At the intersection of street art and fine art is the unique work of Joshua Patterson. Working entirely in spray paint and neon glass, Joshua has developed an immediately recognizable style characterized by his clown characters, Art and Justice. By giving these big concepts figurative forms, Patterson is able to play with the relationship between the two and explore complicated ideas with humor and pathos. He is a self taught artist.​​

"As a chicano artist, born and raised in Albuquerque, NM on the west side of the city, I believe art should be thought provoking and challenge the viewer to grasp the idea of what's taking place whether that be something that invokes culture, community or the state of where I am as a man finding himself daily. With my art, I use the idea of two subject matters - Art and Justice. I use this idea to tell the story of what their relationship looks like no matter the subject. I work with spray paint, hand-cut stencils, an 8 color palette and neon glass."
