Rabi (b. 1984) David Emanuel Mordechai Torres is an American artist of Puerto Rican and Polish descent from Los Angeles. Growing up in both Iowa and Southern California as a child of two immigrants, Torres quickly found comfort in the multifarious atmosphere of American life. Themes of contradiction, duality, and sociopolitical philosophy loom throughout his aesthetic.

The origins of Rabi’s art stem from his early life as a graffiti writer, skateboarder and muralist, in which he collaborated with many of LA’s legendary artists. Through skateboarding and graffiti, Rabi naturally obtained an obsession for practicing art in public spaces, as well as fervently capturing his personal world through video and photography.
