Anonymous street artist, who goes by the guise of ‘Skid Robot’, through meaningful and subliminal murals along the streets of Skid Row, Los Angeles aims to raise awareness and empathy of extreme poverty by covering the walls, where homeless people live, with imaginary homes and sceneries . Apart from setting the display with the reason to bring joy and create knowledge of their precarious situation among people, he also meets the needs of the homeless by giving out care packages of toiletries and food when he drops by to do his paintings.
