ABOUT THE ART
"This year (2021) Beyond the Streets features work and content by over 75 artists. These artists and I share a special kinship and follow a long tradition of being a voice from the other side. These artists have oftentimes been invisible or overlooked. But if you look closely, they've been actively addressing the issues of our times from within the cultural underground. It's about mark-making, space, language, music, fashion, class, race, gender, and a true celebration of how our differences create ripples that profoundly influence our world.
I know most of these artists, and we've all been on this ride together, influencing, supporting, sometimes bickering with one another. We all feel like we're working in our caves alone, then one day, we look up and realize we're part of something bigger. That's the point I can stand back and see that I draw inspiration from the people around me, the people that came before me, and the people that came after me, all in all, the company I've kept throughout this life."
