Rio Aubry Taylor

Visual Art – Raleigh

Rio Aubry Taylor is a multidisciplinary artist who specializes in sequential art, both narrative and abstract. Having received an MFA from the Center for Cartoon Studies, he continues to create content for a number of publication groups, including his own Light Riot Productions. Eschewing boundaries, Rio strives to express himself in the most unique and uplifting ways possible. His current projects include LATCH: a series of paintings and zines that explore and draw influence from the art of ancient Mexico (his ancestral homeland), and the latest issue of his abstract comics series, TABE. He has worked at various times as a factory hand, animal care-giver, radio DJ, survey researcher, musician, and theological facilitator. In addition to giving his own private lessons and workshops, Rio currently teaches ongoing comics classes at The ArtsCenter in Carrboro, NC.
