Artist Statement (click to listen to the description)
“I think the difference between murals and studio work and what makes it worth it is the fact that you can’t store it somewhere. It’s up against the elements – someone can burn it, someone can spray paint all over it, vandalize it. I think that’s what’s so beautiful about it honestly – it might not be here forever, kind of like people.”
Gerardo, aka Periko bio from Belltown Mural Festival:
Periko uses bold color, dynamic composition, and expressive imagery to create murals that energize public spaces. His work reflects the diversity, resilience, and creativity found within urban communities. Through large-scale art, he seeks to inspire dialogue and foster a sense of belonging.
