 Luis Gispert creates art through a wide range of media, including photographs, film, sounds, and sculptures, focusing upon hip-hop, youth culture, and Cuban-American history.Some of his sculptures incorporate objects identified with hip hop, such as turntables, chrome tire rims, and boom boxes, into functional designs usable in other manners, such as furniture.He first rose to fame due to his well received "Chearleaders" set of art photographs which he started in 2000 - several of the pics feature chonga style women, and helped to establish "chongas" as a Miami icon, comparable to "ghetto fabulous" images.
