Inaugural Art Project 01:

Part I - THE OTHER ART FAIR Los Angeles

Part I: Portal to Dreams

Part I of our Inaugural Art Project took place in Los Angeles, CA in February 2025 during The Other Art Fair.

This installation / exhibition took place a few weeks after the LA fires and we wanted this to be a dedication to the City of Angels. Over 8,000 people came through the art fair and engaged with ‘Portal to Dreams’ which was located at the Entrance booth where visitors were invited to write down their dreams, tying them to the installation’s fence. Inspired by the Japanese tradition of Omikuji, guests wrote down their wishes whether it was a hope for LA, a wish for our country, or a dream for themself. In this act of intention, we affirmed the belief that when a dream is written, it is destined to come true.

Featured artworks by Richard Ankrom, Yoon Chang and Mary Lai (curator/artist). Each piece had a compelling story and invited viewers to enjoy this slice of paradise that reminds us how resilient the Los Angeles creative community is and to keep dreaming.
