About
Adrian Avila's technique and ability to convey complete narrative scenes using light and color are his hallmarks.
Born in 1989 in Holguin, Cuba, he spent his childhood years there before moving to South Florida, where his passion for visual expression took root.
He honed his skills at the New World School of the Arts and earned a scholarship to the prestigious Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA.
It was here that Adrian developed disciplined craftsmanship and a keen artistic eye that quickly attracted the attention of industry giants like Disney and Warner Brothers, fostering a professional dedication that defines his approach to work today.
In the early 2000s, Adrian was drawn to Miami’s Wynwood Art District, where he established his base. By the age of 34, he had become a prominent figure in the street art scene, creating over 28 captivating murals worldwide and gaining national and international attention from collectors.
With a nod to the Pre-Raphaelites, art nouveau, and the neo-classical imagery of Maxfield Parrish, Adrian evokes light with a precise, almost sublime intensity. Through the female form, he seeks to challenge conventional perceptions of female representation in art.
Adrian crafts a visual narrative that celebrates women’s empowerment, aiming to inspire societal transformation and renewal for both sexes.
His philosophical approach imbues his work with a mysticism that transcends the visual, creating an aura of beauty beyond the paint.
