Over the past few years, amid the challenges of the pandemic, Ryan Adams and Rachel Gloria Adams have been instrumental in shaping and transforming Portland's artistic landscape with their murals and public art projects. Ryan's background as a teenage graffitist evolved into commissioned murals and commercial work. Ryan's notable works include a temporary mural on the Portland Museum of Art's facade, a mural of George Floyd behind the nightclub Aura, and his largest project, an 8,000-square-foot mural outside the Gem Theater in Bethel. His mural work is driven by his desire to increase accessibility for art to all people, while also providing representation for underrepresented members of our community. Meanwhile, Rachel launched Tachee, a line of hand-printed home goods and kids' clothing, and completed two vibrant, geometric murals at the new Children’s Museum and Theatre of Maine. The couple has also collaborated on murals in East Bayside, honoring community figures and fostering positive connections during challenging times.
