A Los Angeles citizen wanted change for local neglected bus stops in his community so he did by installing custom wood benches. The Los Angeles artist name  is unkown to date as he decides to protect his identity and stay anonymous he also protects it by wearing a bright waq’ollo Peruvian Andes mask. The story behind this incredibel  man is that he has a big heart as he cares for his community by installing custom wood benches that he supplies for and takes time to build each individual wood bench. He has installed over a dozen wood benches in the past 11 months taking about 15 to 30 minutes to construct each bench. These benches are installed in local neglected bus stops in Boyle Heights, El Sereno, and Downtown Los Angeles. The artist feels that the city refuses to build benches for them living in the neglected area so he decides to do make change happen as he installs his custom wood benches. Why does he install them? Well one day he had been waiting at his local bus stop but no pole or bench was there his knee was debilitating from an injury he suffered two years ago. He had told him self that if his knee got better he would build benches for bus stops with out them for change. Only problem was that some would disappear or broken into pieces and frustrates him but wont let it get to him as he continues to build benches for local bus stops in need.
