Mural<\/strong> created by Sentrock & Walter Payton Students<\/p>\n Inspiration and Brainstorming<\/strong> by Payton high school students<\/p>\n Concept and Design<\/strong> by Sentrock.<\/p>\n 2015-2016<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Joseph Perez, best known as \u201cSentrock\u201d is a self taught street artist. Sentrock witnessed street art as a form of expression, birthing his interest to pick a spray can and continue his artistic voice. His early works were developed from graffiti writing in Mexican-American neighborhoods. Sentrock\u2019s signature bird-mask over a human figure has become his most recognizable declaration.\u00a0 \u00a0Sentrock describes his bird-mask as analogous to humanity: a person who is able to find or escape to their freedom by placing them in a different reality. Through his work, he has become a catalyst for his community. His work presents undertones of hope, freedom and expression. His work encapsulates his background, history, upbringing, empathy, and compassion for his community.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nDate<\/h3>\n
