DOWNTOWN LA ARTWALK

by ShowzArt and SkidRobot

Self-proclaimed “art jedi” ShowzArt credits his mother with his passion for community and his father with his illustrative abilities. Moving to South Central Los Angeles with his family as a child ShowzArt was introduced to graffiti early on but soon traded spray cans for brushes. Actively working from the streets of Skid Row, Showzart has been a powerful voice for equal rights and services for all disenfranchised, no matter their background. Also raised in Los Angeles SkidRobot—founder of the Living Art Project—has been perhaps the most visible artistic voice addressing the city’s complex homelessness issues with his paintings of dream homes and beachscapes on the walls of Skid Row helping bridge the gulf between the “us” and the “them.” In early 2018 the two joined forces to paint this wall on S. Spring St for the Downtown LA ArtWalk.  @_showzart_/  @skidrobot/
