Continuing the story of the evolution of OPN HEART... LOVE WINS is inspired by one the early murals that featured the HEART. (Note at the time, the heart had not yet been named.) This mural was painted December 6th, 2017 on a gate in Chinatown NYC. The mural has a confetti-type vibe to it, so I created this piece to be visually inspired by the aesthetic of confetti, and conceptually, I love that confetti is commonly used to celebrate a personal win, growth, or accomplishments. Winning is not always about fighting or sports, and in this case, celebrating the personal win of scoring that mural, as well as the growth quietly happening with my work / career make this piece extra special. We deserve to celebrate the little wins as well as the big ones, because in this life, LOVE always WINS!
