MOCA

MOCA exterior logo and trees
Last Tuesday featured a trip to the Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles because neither my friend nor I had been there. Our destination was the current exhibit, Diary of Flowers: Artists and their Worlds:

The exhibition features work in all media across different geographies, cultures, and periods, by artists including Belkis Ayón, Abraham Cruzvillegas, Mona Hatoum, Candice Lin, Annette Messeger, Wangechi Mutu, Lucas Samaras, Mohammed Sami, Tunga, and Haegue Yang, as well as a gallery dedicated to Nan Goldin.

Despite imagining I'd carefully taken a picture of each artwork description, because I didn't organize everything correctly, a few of these pictures present as "untitled." This learning experience taught me to write down titles and descriptions in the future.

But first! My first ever experience in a Waymo! Have you heard of these self-driving Jaguars? They're not everywhere yet, but I think LA is one of the biggest markets and I see more and more of them every day.

These extracts from the larger photograph also are "Untitled" because the description ran out even though I got the correct one. My capture of the entire artwork turned out completely turquoise.
