Jorge Ruiz is a Spanish muralist, sign painter and lettering artist based in Dublin for almost a decade.
His work is colourful, bold and positive, and is characterised by a bright and vibrant colour palette, enhanced by contrasting colour choices and tones. Through his work, Jorge seeks to create a positive impact to the spectators, all the while demonstrating multiple perspectives, and brightening every space.
Lettering and Calligraphy are the main aspects of Jorge’s work. His messages and styles are infused with positivity, playfulness and mindfulness. This work mainly manifests in large-scale murals, street art and sign painting around the streets of Dublin.
Over the past seven years, Jorge has painted a wide array of commercial and non commercial murals for companies such a Zalando, Jameson and Absolut. He also works with local businesses to create positive environments that help them grow.
He regularly collaborates with schools and youth centres, where he delivers workshops to children and young adults from a wide range of backgrounds. Through these workshops, he tries to impart a holistic approach to making art, and offer new and inclusive perspectives of the world.
