Pepe Mar was born in Mexico and currently lives and works in Miami, Florida.

This group of collages with acrylic on museum board titled Postcards was included in a solo show at Locust Projects, a progressive alternative arts space in Miami. The works are rich and colorful abstracts using items from second- hand stores, science fiction, celebrity, commercial design and social media as barometers of contemporary culture.
