An adventurous Sunday afternoon tour around East LA produced a spontaneous street art find. At the corner of Normandie and Santa Monica, the block has been transformed into an iconic ode to womanhood, in red. Whatever it really means doesn’t matter. But show-stopping it is. Driving around the block a second time was worth it just to capture a “drive-by” photograph.
