WOW x WOW  interviews CRAOLA to discuss his new body of artwork for his WHERE AM I solo exhibit opening this weekend at KP Projects.

WOW x WOW: You have an upcoming solo show entitled ‘Where Am I?’ opening at Merry Karnowsky Gallery on May 23rd. Can you give us a little insight into the ideas and themes you’re exploring in the new work for this exhibit?
