HELY OMAR GONZALEZ

Lives and works in Los Angeles, CA and graduated with a BFA from Laguna College of Art & Design.

Born in 1984 to immigrant parents, Gonzalez grew up in a culturally rich and diverse home in North Highlands, CA.

Gonzalez’s work derives from his personal experiences and investigates a desire to communicate through representations of labor, race and leisure. His work often manages to exist between a documentary focus and the lens of narrative fiction.
