Lisette Correa
Born and raised in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Lisette Correa is a renowned street artist of the growing Mural scene of Atlanta. Her alias is Arrrtaddict, a nod to the freedom of pirate movies she loved when she was a kid. She is a proud Puerto Rican too. Her parents were raised in the Bronx and she is third generation. Many of her works represent the culture of the indigenous people of Puerto Rico, like the “Somos Boricanos” art, the biggest indigenous mural in the South and the first Puerto Rican and Taino mural in Atlanta. Her first love was fashion design: before moving to Atlanta and dedicating herself to the street art, she lived 10 years in LA, working to make graphic apparel with some major brands. Lisette Correa sees everything as a canvas and an opportunity to spread a message, to fight against injustice and inequality, to provide representation through art, transitioning from t-shirts to streetwear, posters, billboards, and murals.
