My gorillas are the uncensored human, laying bare a primitiveness we can all relate too. In a culture defined by the media’s constructed images, idolizing our super stars, we have been led to equate being aesthetically pleasing with personal satisfaction. Despite their large hairy bodies and prominent nostrils, the gorillas redefine super star. Poised in the nude, they greet you with genuine self-confidence in who they are. I also take my work to the public space, painting murals in the streets of Los Angeles and beyond, so they exist within our “civilized” environment, and remind us to be at peace with our own human nature.
