Follow on Google News | Come “Home” with Hugo MedinaBy: the monOrchid Medina began exhibiting his work in 2009 and has garnered an impressive resume, including the most recent exhibitions at Teritro Wine bar, The Renaissance Phoenix Downtown Hotel and Willo North Gallery. Recently he received the Mayor’s Art Award for Public Art. Medina is cofounder of the Calle 16 Mural Project, which focuses on “utilizing my ability to inspire others, organizing events that builds on community while educating”, states Medina. In addition to Calle 16 Mural Project Medina continues to educate the youth through his teaching at Arizona State University where they now offer a community mural course. Through his artwork, murals, and curating Medina has continued to stay active and inspired as an artist and went on to say that “I have always loved painting murals, it helped feed the need to create on a larger scale while allowing me to interact with the community, where as my artwork is more personal and I create on a more intimate level, giving me a nice balance with both”. The Opening Reception will be held on First Friday, November 7th from 6-10pm with the artist in attendance. An Invitational VIP tequila tasting sponsored by Peligoso Tequila will take place with the artist from 5-6:30pm on November 21st.
