A canvas by Eddie Kim, executed in his characteristic style: quite realistic, bright, and somewhat naive. However, this only adds a certain charm and some fairytale-like quality to the work. And the work itself, based on a photo, only shows the connection between the man-made and the digital in our time.
On the canvas is the Eastern Columbia Building, an iconic Art Deco landmark located in downtown Los Angeles. Built in 1930 as the headquarters of the Eastern-Columbia catalog store, it quickly became one of the city's symbols thanks to its rich turquoise tile and glowing neon clock.
