Amani Lewis's career skyrocketed when a haunting painting sold for $107,100 in 2021, more than double its estimate, marking a significant milestone at just 26.
The dramatic decline in the value of Lewis's painting, which plummeted by 90% to $10,080 at auction, represented a painful shift from success to uncertainty.
Lewis expressed the emotional toll of the market downturn: "It feels like, We're done with Amani Lewis,' reflecting the intense pressure and scrutiny faced by young artists.
Young art stars, including Emmanuel Taku and Allison Zuckerman, experienced similar setbacks as art market dynamics shifted, revealing the volatility of success in the industry.
