Our second feature from this summer’s El Segundo exhibition focuses on Jose Espinoza. A Mexican painter and illustrator residing in Long Beach, CA; we get to hear more about his amalgamation of the indigenous and contemporary. Espinoza talks to us about his work-from-home process and how he navigates ideation and production in a transformative space, the products of such an environment, and his connection to the arts in Santa Ana.
Espinoza and Santos shared their Undergraduate journey at CSU Dominguez Hills where they received their BA in Studio Art, found mentorship through the PRAXIS program, and reciprocated communal efforts through the DH Arts Collective. They would like to extend a special thanks to Devon Tsuno for his guidance and support.

We were recently introduced to Isai’s paintings focusing on his parents and their dry cleaning business in connection to South Central, Los Angeles. As he currently works on a third piece to this series reflecting his role running the shop with his family, we spoke with him about his previous work, and how it was influenced by the gentrifying real estate developments in his community.
While at Isai’s Inglewood home studio, he shares his experience of having to move due to the high cost of living after the gentrification of his neighborhood took hold. Isai further elaborates on how he perceives small business aesthetics versus modernized “cookie cutter” shop design, as well as the freedom to design your home outside of an HOA system.
