i took an image of some graffiti, when I was traveling, that always stuck with me. It’s the beautiful work of Tona. while he does his elaborate pieces children often gather to watch. While they watch he takes pictures of them and paints them on some other wall in some other city. His work that I captured resonated with me so I decided to create a portrait inspired by this boy to place him on another wall in another city.

white cotton painted, cut to shape, and mounted on wood.
