Andrew Tricoche is a Puerto-Rican artist born and raised in Lowell, MA. He was the middle child to a family of 5, not including his mother who raised them single-handedly. At a young age, Andrew realized his talents and interest in art and would compete with his siblings and peers. That inevitably led to his pursuit of the arts – from focusing his studies at Greater Lowell Tech in Graphic Design to getting his BFA at the Montserrat College of Art in 2019. His work is inspired by the music, urban art, fashion, and culture that surrounds him every day.

His mural for Middlesex Community College presents Aztec inspired geometric snakes and dragons with vejigante patterns that represent the artist’s Puerto Rican heritage.
