In 2017, artist Jared McGriff made his way to Miami from the California Bay area, and stayed. He earned his undergraduate degree in architecture from the University of California Berkeley College of Environmental Design and his Masters in Business Administration from New York University. McGriff has shown his paintings locally and nationally. In Miami, you can find his work at Spinello Projects. His view of the world comes from his means of transportation—he navigates the city by bicycle. Miami’s nature and culture inspire the subjects, the palette and the rhythm of his paintings. McGriff shows us contemporary life through social observations, and fragments of remembered people and places.
