Tavares Strachan: The Day Tomorrow Began, the artist’s first museum exhibition in Los Angeles, invites viewers into immersive multisensory installations. Each of the exhibition’s rooms presents a distinct environment, from uncanny everyday spaces to a field of rice grass populated with ceramic figures to a gallery of monumental bronze sculptures. Strachan is interested in what has been rendered invisible within mainstream narratives. His singular artworks—across media including neon, ceramics, bronze, painting, text, music, and performance—illuminate stories through which new ideas can emerge. Strachan was a recipient of the 2014 LACMA Art + Technology Lab Artist Grant and in 2022 was named a MacArthur Foundation fellow.
