“Instead of guns I used pencils because pencils — it represents persistence. You can break a pencil in half, but as long as the lead is still there you can sharpen it and use it again… it is to remind people that in the murals that gentrification might be going on, but you have the power to write this history. You have the power to redo it and reload it.”
