This painted utility box is part of the Koreatown Northgate neighborhood improvement project.

This particular box, 2012 Reality Check In, was done by artist Fulani Carter. With regard to this artwork, Fulani says, "All Art is propaganda. From this simple idea my design took shape. Using the following elements; computer graphics, collage , specific colors and the use of thoughtful words, I have attempted to capture the viewer’s attention. For a brief moment I get them to internalize both the visual and deeper meanings of the following words. “Don’t Hate- CREATE; GET BUSY; The will-SKILL." The acrylic paint used is color specific in attracting the viewer to step in closer for a better reading of the designs and words."

Unfortunately, this box has signs of tagging.
