RESIDENT ARTIST SPOTLIGHT! We are thrilled to showcase the multi-disciplinary talents of our resident artist, Adrian Leo Maldonado. Adrian is a full-time tattooer at Ravensgate, but that’s only scratching the surface of his artistic practice. Adrian Maldonado was born in June of 1996 and grew up in Hudson Valley New York. He received his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art with a focus in Metalsmithing and Jewelry Design at Appalachian State University. In his time at ASU, he focused his time researching methods of incorporating digital fabrication with traditional processes to create complex immersive objects that fuel his narratives. Maldonado is a multimedia artist that focuses on body adornment through tattoos, jewelry, and interactive sculptures. His interests in fantasy and storytelling is the driving force in his work and informs his interest in narrative forms and body art.
