Lauren Halsey's immersive exhibition, emajendat, showcases her unique visual language inspired by South Central Los Angeles, blending cultural symbols, community activism, and artistic innovation.
Halsey described her work as an obsession with material culture, meticulously documenting her neighborhood's vibrant symbols—signs, slogans, and flyers—that celebrate local activism and businesses.
Through her installations, Halsey merges the past, present, and future, reflecting her interests in diverse cultural iconography, visionary architecture, and the energetic spirit of funk.
Her initiative, Summaeverythang, exemplifies Halsey's commitment to community empowerment for Black and Brown people, focusing on socio-political and artistic transcendence.
