In OZMO’s words:
I try to get in touch with reality’s nerve using images. For the Tenderloin wall, the strip club was involved, as well the crazy situation of the neighborhood where lot of homeless and desperate people live, laying in the street… so the idea came from the ‘Dejuner sur l’herbe (The Luncheon on the Grass) by Eduard Manet, where a very curious party is lying on the grass, chatting. The women could be prostitutes or “pure,” as artists thousands of years ago used nudity to represent. So, the work it’s referring to that particular wall, and that particular neighborhood, but also left free of any possible projection of thoughts and prejudices.” –Ozmo
