Kato, Hollywood Boulevard Possibly 1990 - 1994

"Kato, Hollywood Boulevard" is a black and white photograph taken by Jim Goldberg, likely between 1990 and 1994. The photograph depicts a young girl standing on Hollywood Boulevard, her face partially obscured by the large, smiley face drawn on her white t-shirt. The girl's relaxed posture and the blurred background of the busy street create a sense of intimacy and vulnerability, highlighting the stark contrast between her innocence and the potentially chaotic world around her. This work is characteristic of Goldberg's larger photographic series "Raised by Wolves," which explored themes of youth, poverty, and urban life.
