El Mac and Retna are street artists, born in LA. They use building walls as blank canvases for their imagery, and the duo has collaborated to create murals all over the world. The result is striking imagery that is unique and recognizable as theirs. Wherever they go, they try to make something that makes sense for the neighborhood and the community. And they always make something positive, something the artists hope people can enjoy – regardless of whether life has greeted them with great fortune. Armed with a vision and their cans of spray paint, El Mac and Retna will transform a forgotten wall into a piece of art.
