JERRY MAGUIRE VIDEO STORE CLOSING PARTY

Finished out my weekend by checking out the closing night party at the Jerry Maguire Video Store installation put on by Everything Is Terrible. They basically created a video store (remember those?) that was stocked only with VHS tapes of the 1996 classic, Jerry Maguire. EIT gathered its substantial stash by reaching out to people and asking them to send in their copies of the VHS (lovingly referred to as “Jerrys”) and contribute towards the project.

VIVA DA VEGAS

My crew and I just completed the largest art mural in Las Vegas on the side of the Plaza Hotel & Casino. The title of the mural is “Cultivate Harmony” and the imagery is meant to have decorative appeal, but also to remind people that peace and harmony with each other and the planet itself are the only way to maintain what sustains us.

WOMEN'S MARCH LOS ANGELES

Woke up at the crack of dawn, slightly hung over and met up with some friends to head up to LA for the check out the historical Women’s March in LA. Instead of driving up, we thought we would be sneaky and take the train up from Long Beach, but apparently we weren’t the only ones with that idea.

WOMEN'S MARCH 2018 LOS ANGELES RECAP

One year after the first Women’s March on Washington, people across America took to the streets again to stand and march together peacefully for Women’s Rights and Human Rights. With over 500,000 marching in Los Angeles alone, it was a day to remember. It was also incredible to see so many of the iconic We The People posters Shepard created for the Amplifier Foundation being used in the march, including an updated twist to his collaborative piece with Ari Mejorado calling for a renewed Dream Act.

Mike O’Meally: 25 Years of Skate Photography at the House of Vans London

There probably isn’t a more suitable venue to showcase Mike O’Meally’s documentation of the last 25 years of skateboarding; an underground venue for an underground subculture. It juxtaposes from the last time we were at the House of Vans London when Covert to Overt, photography of OBEY Giant by Jon Furlong, held a mix of fervent excitement, activity and a smattering of grime and live MCs; this couldn’t have had more of a different vibe.
