In this episode of The Truth in This Art, I chat with Greg Mike, a renowned street artist and founder of Atlanta's ABV Gallery. Greg opens up about his path from skate culture and cartoons to creating murals known for their vivid colors and playful characters, like his signature Larry Loudmouth. We talk about how his travels—from Amsterdam to the Swiss Alps—influence his work and how he channels his vision into community-driven projects.
Greg also shares the story behind the Outer Space Project, an annual mural festival in Atlanta combining art, live battles, and block parties to celebrate public art. Through ABV, he's built a creative hub that brings together artists and audiences for an unforgettable experience.
