SUMMARY:Precita Eyes Muralists: Tres Flores featuring Francisco Franco\, Max Martilla\, Safi Kolozsvari Regalado (artist reception)
DESCRIPTION:Tres Flores\nJust like flowers plucked from a garden\, these three artists from Northern\, Central\, and Southern California have come together to present an exhibition about life\, death\, and meaning found in the present. \nInspired by their past\, and the city of San Francisco they now call home\, artists Francisco Franco\, Max Marttila\, and Safi Kolozsvari Regalado explore these topics through their paintings\, and create new meaning in this collaborative exhibition. The artists present the viewer with a garden of moments to choose from\, reflecting on their own memories and hopes for the future. \nArtist Biographies \nFrancisco Franco\nFrancisco approaches his work by blending dark\, human themes with playful visual elements challenges our societal tendency to avoid discussions about death. By bringing the topic into the light with humor and beauty\, Franco’s paintings give us permission to laugh at what we all must face eventually. They offer a form of spiritual renewal—a way to come to terms with the unavoidable end through the playful\, almost mischievous spirit of art. Thus\, Francisco Franco’s work becomes a symbol of healing and self-expression—both for himself and for his audience. His art speaks not just about death\, but about the resilience of the human spirit in confronting it\, making his pieces not only visually striking but emotionally transformative as well. \nMax Marttila\nMax Marttila is a fine artist/muralist born\, living and working in San Francisco. His work examines urban folklore through a range of mediums engaging with satire\, nostalgia\, digitalism\, street trauma\, fashion\, crime and resilience. \nSafi Kolozsvari Regalado\nSafi was born and raised in Santa Ana\, California. She has been an artist/muralist based in San Francisco for 15 years\, where she graduated from the Academy of Art University with a BA in Fine Arts. Growing up\, her artistic abilities were constantly nourished by her mother\, a fellow artist\, and her uncle\, a master muralist. As an artist\, she feels it her duty to reflect on the world she lives in. The result is a body of personal work fueled by satire and cynicism. Change and adaptation are a foundation to her art practice\, rooted from an upbringing of constant movement\, the results are a fluid and changing style. Her work focuses on culture\, injustice and current events. Having art as a constant in her life since an early age has driven her to engage in community-based art programs that empower youth and give them an outlet\, as her community did for her.
