Lowrider car culture in Los Angeles is alive and continues to thrive in the city, suburbs and any place where Latinx people gather and live. This painting came about from a wanting to create an artwork where new and old, past and present, the natural and man made exist in the same composition.
My first experiences looking at art that reflected my culture and community came from a Lowrider Magazine someone gave me around the age of 15. There was a section where people could send in their hand drawn art. I remember sitting and copying the images and logos. |
