Man One’s newest mural located inside Park Place (at Jordan Downs in Watts) is a 5 story tall mural that was conceived with community input. The mural shows the roots of the community flourishing from the bottom floor as African Lillies, Mexican nopales & palm trees as they grow together making their way up to the next level. The words “FAMILY” & “AMOR” at the center catch your eye as raised arms, hands & fists reach up for the sunset yellow sky. The Watts Towers can be seen protruding behind the arms & a sea of stenciled hearts. Watts has always been resilient.

This is Man One’s second large public art project within this great community. Man One would like to thank everyone in the neighborhood who welcomed him & supported this project. Special thanks goes out to fantastic partner and client BRIDGE Housing, artist assistant Joel Lopez, videographer Vonjako, special coating crew from MuralColors, and Southland Scaffold.
