PORTAL TO DREAMS:

FOR LOS ANGELES

(full video with audio found on EMS Arts)

‘Portal to Dreams’ curated by Mary Lai, featured her works alongside Richard Ankrom and Yoon Chang.

The activation was inspired by the Japanese tradition of Omikuji, visitors were invited to write down their dreams, tying them to the installation’s fence. In this act of intention, we affirm the belief that when a dream is written, it is destined to come true.

‘Portal to Dreams’ found life at The Other Art Fair’s Entrance Booth and this exhibition was a dedication to the City of Angels that came to life in a magical way. It was the inaugural installation launch of Mary’s new platform - Allied Special Projects during LA Art Week 2025. Looking forward to more project-based collaborations shining light on artists.

We showed simultaneously for SPRING/BREAK’S LA Virtual Collection which can be found HERE.

Stay tuned for Part II - ‘Mapping Memories: A State of Paradise’ coming to SB New York May 6 - 12, 2025 during NY Art Week.
