Born in Chillán (Chile), M.u.M is a graphic designer and muralist currently living in Bergen, Norway.
Like many South American painters, M.u.M is influenced by the Socialist Realism of the Mexican Mural Movement which served to celebrate shared values and whose artworks acted as powerful educational and organizing tools in the wake of the 1910-1920 Mexican Revolution. These values are evident in M.u.M ́s work, which calls for a more conscious way of living and engaging with the natural world. His paintings are recognizable for their fantastical creatures, vivid colours, and references to ancient cultures, and can be found in various cities in Chile and his adopted home of Norway.
