An exploration of how different communities spend time along the Los Angeles River, a 51 mile waterway largely channelized with concrete that cuts through various neighborhoods of the city. While people fish, skateboard, paint, play music, and have a quiet moment to engage with the landscape, egrets and herons roost in trees growing in the middle of the river. I began this project after going to paint by the LA River several times, and was drawn to the river as an unregulated public space where people converge with each other and nature and find respite from the city.
