i have to say, this was probably one of the best bowls i’ve made 😙

bún bò huế is a vietnamese noodle soup from Huế, in central vietnam. it’s not for the faint of heart — it’s funky, it’s spicy, and it’s got a plethora of textures and aromas that not just any curious eater could stomach or fully appreciate. we need texture lovers here. ❤️

bún bò huế has a rich yet clear, pungent broth made with lemongrass, mắm tôm (a funky fermented shrimp paste), beef bones and shank, pork hock, and much more — but i went with these bc that's what i like.

on top, a healthy amount of homemade sa tế — a spicy, aromatic paste made with shallots, lemongrass, garlic, two types of chili, more mắm tôm, nước mắm, and seasoning to taste.

it’s traditionally served with a ton of fresh herbs and vegetables — basil, cilantro, banana blossom, bean sprouts, whatever you prefer from the jardin du vietnam, if you know what i mean.

but the one that really makes it for me is rau răm, vietnamese coriander. i’m so steadfast about my ingredients that i brought this back fresh from paris. don’t tell anyone or i’ll have to kill you. merci beaucoup ❤️

Really grateful to be included in Shelley Holcomb’s thoughtful guide to the L.A. art scene for @latimesimage 🙏🏽🔥

“I love the way his work draws me into a layered dreamscape and rearranges my sense of time and space. Greg is also a great storyteller. Pulling from archival family photos and childhood memories as a fourth-generation Angeleno in West L.A., his work weaves together a certain kind of nostalgia that always makes for a heartfelt studio visit.”

Shelley and I spent some time together at the studio talking about memories, life experiences, and our relationship to time as we continue moving through life.

Having grown up in L.A. and being a fourth-generation Angeleno, it feels especially meaningful to be part of this reflection on the people and places that make this city’s art community so special.

Thank you, Shelley, for taking the time to visit, talk, and really look at the work. And thank you @latimesimage for sharing it. ❤️

"An art scene isn't held up by pristine white walls," Shelley Holcomb tells us. "It's built by the artists sharing a cig and an idea outside on the sidewalk." For our September issue, the @curate.la co-founder maps her ultimate L.A. art weekend from private studio visits to a Watts Towers pilgrimage. Find the full guide at the link in bio.

Shelley Holcomb knows a good L.A. weekend is crafted carefully: a few parts gallery hopping, a surprise reunion at an opening night, some good bites and heavy pours at the wine bar down the block. The @curate.la co-founder has been guiding Angelenos to the coolest exhibits and art spaces for the past 12 years, decoding the city’s creative sprawl one neighborhood at a time.

For our September issue, Holcomb treats us to her list of places, people and plates worth your visit as you plan your own tour of the city’s never-ending artistic maze.

What happens when creativity becomes more than a profession and starts becoming a way of understanding the world around us?

In the latest episode of INNSiDE the Conversations, we sit down with Shelley Holcomb Bolaños to explore identity, self-expression, and why preserving our creativity may be more important now than ever.

Against the backdrop of New York City, Shelley shares her perspective on art, humanity, and the power of staying connected to the things that make us uniquely ourselves.

Watch the conversation and discover a story that invites us all to look a little deeper.

Watch the teaser now and stay tuned for the full interview, coming soon to YouTube.

The Glass House sets the tone of our favorite season to perfection, and last weekend was no different. My storytelling of the annual Summer Party secures the historic site’s ongoing visibility among online enthusiasts of art and #architecture; #design and heritage; and a space for evolving social and #queer history.

This year, a first-of-its-kind installation by @knoll transformed the storied Glass House interiors with modern interpretations of design classics, alongside a new collection by artist and designer @dozie.kanu. For only one day, guests touched, sat, and engaged with the reimagined space, which offered a rare illusion of what living in the Modernist landmark must have been like for Philip Johnson and life partner, David Whitney.

Following a long tradition of live performance by legendary artists and dance companies at the site since 1967, Solange Knowles’ creative institution Saint Heron curated two live performances. Among works by Frank Stella, Bruce Nauman, and Robert Morris, dancers performed in the atmospheric Sculpture Gallery, before a captivating procession led guests through iconic architecture and landscape to the Pavilion in the Pond where an excerpt from Saint Heron’s ‘Glory to Glory,’ showcasing the works of #MaryLouWilliams, closed out a most unforgettable day.

+1 year of living! 🎂

Okay last year was such a push, I felt myself returning these questions often: “what is it all for?, and do you even like this?”

When I was a kid I watched my first ballet and something literally pulsed inside of me. I was an awe of people moving their bodies and being creative for a living. I tried everything, I danced, I wrote fiction, I dabbled in photography, production, experience design, etc. etc.

Looking at my life now I am feeling more like the woman I’ve always wanted to be become everyday, and that’s a blessing! I get to surround myself with people doing better than me, woman that I’m in awe of, & lovers that cherish me. I feel blessed this year and little bby jaade would be very proud xx
