Am I sad and frustrated because I am a relatively unknown artist?

August 25, 2025 by Adam Mazek

My journey as a relatively unknown artist is not a source of sadness or frustration. Instead, it is a path of contentment and fulfillment. Speaking shortly, I am not sad and frustrated because I am a relatively unknown artist.

I wrote this text on the 10th of November, 2024. Nothing special happens on that day. I was doing street photography while it was 4 degrees Celsius (39 degrees Fahrenheit). Many people were staring at me in disbelief. After all, they had a reason for it. I wore summer clothes (including the www.adammazek.com t-shirt, shorts, and sneakers, but also with winter caps and gloves). I could imagine that some of those people, who stared at me incredulously, asked themselves who the guy they saw was. Undoubtedly, I am an unknown person to 99.99% of the population. The truth is that I do not care about fame. The fact that my blog is not very popular does not prevent me from continuing everything you see on the www.adammazek.com blog.

I am not sad and frustrated because of the lack of fame and attention.

Contrary. Knowing that I am a relatively anonymous person helps me to remain who I am. I do not seek popularity among the masses. I want my art to be products to cherish for connoisseurs. I have an Instagram account, but I use it mainly to provide reels regarding my artistic activity and my activity regarding walking in summer clothes in frigid temperatures. The truth is that the last time I published a photo on Instagram was in February 2023. I pay little attention to it. I do not care how many followers I have. I think the number of followers hasn’t increased much within the last two or three years. The truth is that while doing all my artistic activities, I forget not only about fame but also about money. I do not need all this stuff to remain a prolific and profound artist.
