I'm from one of those rare families that arrived in Los Angeles five generations ago and hasn't left. Everyone comes to LA and everything is already here! But, it's getting harder to stay. Some days I feel betrayed by LA's rising prices and foreign real estate cash. Other days, the city delights with new experiences and comforts with familiarity. Most days, however, I keep my head down and hustle, knowing I am one of the lucky ones. Yet I find myself saying protectively, "Don't go there: terrible traffic, low wages, struggling work force. You wouldn't like it." My declarations are honest, but deceptive. LA's also optimistic. “She's open minded. She accepts your history but embraces the future. You can disappear and be found in her at the same time.”
​
Fragmented Realities: City of Dreams is a beautiful, frenetic and bewildered love letter to Los Angeles in the form of an immersive installation. Free-hanging paintings composed of layered elements of street lights found throughout the city are framed by maps of sprawling highways and punctuated by observation benches. Appearing as stoic protectors of the city’s many streets, the lamps collectively evoke a rich history that has paid witness to the ever-changing and current contradictory landscape. The installation is emblematic of our exciting, uncertain and ethereal experiences of this rapidly developing city.
