These Lovely Streets: Episode 18 | Ozzie Juarez 

These Lovely Streets: Ozzie Juarez. Juarez is known for using the realms of painting and sculpture to honor and revitalize ancient and recent cultural artifacts, languages, and histories. Inspired by the techniques, collaborations, ambitions, and ephemeral qualities of unsanctioned public art, Juarez incorporates excerpts of paintings he observes across the LA landscape into his own work.
NASCAR tapped Juarez to design the trophy for The Clash at The Coliseum. This trophy design is rich in symbolism, paying homage to the Mexican ancestors in Mexico City. It incorporates six Aztec symbols, including the Tlaltecuhtli, Ehecatl, Tlaloc, Xochitli, the Aztec glyph for flame, and Olin. #discoverLA
