artwork about LA water. At top, dried cracked mud. An LA aquaduct made from paper from top to bottom. Bottom has grass. Just about the grass is a running spigot.
For What’s on Tap: LA’s Water Story From Source to Spigot. Presented in partnership with: Avenue 50 Studio, California Institute for Water Resources, Arroyo Arts Collective, University of California Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources, UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation, and UCLA Water Resources Group. Curated by Jolly and Edith de Guzman.
Artwork on the glass of an old window. Decals, or stickers, of hands fingerspelling, and underneath, Braille spells out the message of the piece. A phone sits at the bottom of the window, providing live captioning. The fingerspelling, Braille, and phone say "When we build inclusive spaces, everyone can participate." By Diana Kohne
Open Caption was part of a juried installation on the subject of inclusivity. My work communicates its message in fingerspelling and Braille, giving typical viewers the experience of a communication barrier, as those with hearing and vision differences encounter regularly. During the receptions, the cell phone provided live captioning, converting spoken words into accessible communication. The show was supported by the Department of Cultural Affairs, City of Los Angeles, Audubon Center at Debs Park, and Dearantler.
art by diana kohne shows an umbrella with images in each umbrelly segment. Images are: a steak, a delivery truck, a throwaway coffee cup, airplane, major bank credit/debit card, a large home, an a/c unit and an SUV.
My work for Shade in LA, an installation of umbrellas at Arroyo Arts Collective curated by Jolly de Guzman, brought awareness to shade access. My work discusses ways the privileged contribute to rising heat and suffering, often, in the ways that they escape it.
