ABOUT PEREZ

Karol Perez (she/they) is a designer based in North Carolina creating dynamic print and digital media for brands, organizations, and institutions. Perez is currently studying Graphic Design with a minor in Art History at Appalachian State University University. Perez has worked in print production, freelance design, and most recently at the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University.

As a Mexican-American artist living and in the United States, Perez’s work is deeply influenced by revolutionary Latin American movements and the designs that fueled them- particularly inspired by Chicano posters. Perez is also interested in other design movements including brutalism and “anti-design.” Their designs play with texture, legibility, and movement, examining notions of identity, culture, and decolonization. Through warping and scanning, appropriation of found media, and bilingual translation, their designs are equally dizzying and compelling. Perez aspires to work with and for BIPOC and multilingual design spaces and art museums, and aims to create graphics that are both subversive and revolutionary.
