About this listen

David Cavazos, better known as Big Sleeps, is an artist whose work is displayed at museums from the Natural History Museum to the Getty. But his journey started during a turbulent youth in Pico-Union, where he honed his craft and created a style known as Indigenous L.A. Lettering. After surviving a harrowing adolescence, he found inspiration through tattooing & muraling, which catapulted him to adulation and respect from Japan to Venezuela to back home in L.A. This is the origin story of Big Sleeps.
