Dylan Sadiq had plans to go into engineering until the pandemic forced him to recalibrate. He's now an artist, selling mosaics to pro sports teams.
Dylan Sadiq became the College Cuber last year after he started creating mosaics of famous athletes using cubes.
"This is not what I expected," Sadiq told CNBC this week. While he was speaking, a new mosaic he created of Patrick Mahomes, the star quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, was going viral.Sadiq is currently in his final semester at Rutgers and plans to graduate with a degree in biomedical engineering. But he doesn't envision pursuing a career in the field."When I was in person, I was grinding and studying," he said. "I was getting immersed in my education.
"I'm not sure Luka Doncic ever saw the mosaic," Sadiq said. "And Mark Cuban, I'm not sure he saw it either," he added.While Sadiq said he's almost certain to forego potential jobs in engineering, he doesn't consider his time at Rutgers, which can costa year, as a waste. He said the university hires him for live events, including the football game against Ohio State in October and the inauguration of the new school president.
"I didn't understand what I was doing," Sadiq said of his experience in Detroit. "I was just trying to make an experience out of it." Dylan Sadiq said Black artwork in Detroit motivated him to create live performances of the mosaics. He uses over 500 cubes to assemble the artwork in three hours.So Sadiq made it happen. He started charging up to $3,000 for a live performance and can create a piece of art in about three hours. For a flat fee of $8,000, clients can see the live event and keep the artwork.
