Born in Liberia, West Africa, Perry moved to the United States in 1986 at the age of ten. He lived with his father, stepmother, and younger brother in West Philadelphia, where he attended a private school for most of his childhood. Later, they relocated to Willingboro, New Jersey, where he completed his schooling and took on various jobs. After high school, Perry pursued two years of college but lost interest in that direction. He then began an entry-level position in a metal fabrication shop, where he familiarized himself with different welding techniques. After quickly learning the trade and obtaining certification, he started using scrap metal from the job to create artwork. It wasn't until he met Jung Park, a frame shop and art gallery owner, who inspired him to take his creativity more seriously. There, he mastered his primary painting techniques and finishing themes.

In 2007, Perry collaborated with Park on several pieces that were sold to establishments in the Philadelphia area. During this time, Perry showcased his work at First Fridays in Old City, Philadelphia, receiving positive feedback from the public, which boosted his confidence in pursuing his artistic career. After three years of creating art before and after work and during lunch breaks, Perry was unfortunately laid off from his job, along with two others, due to business slowdown. Unsure of his next steps, he acted quickly, purchasing an inexpensive welder and hand tools to continue creating art in his single-car garage townhome, which he shared with his wife and first daughter. He began to network with other artists, participated in art festivals, and attended showings through galleries.

Fast-forward to 2011, Perry gained a profound understanding of the art world, and he continued perfecting his craft at his separate studio in the Port Richmond neighborhood of Philadelphia. By this point, he had become established and recognized in his category, attending major art shows like Artexpo New York and Art Basel Miami. He also received significant commission work from individuals through shows, interior designers, and building architects. Some of his noteworthy accomplishments include pieces in apartment building lobbies, hotel grounds, and his larger "Building Blocks" collection on the grounds of the Bruce Museum in Greenwich, Connecticut. With a long list of achievements, Perry has truly become an international artist with collectors in the United States and abroad.

Perry currently resides in the Orlando area of Florida, where he continues his passion for creating innovative, modern, and sophisticated sculptures that will grace the homes of those who will enjoy them for many years to come.
