Photographer Ernie Somoza installs the exhibit of his work before the doors open on the monthly RAW Natural Born Artists show at Plush in July. The show gives new and emerging artists, in music, performance, fashion and a myriad other disciplines, a venue to strut their stuff.
On an August night, nearly two dozen visual and performance artists - from musicians pounding out punk rock and rap to hairstylists crafting runway-worthy high-piling 'dos - filled every wall and nook of Plush for the monthly showcase of Raw. Since the inaugural event in February, Raw has become a magnet for Tucson's emerging independent visual and performing artists.
