​Angel Quesada (#ARTKUNGFU) has been making massive artworks marking the streets of Houston, Texas, for over 25 years. Influenced by Mexican and other Latin American artists, Quesada revels in exploring the fine line that connects geometry, spirituality, and being able to see the human hand at work in a large scale context. He is a professional practitioner and teacher of Tai Chi Chuan who in 2003 ranked 6th nationally in the art of Tai Chi. Since the early 90’s, he has served as an artist, curator, exhibition designer and arts administrator throughout Texas. For more about Angel, click angelquesada.com.
