Asher Liftin, a 27-year-old New York-based artist, is profiled as part of Cultured's 2025 Young Artists list. He gained early recognition at age 12 when Wes Anderson selected his artwork for the film *Moonrise Kingdom*.

He holds degrees in cognitive science and visual art, and cites graffiti artist Christian Aldunate as a key early influence.
