Devin Urioste’s (he/him) art speaks directly to what it means to use your voice and self expression as a tool to resist oppression and create a platform for those who have not had the opportunity to do so. Using a variety of materials including spray paint, collage, and found objects, his work not only focuses on the creation process but also its ability to facilitate conversations within his community and throughout Denver. 

He uses these tools to teach his community how to use their identity as a source of creation as well. Devin has taught his curriculum “Identity, Power, & Art” in multiple spaces including the Denver Museum of Contemporary Art, the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art and Rino Art District. Devin continues to direct, facilitate, and create programs for the community not only to make art more accessible to those who do not have the resources, but also to give participants the power to discover who they are.
