  • When Artists Stop Asking Where They Fit & Start Building Something New

    Recorded during LA Art Week near Frieze Los Angeles, this episode of Vessel: Art Is a Doorway captures an intimate salon-style conversation with artists Bobby Joe Smith III, Camila Galaz, Jonah King, and Joshua Dawson, gathered at Wilshire Online as part of the NEWINC community.

    Across practices spanning immersive media, speculative design, research based installation, and painting, the group reflects on how artists are navigating & reshaping the systems surrounding contemporary art. Together they discuss emerging technologies, shifting institutional models, and the growing desire to build new ecosystems for creative work beyond traditional structures.
