About Shangri-Lost 5
Shangri-Lost 5 is the latest installment of the ongoing Shangri-Lost series by artists Jesse Harris, Jimmy Limit and Shawn Kuruneru. Disillusioned, dark and caustic, Shangri-Lost 5 is a raw amalgam of typography, photography and drawing; all in installation form. If violence had an official aesthetic, Shangri-Lost 5 would surely be it. This is an installation that should not be missed.

Artist Statement
"...it was about advocating kids not to wait to be told what to do, but make life up for themselves, it was about trying to get people to use their imagination again, it was about not being perfect, it was about saying it was okay to be amateurish and funny, that real creativity came out of making a mess, it was about working with what you got in front of you and turning everything embarrassing, awful, and stupid in your life to your advantage."
