NY street artist WhIsBe brings his unique brand of social commentary to Band of Vices for his first LA solo show, "Innocence Lost". A focus of the show is a commentary on gun culture in the US, as it relates to our youth, in particular, mass school shootings. WhIsBe aims to use art as a powerful, emotive tool to keep the discussion relevant and urgent, as opposed to this happening only in response to news reports of the next mass shooting. Shootings that are happening with a worryingly increasing frequency, lulling the nation (with the help of politicians and media) into a state of numbness and acceptance, that mass shootings of children is unavoidable, and ludicrously, the status quo.
