 I made you want to be Skid Robot. One night I was out with my girlfriend at the time cruising around downtown doing some graffiti and I kept expressing to her how I wanted to do something different and she takes notice of someone sleeping on the floor, this is in the Skid Row area and she said well why don't you paint that person dreaming of money and I said that's brilliant. Can you show me some of the artwork that still exists? This is the original piece I did here that has a surrealist look when you drive by and you see a tent and you see the the landscape of everything around it and then all of a sudden a mountainous landscape appears. I'm not saying that that art is going to change her life however if it reminds you of home, home creates a certain feeling of peace. I think what Skid Robot is doing is just amazing. He's not looking for any kind of self-acclamation, he's not looking for any kind of self-glory and the way he's doing it, he's calling his own shots. What's up? We're looking for a place to do an art installation. I kind of need this on the row somewhere because I'm creating an oasis in the middle of Skid Row. What are we doing down here today? We're about to change the landscape, to change the perception on homelessness by turning this into an oasis in the middle of Skid Row. As simply as I could put it, I'm a human being and I care about what goes on around me. When I see people living in these conditions it makes me feel bad. My goal is just to take them out of the harsh reality that's so consistent and break that held captive by reality set free by the imagination.
