ARTIST Q&A

Born: Boston, MA
Currently lives: Allston, MA

Title of artwork: Celebrate!

What’s it about? I painted this one day before my 23rd birthday during winter 2019, when it was cold and I was mostly painting a lot of dark caves with tiny bursts of color. This one features a birthday party that is secretly for myself!

Where else can we find your work? I post my personal work on my Instagram (@5ylv13), but you may see my posters and artwork hung up in Boston to advertise local shows, as well as on Pavement merch, retail coffee, and their Instagram (@pavementcoffee).

Where is your favorite public art piece in the area? My favorite public art piece recently was the parade of Nick Cave’s recent inflatable exhibition that was previously being shown at the Cyclorama!

What would your last meal be? My last meal would be a huge ice cream sundae.
