About Me

BIO: 

Chris Perez is a Canadian based Filipino artist practicing in abstract painting and mural art. Perez pushes moments of arbitrary movement to create an inner dialogue with material and environment, like that of an abstract dance with painting. His influences are derived from street art, graffiti, murals, abstract art, and expressionist painting. He explores ideas behind personal and cultural identity using abstraction that touches uses the aesthetics and shapes of florals. Perez primarily uses latex, acrylics, and spray paint as his main mediums. He is currently developing a series of artwork that revolves around public art, and accessibility.   

 
Chris Perez (born 1990) studied at OCADU, received a BFA in Drawing and Painting (2012) 

Artist Statement

Impulsive expressionism. Moments of movement. Spray Paint. 

The exploration of self-dialogue with material and atmosphere grants moments of incidental and intentional aesthetics. Art continues to form an inner dialogue between viewer and content. The unconscious movement through painting produces a learning experience for audience and artist. Visual elements and aesthetics within one’s control, judged and defined. Allow oneself to interact with the uncontrollable, to embrace the sense of boundless energy.
