This marks Crear Studio’s 1-year anniversary of exhibiting a series of shows prioritizing local artists of color. In tradition to last year’s inaugural show “iEL BAILE DE DÓLAR QUE NUNCA TUVE!” (The Dollar Dance I never had) by Albert Lopez, Jr., Crear Studio livestreamed via Instagram a window unveiling for Lule on August 6 during first Saturday Artwalk.

“When people ask me how or why I got into art after being in prison, I tell them, ‘I do it to stay out of prison,’” Alberto Lule says. “I use my own experience and agencies of authority to examine and critique the California carcel state, and also tie in immigration, homelessness, and mental health issues.”
