Our LAND 15 memories continue: From 2018-2020, as part of Los Angeles Water School (LAWS), Oscar Tuazon’s functional artwork and experimental school, LAND hosted a series of public events devoted to the water of Los Angeles. ⁠
⁠
The series explored the complex life of water in Los Angeles, through the lens of local history, architecture, politics, and art. Through this collaborative process tracing how water connects diverse communities within Los Angeles and across the continent, working from a micro to macro understanding of policy and infrastructure, Tuazon created a setting for the exchange of cross-disciplinary ideas and learning.⁠ Participants included the late Tongva elder Julia Bogany, the Executive Director of Sacred Places Institute for Indigenous Peoples Angela Mooney D’Arcy, and Chairman Rupert Steele of the Confederated Tribes of the Goshute Nation, among many others. ⁠
⁠
Earlier this year, Tuazon released a publication on LAWS and a selection of recorded programs can be found on LAND’s website. Tap the link in our bio to learn more about LAWS. @_oscarwater_

Field Permits by artist Vincent Enrique Hernandez, organized and presented by Los Angeles Nomadic Division (LAND), is a work of civic institutional critique taking place over 16 successive Sundays on a soccer field at Albion Riverside Park in Downtown Los Angeles. ⁠
⁠
Every Sunday between December 22, 2024 through April 6, 2025, and from 2 to 4PM, Hernandez will invite the public to access a soccer field, and engage with it as they see fit. Hernandez, a 2024 MOHN Grant artist born and raised in Los Angeles, is an avid amateur soccer player. The artist has a deep interest in the ways that public space is mediated by city organizations, which often create unnecessary burdens and hurdles that prevent communities from accessing, and utilizing, recreational third spaces in their own neighborhoods.⁠
⁠
As part of Field Permits, Hernandez will inform the community of the availability of the soccer field for free play through posters and other materials that showcase his training as a sign painter, and which will respond to the architectural and design elements of the area. ⁠
