Eric Vozzola

Artist

Eric Vozzola is a studio artist, muralist, and graphic designer based in his hometown of Las Vegas, NV. He received his BFA in Graphic Design from UNLV in 2011. Eric has shown studio work in solo and group shows locally and nationally, and has multiple public artworks around Vegas. His most notable solo shows in Las Vegas were held at Winchester Gallery, Whitney Library Gallery, and the Alumni Gallery at his alma mater of UNLV. He has created murals and public art for Resorts World, Circa Resort & Casino, DTP Companies (formerly Downtown Project), the City of Las Vegas, the City of Henderson, Life Is Beautiful festival, Meow Wolf at Area 15, and various private residences and local businesses. Eric held a near decade long day-job design career alongside his fine art and mural practice, but quit the day-job in early 2019 to pursue his thriving art career full-time, and turn it into a family business with his wife, Kira, and their sons, Sage and Oren.

Eric Vozzola’s ultimate goal with his artwork is to find symbiotic relationships between art and design, emoting feelings of balance with the natural and digital worlds, and offering dynamic universes full of wonder, mindfulness, and joy to his audience. Eric is known for his use of vibrant color palettes and nods to his surrounding desert environment within his work. Eric traverses a variety of media and visual motifs, working with painting, drawing, digital media, and installation. The range of Eric’s visual language combines the use of abstract patterns, textures, and intersections of color, with surreal skyscapes, realistic natural elements, and expressive land formations. Vozzola draws his inspiration from every facet of his life, including his graphic design and studio art backgrounds, growing up in the desert, travel, his family, the fragility of nature and protection of the environment, psychedelia and full spectrum color, colors and patterns found in nature, geometry and optical art, live music, looking to the sky and cosmos, art history, and the love of life.
