Description

One of the most important parts of L.A. specifically, is the multi-cultural mosaic of beauty that resides here, that is brewed here, that breathes life from the streets to the valleys. With said present culture, also comes the emphasis of acknowledging its past, and the original indigenous peoples that above all were the primary seed of the L.A. we now know today; the knowing that at one point in time, they were forcefully stripped away from their cultural identity and traditions, and that presently they can honor them once more, proclaiming..."We are still here." This piece is in honor of those that uplift the core of who they are, the original people of L.A.--- the Gabrielino/Tongva...we reside on Native land. May the history of the land, and its people be also carried into the future and never forgotten. Medium: Photography BIO: Artist, published writer and photographer-- specializing in portrait/lifestyle and commercial photography.
