10 Art Shows to See in Los Angeles This July

Chiffon Thomas: Progeny
Chiffon Thomas’s bronze, stained glass, and steel sculptures fuse the corporeal and the monumental, invoking forgotten legacies of labor, communal perseverance, and historical injustices. Cast faces and heads splinter into panes of brilliantly-colored glass, and obelisks are topped by glass pyramids resembling stitched skin. In these moving and unsettling works, Thomas draws connections between our bodies, the spaces they inhabit, and the stories they tell.
