The crew and I just returned from art week in Miami where we painted this 110’x44′ “Invent Your Future” mural on Miami Edison Senior High School in Little Haiti through the RAW Project. We all play a role in shaping the future, but high school is an especially important time in developing the tools to mold it.  With this mural, I wanted to touch on issues impacting humanity and the planet with an eye on the future. I care deeply about equality, justice, empowerment, and the planet’s health, all of which I touch upon in this mural.  I hope the mural will serve as an inspiration to create and manifest the things we want to see in the world right now and tomorrow.

Thanks to Robert and Audrey from RAW Project for facilitating the mural. Thanks to my crew of Dan Flores, Nic Bowers, Rob Zagula, and Luka Densmore for the hard work on the mural and Jon Furlong for the great photos.
