Nino Morales

I'm a Puerto Rican artist based in Buffalo, NY. Growing up between Puerto Rico and Buffalo shaped my identity, creativity, and the stories I tell through art.

​

I work with acrylics, spray paint, photography, and mixed media, using bold colors to celebrate Puerto Rican culture, history, and everyday life. I also create functional art, including hand-painted furniture, hats, and handmade jewelry, along with prints and other pieces that bring art into everyday spaces.

​

Beyond creating art, I lead workshops and collaborate with schools and community groups, encouraging others to explore their creativity and share their stories.

​

My art is a reflection of my roots, my family, and the communities I call home.

​

"Art is the spirit of freedom, a vibrant force that breathes life into the soul, empowering dreams beyond the confines of reality."

​

"El arte es el espíritu de la libertad, una fuerza vibrante que da vida al alma, empoderando los sueños más allá de los límites de la realidad."
