Description
Return to the light, Highland Park, Los Angeles, 1994, Carlota Boulevard and Avenue 41, Highland Park. Depicts two prevalent social ills, senseless killing of young people, and homelessness. The shaman in the center represents a healthy state of wholeness. Cesar Chavez represents vision, being focused. The elderly are symbols of rich experience and wisdom. The spirits of Pancho Villa and Zapata are there to signify strength and courage. The mural's title refers to the role of the spiritual in finding solutions. Acrylic, by Charles Freeman. Sponsored by Social and Public Art Resource Center. -- Dunitz, Street gallery, red. 2nd ed., p. 121, #14.
