Seventh Letter–the art collective of LA graf legends Retna, Saber and Revok–debut a new video installation on the façade of the Cal Trans building.
Jerico Woggon–using painted polka dots and thin wood sticks with color, Jerico composes on a canvas of hundreds of feet of chain link fence a visionary atmospheric environment.
