San Francisco based artist Mario Martinez, or better know as Mars-1, recently traveled up to Canada for the opening of his solo show at the Meta Gallery. As you saw with our recent studio visit, this new versatile body of work included his classic otherworldly paintings on different mediums and his familiar sculptural work. In addition to his colorful essays on the possibilities of exterrestrial life and realms, we also him delve deeper into the more minimalist and organic imagery that we have seen him start to explore recently (seen above).
