My name is Marlon Pruz. Im a Miami based muralist and illustrator and ive been fortunate to create works for some of the top brands in the world like Design Miami and Off wht, as well as donating art for community projects. A thread on some of my past works and activations.
I started off painting canvases then slowly teaching myself how to paint walls on a massive scale. As I began to paint on a large scale, people began to take notice. I got work painting music studios, night clubs, and multimillion dollar garages
with this mural knowledge I started doing paint by number wall activations where I laid out the blueprint for where the colors go, then the public were able to contribute their mark to a full mural. These activations were for the Susan G. Komen foundation and many universities
More community mural activations. Everyone coming together. I would guide the crowd then add in my signature details at the end.
I then began to donate more time and resources to public arts and arts education. Spent a month in various juvenile centers around florida doing art therapy, traveled across argentina and brazil teaching mural classes, and created activations in foster homes and womans shelters.
started to create my own clothes
took my sketchbook everywhere I went
then went heavy into the NFT space starting my first collection with 222 hand drawn 1/1s called knifey, which are available here opensea.io/collection/kni…
