Gabriel Lopez is a Sacramento-born graffiti and abstract artist who has spent his whole life living and working in the city, learning from local graffiti writers who helped shape Sacramento’s art scene. Lopez describes his style as graffiti heavily influenced by abstraction, with a focus on color, movement, and the experiences—both positive and negative—of having truly lived the graffiti lifestyle. In addition to his visual art practice, he is a podcast host and art curator, and highlights other creatives through shows at The Gallery by We Are Sacramento.
