Artist Statement:
As a Chicano artist, my work celebrates the beauty, culture, and resilience of my community. This piece captures the essence of the lowrider lifestyle—a symbol of pride, craftsmanship, and self-expression deeply rooted in Chicano heritage. The vibrant gold and red interior, with its intricate upholstery and custom hydraulic switches, reflects the artistry and dedication that go into creating these rolling masterpieces. Through this perspective, I invite the viewer to step inside, to feel the legacy of generations who have turned cars into canvases, streets into galleries, and movement into an art form. This is more than just a car; it’s a testament to identity, creativity, and cultural resistance.
