Tree of Life is a 6.5’ x 8.5’ ceramic tile mural located on an exterior wall of the Bell Creek Apartments in Canoga Park, CA. Local youth from the Fernandeño Tataviam Youth Summer Camp, Camp Tamit, contributed the colorful flower tiles during a workshop facilitated by the artist. Children from the adjacent Guadalupe Community Center created the background tiles using objects they collected on a neighborhood scavenger hunt. The mural is one of three commissioned by the affordable housing developer, Meta Housing, for the new complex. Project assistance from Francis Araujo and Chaney Szeto. Masonry assistance from Andy Jimenez.
