About Nick Mahshie:
Nick Mahshie was born in Miami, Florida and studied at Rhode Island School of Design. He has devoted himself as an artist for the past several years, exploring aspects of street and pop culture in a manner that engages with different people across cultural borders.
Tranqui Yanqui is Mahshie’s alter-ego, and perhaps the most outrageous of his creations. Over the course of the past 3 years, ‘Tranqui’ has spent time exploring Buenos Aires through an ongoing performance enacted at ferias, subways, and nightclubs throughout the city. Beyond being apprehended by the Buenos Aires Government, Tranqui and this ever-evolving project have been recognized by national Argentine newspapers such as La Nación, Clarín, and The Buenos Aires Herald, as well as international publications: Vice and Nylon Guys.
