"This work shows us a moment when one has gone deeply inside the dark waters of the self and returns to the surface. A moment of introspection and self-discovery."

About the artist
Locust
American
As an Apache First Nation man I wanted to express art that went outside of what would be expected from an indigenous artist. I spent many years doing live paintings at various festivals in order to feel the pressure of getting something done in a short time with chaos surrounding me. I’ve never felt called to do an art show but rather focus on street art, murals and other forms of artistic expression. I went to grad school for philosophy focusing on eastern philosophy and have a black belt in jiu-jitsu. I teach and compete in jiu-jitsu in the San Francisco Bay Area.
