Green Eyes: El Viejo -- Work by Ben Cleeton
Community Folk Art Center

Community Folk Art Center
805 E. Genesee St., Syracuse

Green Eyes the Viejo copped out to a 7-year sentence after being arrested for possession of 300 grams of heroin in September. The photo series contrasts his life at home and on the streets of the Near Westside of Syracuse before his sentencing, with the impact on him and his family of his upcoming incarceration. Like Green Eyes' family, many within the Latino community feel the effects of drug arrests. While focusing on Green Eyes and his family, the show will include a series of portraits of individuals/families who have directly or indirectly felt the effects of the prison industrial complex.
