Living in Bushwick as a Puerto Rican means staying rooted in culture and community. Every year, the Puerto Rican Day Parade on Knickerbocker Ave brings that pride to life…and I channel that energy into this painting. I honor my heritage, celebrate resilience, and keep our traditions alive. This piece is where Bushwick and Puerto Rico meet, and it now lives at Kiosko 787 a Puerto Rican Restaurant located at 488 Carroll St, Brooklyn, NY 11215.
