My name is Nick Acton. You can find me all over the internet with the usernames: disckas, nickact, nwacton, sr333999999999, aktx, or csny. I am originally from Washington state. I received my BFA at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2023 and I currently reside in Chicago.

I create visual art that tells stories. I am inspired by comedy, the digital world, living memory, complex relationships, criminal psychology, fan culture, maps, and language. My art strives to make sense of a senseless world, but rarely finds a simple answer. Here are some words that you could use to describe me: Adventuring, timid, unshakable, underneath, wavering, cutthroat, new, vicarious, alluding, knowing, undependable, abuzz, endless, reserved, smiling, unsatisfied, obsessive, rewarded, small, indulgent, impulsive, abstract, lazy, perfectionist, real, nice, imminent, changeable, pastoral, lucky. 2006 is going to be my year!
