Twenty years have passed, and Buttcoins has become a renowned artist, celebrated for his unconventional and thought-provoking works. He's still living in Greece, but his art has taken him all around the world.
After winning the village competition, Buttcoins's confidence soared. He continued to create art that was true to himself, often incorporating elements of his childhood, his culture, and his own personal struggles.
As his reputation grew, so did his medium. He began experimenting with larger-than-life installations, performance art, and even sculpture. His pieces often featured anthropomorphic animals, fantastical creatures, and, of course, goats.
Buttcoins's big break came when he was commissioned to create a massive installation for the Athens Biennale. His piece, titled "The Great Urinator," was a 20-foot-tall goat made from marble, steel, and LED lights. The goat appeared to be urinating a stream of glittering, shimmering lights that flowed into a nearby fountain.
The installation was a massive hit, attracting visitors from all over the world. Art critics praised Buttcoins's unique vision, his ability to blend the absurd with the sublime, and his willingness to push boundaries.
Today, Buttcoins is a respected figure in the art world. He's had solo exhibitions in Paris, New York, and Tokyo. He's collaborated with top artists, designers, and musicians. And he's even been awarded several prestigious prizes for his contributions to contemporary art.
Despite all the accolades, Buttcoins remains humble and true to his roots. He still lives in his village, where he's built a stunning studio overlooking the Aegean. He's married to a wonderful woman named Maria, and they have two beautiful children who are the light of his life.
And, yes, Buttcoins still struggles with his urination problem, but he's learned to laugh at it and even incorporate it into his art. After all, as he says, "A true artist must embrace their imperfections and turn them into something beautiful."
