Read about Felix's Spot Art in the New York Times
Felix is an artist I've know for a long time and havent had a chance to really get to know. He's pretty well-known for his Good Luck Spots as Hug Spots along with his Bad Luck Spots and suicide spots Felix's work is interactive: people walking down the street notice the spots. While some may avoid them, others walk into them and others are inspired to kiss or hug.
Felix is driven to make art. He's truly lived the life of an artist risking a lot for his work including harrassment and homelessness.
Felix was born here six days after his mother came here from Columbia. They went back and Felix lived in a rural town there with his 2 brothers and one sister until he was 11, when his grandmother visited Columbia and brought him back with her. Through hard work and perserverance, Felix was able to attend Pratt Institute and the Art Students league, growing to become the successful working artist he is today.
