Enrico is an author, illustrator, actor, and martial artist based in Miami and New York City. He began his martial arts training at the age of eleven with his uncle who was a student of Ron Van Clief. Chinese Goju was his first martial art. He later picked up martial arts again as an adult under the instruction of Tracy Tyler, a past student of the Jujitsu master Moses Powell. After two years of training with Tracy he attended City Wing Tsun in Manhattan earning a black belt in 2019. He currently trains in both the William Chung and Lung Ting lineages.
Enrico Miguel Thomas earned a BFA from his alma mater, Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York two years ago, ending his studies there with an exhibition about construction equipment and industrial spaces. After graduating he decided to continue in this artistic genre by extending his ideas into the New York City Transit System. Eventually Enrico would use the actual New York City Subway map as his drawing paper, resulting in a most interesting collaboration of his signature architectural style with the abstract quality of the subway map.
