In June 2011, after purchasing the property located at 825 Berkeley Street, with his partner, Adam Corlin wanted to bring awareness to the impacts that are occurring in the world’s oceans. After much thought, Adam decided that installing a public art display would be a great way to impact the greater community by bringing the vision of Restoring and Protecting the World’s Oceans. In doing so, Adam Corlin contacted his friends at Heal the Bay and outlined his thoughts and ideas for the project, which would ultimately become, Oceans at Risk.

Once Heal the Bay was on board, Adam set out to find the artist to complete the project. Through a mutual friend, Randy Wild, Adam was introduced to Kelly “RISK” Graval, who agreed to join in the project. Adam approached “Risk” after reading a disturbing interview about “Risk” and fellow artists facing resistance from city officials, to paint legally in Los Angeles. When Adam approached Risk about painting his home to make a statement, he was shocked when Risk replied “that’s cool but let’s do something for the greater good.” So the two formed the AT RISK foundation and committed to make a difference.

Since 1985 Heal The Bay is committed to protect Southern California’s coastal waters and watersheds, including Santa Monica Bay. The rivers, beaches, and beautiful oceans are at risk. They are proud to bring light to this subject and make a substantial contribution via this Mural. All three of them are committed to helping Heal The Bay meet this incredible challenge.

The Los Angeles graffiti artist, Revok was recently released from prison.

After 44 days and 24,000$ of debt I am finally out of jail… Thank you soo very much to all of you people who showed your support with drawings, paintings, etc. It means a great deal to me that there are people out there that actually give a shit.

I fucked up and didn’t pay a fine or complete my court ordered community service in time… So i was arrested by the lowest of lifeforms within the L.A. Sheriffs dept.(The graffiti task force) while waiting to board a flight to Dublin at LAX. The sheriffs ended up charging me with 2 additional charges for painting 2 separate murals with the property owners consent… Apparently if you paint a mural in Los Angeles with the consent/support of the property owner it is still a crime if the said mural is not done in conjunction with the Dept. of building & safety(Never mind that the Dept. of B.S. has NEVER issued a permit for a mural) -It seems i am facing severe criminal prosecution and a major civil lawsuit if i ever paint a mural in Los Angeles again… Regardless if i am commissioned or endorsed by the building owner since i will never be issued a permit by The Dept. of BS.

Anyways thank all of you again for your support through my latest(HOPEFULLY LAST) battle with the law… This ship would have sunk deep into the depths were it not for the support of my family & friends to whom i owe a tremendous debt… I LOVE YOU GUYS, THANK YOU!

-And THANK YOU a 1,000 X’s to CASEY EKLIPS, AARON LEVANT, PAT TENORE, THE 7TH LETTER, KNOWN GALLERY, ASKEW, SAMANTH RONSON, TALLYWOOD, RETNA, POSE, 1XRUN… And last but definitely NOT least my lawyer Ton Nguyen.

And all the folks that kept my name alive in the street… RIME, ZES, AUGOR, AROE, ROID, GARY, EWOK, SEVER, STEEL, REYES, NEKST, VIZIE, VANS, CHAD MUSKA, BERST, JURNE, PHAT1, LADY DIVA, UTAH & ETHER, NOAH BANKS, WAIS, 123 KLAN, FLYING FORTRESS, WOW123, OPIEM, ALEX ONE, COPE2, BASK and anybody else i forgot or am not aware of… Thanks guys.
