I had a psychic reading done a few years back. I was told in this reading that something entering my life would enable me to walk through walls. It was a thrilling proposition as I had recently acquired a newborn puppy ...

Edwin Arzeta (b. 1986) received a BA in Fine Arts at UCLA in 2016. "By smudging marks or covering the design details of objet trouvé, I obfuscate that which might lead one to specific resolutions as I aim to keep a viewer in a holding pattern of their own memories, auditing time spent. "

Deborah Hede lives and works in Los Angeles. Her work can be found in numerous private and public collections including The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Frederick R. Weisman Foundation in Los Angeles. She was recently featured as WolfpackHQ's first exhibition inside the archives of Lee Mullican and Luchita Hurtado. Hede's exhibitions with LP include Drawing Past to Present, 2019; Sonne, 2024; and group show Afloat Afield, 2023.

Cyrilla Mozenter is known for her gouache-painted, pencil-drawn (and written) works on paper and hand stitched industrial wool felt pieces that include the transplantation of cutout letters, letter-derived and pictogram-like shapes. These works hover in the space between two and three-dimensions. Many of the titles and words that appear in the work come from Gertrude Stein’s writing. They are playful and absurd, defying singular interpretations. She taught for many years in the MFA program at Pratt Institute. This is her second collaboration with LP.

Rena Small's works have been exhibited locally, nationally and internationally. Her works are included in the permanent collections of the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles; the Norton Simon Museum, Pasadena; the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kansas City, Missouri; Contemporary Arts Museum Houston, Texas; George Eastman House, International Museum of Photography and Film, Rochester, New York; UCR/California Museum of Photography, Riverside, California; and WestLicht.Schauplatz für Fotografie, Vienna, among others. Critical reviews have been published by the Los Angeles Times; the New York Times; Flash Art International; Artforum; Art in America; and the Wall Street Journal. The artist's works have been published in folios and catalogues by Taschen; The Polaroid Corporation; Albright-Knox Art Gallery; and the Guggenheim Museum. Small earned MFA and BFA degrees at the California Institute of the Arts, Valencia, and lives and works in Los Angeles.

Nick Rose is a multidisciplinary artist based in Los Angeles, working across photography, painting, sculpture, and mixed media. Initially drawn to photography in his teens, his practice now incorporates oil, pencil, air-dry clay, candle wax, and spray paint, with drawing as a foundational element. During his early years in New York, he lived with the Danish artist Asger Carlsen, whose deep commitment to the unseen layers of a work left a lasting impression. His first solo show blended painting, sculpture, and photography, reflecting his resistance to a single medium. Now based in Los Angeles, Nick draws inspiration from memory and studied spaces rather than the city’s landscape. His recent experiments with image transfers from his photographs create ghostly, fleeting impressions.

Hope Stutzman (b. 1994, Oakland CA) is an artist based in Los Angeles.

Ryan Zhao’s (b.2000) sculptures elicit psychosexual dimensions to mass produced objects and images through various arrangements and installation methods. Her objects of interest are hardware and devices that support or harm the body, ranging from bike seats to doorknobs to leashes. Images that fascinate her are bodies in distress or under pressure, from a racing greyhound to a foot in a strappy heel. These objects and images that carry potentials of explosions or implosions are installed on windowsills, corners, or ceilings, to stage a freeze frame melodrama which the viewer’s movement activates, and new perceptions of everyday objects arise. Recent exhibitions this year include a group show at The Wolford house and at Long Play Contemporary.
