Losi\u2019s diagnosis of CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome) is severe chronic pain in all of his cells due to a progressive disease of the Autonomic Nervous System. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"LOSI FUNDRAISER TRICKS EDIT V3 Large 540p\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8BqHcVwCIXI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Subliminal Projects will be hosting a Legends of Skateboard Art exhibit to launch at auction to raise funds for Allen Losi to help him beat CRPS, return to everyday life, and one day even cruise on a skateboard again. Physical pain is a constant in Losi\u2019s life, no thanks to this disease, but spending over $350,000 on medical bills alone has also caused financial pains.

The space serves as a place in the community that cultivates ideas and allows free discussion about art, music, and activism.
