The phrase "strangely populated tracts" does not refer mostly to non-white racial groups, nor to foreign-country ethnic groups; my intention is that most people are strange, therefore any city is strangely populated, including Los Angeles. So at the risk of being misunderstood I display this work unmodified. Race is not the main thing I'm thinking of when I mean strange. Nor should it be taken as an offense if I find someone strange...I find most people to be strange. I like the racial/ethnic/cultural diversity of Los Angeles: if I didn't, I would have moved away. I like strangeness as well, hence Surreal art is one of my favorite kinds of art.
