Museum of Graffiti’s Private Gallery invites you to this month’s “Meet the Artist” featuring Jel Martinez. Be the first to see Jel’s newest collection and revisit some of his past work. Jel Martinez was born and raised in Miami, where he got his start writing graffiti in the 80s. His love for tagging turned into an interest in the city’s attempt to remove graffiti, also known by graffiti writers as the act of “buffing." Finding beauty in the decay of a tag, weathered walls, with layers of paint revealing pieces of the past. Jel’s work encapsulates the life of the tag using elements of texture, acrylic, enamel, oil and ink. Each of his pieces tells a story.
