About the artist

Guido Palmadessa (1988) is a painter and muralist from Buenos Aires, Argentina and currently living in Berlin, Germany. His works include paintings, drawings and murals, going from oils on linen to large-scale public projects. Raised in the street art generation and having an academic formation (National University of Arts / Argentina) his style mixes social reality portraits with symbolic languages, expressing both local cultures and personal explorations. He works focused on the human condition, striving to create a tension between raw expressive and realistic techniques. His proposals look forward to strengthening the social and neighborhood identities. He sees public painting as a strategy for a creative transformation of reality and investigates local traditions, symbols, iconography to combine this with portraits of daily life reality. In his work he addresses themes such as Identities, Memory, Dreams, Migration, Work and Traditions. He had the chance to paint for street art projects around the world, working alongside Public Art organizations in the UK, Austria, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Portugal, Croatia, Kosovo, Russia, USA, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, among others. He sees the world through painting, doing it everywhere, and considers art as a bridge that communicates people and creates community.
