Roberto Lugo 's North Philadelphia neighborhood was filled with graffiti and street art when he grew up. And the 32-year old says that played a big part in forming his aesthetic sensibility. Lugo believes art is for everyone and his ceramic sculpture and functional pots and mugs (featured in the Juvenile In Justice exhibit at Crane Arts last year) make points about that. We spoke with Lugo last December, surrounded by his beautiful pots decorated with colors and patterns from rival gangs. In our conversation, Lugo talks about the difference in people's perception of a bandana when he wears one, and when, for example, his Caucasian wife wears one. Lugo says art saved his family.
