UN BOUQUET PARA TI

Jet Martinez

Market Street Arts presents Un Bouquet Para Ti by Jet Martinez.

An influential figure in Bay Area public art, Oakland-based artist Jet Martinez (b. 1973) is known for creating vibrant works of art that engage the traditions of Mexican folk art with contemporary aesthetics.

Originally from the small beach town of Tuxpan, Veracruz, Mexico, and raised in Cuernavaca, Morelos, Martinez takes inspiration from his native culture’s rich traditions of pottery, weaving and embroidery, enlivening the rigid architecture of urban environments with ornate patterns and abstract forms.

Visitors to the mural are encouraged to post their photos to Instagram and tag @MarketStreetArts.
