Toronto-based multidisciplinary artist and muralist Curtia Wright focuses on today’s developed societies’ unbalanced and unjust reality. Being an unprivileged person is always difficult, and it doesn’t matter which country you live in. Socioeconomic, racial, gender, sexual orientation, or whatever reason, people still feel left out, marginalized, and outsiders.
Curtia Wright was born in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada, and studied Fine Arts at Ontario College of Art & Design University. Therefore she can use many mediums such as drawing, mural, illustration, painting, and sculpture as a canvas to express herself.
When you see her works, you can instantly feel connected and recognize you discovered a humble soul. Her works are beautiful, lush, colorful, and all the positive vibrant carries a strong message to empower Black, queer, immigrant communities.
“delve into the spiritual and mental wellness of peoples of the African dysphoria; linking to mythology/folklore while disseminating what ‘fantasy’ means. Her work questions societies indoctrinated beliefs of what femininity and blackness are in relation to gender.”
Jose Berrio is a graphic designer and illustrator, who pursued his passion at the crossroads of music and illustration. His work features warm tones, nostalgic textures, and playful typography, adding a touch of quirkiness and delivering a memorable style.
