untitled cardboard studies, 2015 Gomez paints images of typical Southern California landscapes and architecture, but always populates his scenes with laborers working to maintain the space: landscapers, cleaners, maids, etc. Often drawing on visual references to advertising imagery and quintessential L.A. artists (such as David Hockney), the artist reminds us of the typically unseen low-wage labor that is always at work all around us maintaining both the public and private spaces we enjoy.
