A Certain Evening Light features a body of new works by Eyeone exploring the ever-present but often ignored details of modern urban life. The art features glimpses of the people and situations encountered while navigating the city of Los Angeles. The exhibition consists of mixed media pieces primarily on wood, site-specific installations, and a selection of hand-made publications on display. Also part of the exhibition will be a retrospective history of Eyeone's iconic Zapatista characters, their relationship to the Zapatista movement, and the collaborative nature of his street mural work.

Eyeone is a member of Los Angeles graffiti crews Seeking Heaven and Second To None and publishes the highly acclaimed journal Lost | Graffiti in the City of Angeles.
