Address: = care Heritage Gallery 718 N La Cienega Blvd Los Angeles CA 90069 My work takes shape around images and ideas that are centered within the vertex of a black life experience. A nitty-gritty ghetto experience - resulting in contradictory emotions. Anguish - hope - love - despair - happiness - faith - lack of faith - dreams. Stubbornly holding on to an elusive romantic belief that the people of this land cannot always be insensible to the dictates of justice or deaf to the voice of humanity.
