FUTURE FANTASY DELIGHT was conceived of by illustrator, muralist, and designer Nico Salazar. FFD incorporates a sensory multimedia experience, including a faux slushie counter, an in-exhibit internet service “Cyber Cafe,” and a “Hidden Capsule Motel.” FFD is also known for its maximalist animation productions and films, which can be seen online and within Meow Wolf exhibitions. In addition to these art experiences, Future Fantasy Delight has a full product line of apparel, plushies, and more.
About the Artist:
Nico has been drawing since he was a small child and grew up between Santa Fe, California, and Hawaii due to his father’s service in the US Navy. These three locations heavily shaped Nico’s style showcasing a unique synergy of cute & dangerous imagery that blends influences of manga, street culture, comic books, graffiti art, and 90s nostalgia.
He received his BFA in Painting from the Institute of American Indian Arts in 2014 and shortly after joined up with then-artist collective Meow Wolf to produce his wildly popular mural-room installation Hidden Capsule in Meow Wolf’s first permanent exhibition, House of Eternal Return. Nico went on to form his product line Future Fantasy Delight in 2015 with support from Meow Wolf. Nico enjoys gazing at the Tokyo Skyline, collecting luxury paint markers, being around palm trees and practicing his psychic powers..
