CURATED ARTIST 2017

At the age of four Adry won a first place award in an art show. Since then, Adry has grown from a child prodigy to a teaching professional. By the time she was eleven years old she organized her first individual exhibition, and since then she has accumulated 49 individual presentations and participated in 79 other artist shows throughout Mexico, the US, Cuba and Spain. In 2008 she participated in her first street painting festival and quickly became involved in chalking.

Raison d'Etre:

Since I started to do street painting I felt in love with the experience. I painting all my live, but painting on the street gave me something different. The most beautiful things is see how a stranger becomes a friend. So easy and honest to create conexions.

My brother, CarlosAlberto, is one of the person who knows me very well, specially, in my way to work. We develop a good technique working together. We are in balance. But more than technique, is the feeling to work together, the joy the give us is unique. We share, we talk, we laugh, we support each other, we cheer together. Living is to accumulate moments  and have memories, without doubt, working  together with my brother is one of the greatest moments in life.

I want to show how beauty and great is life, and  all the feelings that give us life.

So I always choose with the human been as the center of all my compositions.

the most important thing is that my piece or art work makes some reaction in the people, some feeling. It´s so wonderful when the audience do some connection with me, hear some words, some stories, their thoughts about my painting, it´s just my reward.

I’m just growing up, every time is a new challenge, doesn´t exist a formula, I have to reinvent myself every time. I discover me. But the most important thing i show art can change the environment, how can unit people, how we can live in a better world.

Street painting brought me the love of my life – my husband Ruben.

My career highlight is my work taking me to 20 different countries coloring the streets. I just love life and all the organizers who made this possible

In 2014 I became Maestra Madonnara, The first and only mexican woman who has this honorable recognition.
