Pavel Acevedo's Utopia and Dystopia were created in part of the 'Utopia/Dystopia' portfolio, curated by artist Miyo Stevens-Gandara. Miyo invited 26 artists to each pick two cards from a full deck, incorporating a diverse range of interpretations and ideas into a single, unified collection. Here, Acevedo juxtaposes a solo woman with two men, depicting the diverse stories that create the Los Angeles narrative.
