AfroSPK 'Tasty Cloud Series' was recently on view at Julian Peña Gallery July 17 - Aug 16, 2020
AfroSPK says his graffiti and his works on canvas come from the same place. “The work that I do on the street is all about reallocation of space and reclaiming space.” The same, he says, is true in galleries. “In a way, there is no difference. The energy is still the same. It’s just on canvas.”
