquette in Montreal, Canada. There is currently no information on his parents or whether he has any siblings or not. Growing up, he had always had a talent for art and painting right from a young age. In 2016, he sustained severe injuries from a bicycle accident that resulted in losing all sensation on the left side of his body. He couldn’t practice cycling anymore, which had been a major part of his lifestyle. Instead, he decided to stimulate his brain with 3D artworks while working at a Montreal restaurant. “Why I really got into 3D has a bit more tragic background: I had a severe bike accident that left my complete left side numb from face to toe. I couldn’t practice cycling anymore, which was a pretty big part of my life back then. I had two choices: either go full-on depressed and do nothing - or get get my brain active instead. So I chose to stimulate my brain and got extremely passionate about 3D work. This is how fvckrender started. I was working at a restaurant in Montreal, the work was really painful for my body and therefore emotionally draining. What kept me going was to learn how to do 3D by myself - I would bring my computer to work and just sit at the bar figuring out 3D stuff: before and after EVERY shift. That’s how determined I was - and I still am.” Personal Life !C9F66DFC-B203-46D7-AFC1-5796080EC8D6jpeg.jpegHe currently resides in Montreal, Canada. He is fluent in two languages, French and English. He his currently in a relationship with a woman whose name is not known. He plans to move to Los Angeles, California and seek a full time job there. Education He never completed his high school education, he dropped out of high school when he was 17 years old. He learned how to use the wide range of tools found within Cinema 4D software — heralded as the industry standard for 3D modeling — to create futuristic landscapes, crystalline arrangements and all sorts of hallucinatory renderings. “I don’t really have any background or education in that field. I’ve always been interested in computer graphics and never really wanted to be an artist. But one day I was working in a restaurant and wanted to learn something different so I decided to learn 3D. I’ve always been interested in digital art, but I always thought you had to have a talent to do this kind of stuff.” I was working in a restaurant in Montreal, and I worked there for five maybe six years. I was kind of bored, and I wanted to do something else and learn something. At first I wasn’t planning to work in another field, my goal was to open a restaurant and work in this industry for awhile, but I’d always wanted to learn digital art and 3D. I’d never really been an artist before so I was just scared to try and learn. I quit school when I was 17. I don’t have any degree. I’d tried to apply to school, but they refused me because I didn’t have the grades. So I started to do one artwork every day to get better, and after three months I started to get work. It was very quick. I realised I could do this for a living, so I was like, ‘Oh shit, I can leave the restaurant and do art to pay my bills.” Career He began working at a restaurant in Montreal, Canada.

Where do you get inspiration for these subjects? “To be honest, I have no idea. i just like to explore and I don’t like to stick with one concept and one theme. I like to reinvent myself everyday, so I guess my inspiration isn’t tied to a specific thing.” Any artists that you admire? “There’s so many artists that I admire. I’m surrounded by many talented friends like Victor Mosquera, my girlfriend BAEIGE, and Aeforia to name a few, but I don’t like being inspired by other artists because I have the fear of doing
