My World & Why Street Art Matters
FIAT 500c “My World” featuring Jennifer Lopez Commercial
The FIAT 500c “My World” featuring Jennifer Lopez tells the story of how the simple elements of our upbringing help define who we are and where we’re going. “They serve as a source of inspiration to achieve our goals in life. That drive and determination is the common thread that is shared with the FIAT brand. – Life is Best When Driven. ”
I know the creative talents of street artists have influenced my upbringing, as well as many others. Street art is an effective way of up lifting our communities. Especially in cases of abandoned homes, or old warehouse buildings such as 5Ptz, located in Long Island City, it draws attention to the structure as “potential” not as something to be feared of hated.
Instead street art has not only contributed to the identity of many neighborhoods, such as DUMBO’s Water Street Mural. Its has also created a voice, not only for the artists who contribute to their neighborhoods but the people who surround it, like Williamsburg and the Lower East Side of New York.
Street art allows us to view things differently, the artist invites us to look beyond the “structure” of what is there and see the possibilities of what it- what we- can be. – epitomizing the reality that change is natural, and can be made without losing a sense of identity of who we are. It is a powerful message that relates to the thriving community in our boroughs, and reminds us to challenge ourselves to be open to evolution, but to never forget the structures of our being.
