WHO WE ARE
TRAP Gallery isn’t just a space—it’s a movement. Founded by King Apollo, this is where art, music, and fashion converge to create healing spaces. Every brushstroke, every design, every public art piece serves a purpose: to tell stories, to spark conversations, and to inspire recovery through visual therapy.

🎤 We bring mental health awareness into public spaces.

FEATURED WORK & COMMUNITY IMPACT
Murals & Public Art: Transforming Spaces, Elevating Minds
Collaboration with Vaccine Access Across Tennessee and Matthew Walker Comprehensive Health Center (2024)
At TRAP Gallery, we don’t just paint walls—we build conversations. Our murals and public art installations turn everyday spaces into immersive experiences that challenge perspectives and promote mental well-being. Whether it’s a PSA mural in a school sparking dialogue on mental health or an interactive street installation advocating for public health awareness, each piece is designed to make self-care, healing, and resilience unavoidable.
Art has the power to educate, heal, and inspire action. From encouraging vaccination awareness through vibrant, thought-provoking visuals to reclaiming public spaces as hubs for community wellness, we are redefining how art shapes culture, health, and social impact.
Public art is therapy. Murals are movements. Healing is the mission.
Ready to bring transformation to your space? Let’s collaborate.
