Oracles is a video work by Kim Schoen that features roses encased in plastic globes—real flowers spray painted with neon colored paint, and hovering in water—‘forever flowers.’ The video shows us the debris that has been accumulating in the orbs over the years Schoen has held on to them; biological life beginning to bloom again in the form of algae.

Schoen collaborated with OSO (One Sound Object) to have artists make sound works: ‘oracular pronouncements’ based off of three Delphic Maxims that having to do with time and aging (Think as a mortal; Accept old age; On reaching the end, be without sorrow.”)

On Saturday February 14, from 11:30 am —1 pm, there will be live performances of these sound works. Come join us for the closing of “In Bloom”, curated by James Fishburne, at The Forest Lawn Museum.

Artists performing: Patrick Behnke, Claire de Dobay Rifelj, Brendan Getz, Marcus Herse, Nicki Chen, and Pauline Lay.

We look forward to seeing you there~! by @cdrifelj

Thankful for family visits 💕 bye-bye for now. (Will she outgrow me before she’s 10?!).

Also, Carol Rifelj would have been 75 yesterday! So happy birthday too 🍾
