Process: Phases and Faces Opening Reception Saturday Evening 6-9PM

Written by:

I was writing a bio element for my show in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles, that opens this Saturday and I realized that I was emphasizing this blog in the text.  This blog that I have not posted on in a week.  [This reflection is probably no different than beginning a diary entry with an apology for neglect.  Or maybe counting the days since last confession.  Anywho…]

I’ve been working on a second solo show, since my first one 5 years ago, and I’m really excited about having a deadline to get it all together and share it with you all.  The opening is this Saturday, August 13, 2016 at Opodz 362 E 2nd St. Los Angeles, CA 90026 from 6PM – 9PM.  The producer of the show and the Opodz go-to, Sasha Ross, and art/music/event promoter/producer Elliot Next, helped me focus and install the show.  I’m so grateful to Opodz for the space and time.

We’ll have great music from Elliot Next, drinks and snacks, coloring books, maybe chalking…good times!

Here’s some of my process on creating the price list and layout.  You should come to the show!  The info is below!

I update my Exhibition Page with events and galleries Lorna Alkana Art is featured in.

I post twice a week in two sorts of ways:  In the beginning of the week, I share new art/discussions about the process of works in progress.  Around Friday I post segments with Comic Lorna in my audiobio comic series called, Affect.

    […] “PHASES and FACES explores asymmetry, community, process/creation, feminism, identity, and memory. It’s a remix of my past five years as an artist, though much more organized. It’s complete in omission and re-imagination. […]
