TYPOE

 
 

Typoe (b. 1983, Miami, FL) is a multidisciplinary artist whose work evolves in response to a given situation or site specific environment. Gunpowder, fire, plastic, spray paint and found objects are just some of the materials used in his installations.

Typoe has participated in gallery and museum shows around the world and exhibited his work in Mexico City, New York, Los Angeles, Buenos Aires, and Basel, Switzerland.

Recent public commissions include work for the newly launched Brightline High Speed Railway System, the Port of Miami, Dropbox’s Lyrics to Life Project in Los Angeles, and international sportswear brand Adidas. Typoe lives and works in Miami, Florida.

His latest solo show, Tired of Eating Pigeons, opened in the Miami Design District in September 2018. The exhibition is free and open to the public.

As part of Commissioner's mission to tell artist stories unique to Miami, we met up with Typoe and shadowed his ritual morning search for materials. We learned more about getting comfortable with uncertainty, curiosity and discovery than we could have ever imagined.  commissioner.us | @cmxnr
