16813 was the residence of my grandparents, a place surrounded by a supportive community. It served as a safe haven where they tended land, fixed cars, shared meals with neighbors, and enjoyed card games at parties. The graffiti-covered staircase introduced me to art, merging words, drawings, and life itself. Reflecting on my grandfather's passing, I recognized the profound influence their home had on my life. This exhibition celebrates their warmth, culture, and wisdom through a collection of new-scale oil paintings, offering a final tribute to my family's legacy.
