Shema Love from The Creative Collective NYC is a multi-passionate creative based out of Brooklyn, NY, with roots in Philly. Her artwork is meant to evoke cultural nostalgia and her connection to basketball is just that. Her love for basketball runs deep- from making a homemade milk crate hoop with her brother on her block when she was a kid to having dreams to play professionally.

"This piece in collaboration with Deldon Designs titled, "No Ball Playing", is a tribute to the hoopers, the visionaries, the innovators, who may not have always had the means, but found a way to flourish anyway. There's nothing more profound than creating something from nothing"
