This artistic union presents an immersive body of work that inspires connection and conversation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis show is about merging hearts and words,\u201d said Ruben Rojas. \u201cIt\u2019s a reminder that love isn\u2019t passive\u2014it\u2019s something we choose, say and show.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWords are my medium,\u201d said WRDSMTH. \u201cNow, quite unexpectedly, I am a rising street artist. Bottom line, I love to write. And I do, every day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rojas left the corporate world in 2013 to build a life centered on one powerful feeling: love. Since then, he has transformed blank walls into uplifting murals, inviting communities to lead with love. WRDSMTH is a Los Angeles-based street artist known for his signature typewriter stencil and poetic phrases. He aims to inspire passersby with daily doses of motivation and reflection painted and pasted onto walls around the world.<\/p>\n<p>This exhibition marks the first time the two artists have shown together in a gallery setting. \u201cCarpe Every Single Diem\u201d will feature limited-edition prints, immersive installations, a selection of collaborative works and curated individual pieces by each artist, offering viewers a rare opportunity to engage with the art more intimately.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bruce Lurie Gallery is proud to present \u201cCarpe Every Single Diem\u201d, a new exhibition from acclaimed Los Angeles-based artists Ruben Rojas and WRDSMTH.
