There has never been a better time in Los Angeles to consider the need for a heightened awareness of the city's homeless population. This is exactly what Francesca Lalanne sensed when she moved to the city four years ago. Concerned by the countless number of individuals living on the streets, from K-town to Downtown, the Miami-born artist embarked on a field study to have select conversations with them and capture their narratives. As a response to these stories, Francesca has created a compelling body of work consisting of hand- made prints using silkscreen over intaglio, sculpture and mixed media wall installations using drywall, plaster and plywood. In this series, her figurative work outlines the isolated spirits of her subjects, demanding the viewer to confront their reality.
