RABI (born David Emanuel Mordechai Torres in 1984) is a first generation American [1] visual artist of Puerto Rican and Polish descent from Los Angeles, California.
[9][10][11] Through skateboarding and graffiti, RABI began practicing art in public spaces, as well as capturing his personal world through video and photography.
[15] While working with CYRCLE, RABI collaborated with artists, brands and non-profits including, HBO, Uber, Pharrell, TED Prize winner- JR,[16] James Lavelle, Chad Muska, Woodkid, AIDS Healthcare Foundation, and Audi, among others.
RABI's mural was painted over the summer in New York and the piece directly confronts the shattered educational system, "a result of an entire minority being barred just because of their beliefs."
The exhibition was a series of short art films that “explored the relationship between identity and the artistic process.” [22] Each short-film cross-examined [23] “the role of image in personal narratives and reimagines the embodiment of self, depicting a world free of conventional posturing,” said RABI.
[24] An interactive experience, guests were invited to utilize AR technology that cast imagery onto green-screen components throughout the space, including the building’s facade and different sculptures while experiencing the show.
