ABOUT

Jose Di Gregorio is a muralist and painter whose work features precise hand-drawn geometric patterns with iridescent sheens, vivid gradient colors, and celestial nightscapes. The results showcase an almost machine-like precision in line work. His symmetrical and asymmetrical patterns overlap to form structures that evoke the fleeting sensations associated with phenomena like palinopsia (tracers). In a more metaphysical sense, his work explores existential questions, diverting from the immediate physical state to deeper reflections on the nature of existence.

He has been painting extensively for over 25 years, with 15 years as a full-time artist. His paintings and murals have been featured in exhibitions and festivals both internationally and across the U.S., including Art Basel Miami, as well as shows in Canada, France, Finland, Indianapolis, Los Angeles, Kosovo, Mexico, New York City, Oakland, Portland, San Francisco, and Sweden, among others.

He studied at the Pont-Aven School of Contemporary Art in Brittany, France, and the Herron School of Art and Design in Indianapolis, IN. Born in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico, he currently resides in Sacramento, CA.
