“Chicano photographer Eriberto Oriol is prolific. The heavy tone of his L.A. photographs were gripping portraits I had admired for years. We met at Self Help Graphics in East L.A. during their annual Print Sale and discussed a future collaboration. I was honored as he photographed my family that day. Eriberto wanted to support the work of my company Apache Skateboards (AS) as we travel, skate and work in various Native American communities. He asked me to select a photograph of his to work on. He later gifted AS two large limited edition works screen printed at Richard Duardo’s “Modern Multiples” in L.A.”
