Clue? - CHI

Emmanuel Gomez, also known as Clue, is a Mexican-American artist born and raised in the Little Village neighborhood of Chicago. Using his art as a form of communication and expression, under his art alias he portrays positive messages and relives his experiences of growing up in Little Village through his art.

Clue’s signature character, a green alien with sharp ears and the main feature being its question mark for eyes, is often put in environments which tell stories of his shared lived experience through the lens of community members and personal experience growing up. He uses question mark eyes to resemble the many questions that arose when observing the struggles within his community at an early age.
