STREET PREACHERS - All Female Street Art Exhibition


"STREET PREACHERS" 

An All Female Los Angeles Street Art Exhibition




Street Preachers is a visual commentary on the social, political and urban life experiences as seen through the eyes of some of Los Angeles top female street artists. Street art has gained an unprecedented exposure to larger audiences thanks to numerous highly publicize gallery and museum exhibits throughout the country and around the globe. Street Preachers is not only a presentation of the work of female street artists but also a celebration of the unique artist community and urban life in LA. 

Street Preachers artists include: Kym from the famed LA graffiti crew CBS, Jules Muck, London born artist Sarah's Incognito, the ever so talented and always entertaining Annie Preece aka Love, Annie and is curated by Ashleigh Summer, who is also a featured artist.




With an opening reception on September 6th, 2012 at The Center for the Arts Eagle Rock, I had the immense pleasure to meet and greet each of these female street artists. It was a great chance to talk to these leading ladies and to take a gander of the world through their creative and special perspective. Each piece was unique to each own and at times provided a softer and warm side to Los Angeles street art, all while not compromising on their street edge. 


Below are selected shots from the opening reception on September 6th, 2012
