About a month ago, Damany came to David Rodriguez (AKA Dr Gorilla) with an idea- to create a pop-up, drive-through, holiday arts experience that married massive murals, technology, large scale sculptural installations, and live entertainment and presented it in a massively public, but completely safe and "Pandemic Friendly" way. What was born out of that was tinsel Dallas, a brand new immersive arts experience that highlighted and celebrated the unique culture and inherent dopeness of West Dallas, and brought it to life through the eyes of some of Dallas' most respected artists. With David at the helm as the co-producer, this brand new experience shattered expectations during its two evening run, welcoming almost 1,500 people in just 8 hours. A multi-medium artist, David prides himself on not only his ability to create, but also his ability to facilitate creation and to provide platforms for other artists to walk more fully in their passions. In tinsel, David's expertise in this shone bright.
We talk comics as a language, graffiti as an art form, and tattoos of Byron's face- all in just over an hour. It's the lunch break you always wanted but never knew to ask for.
