How do you evolve toward your future? This question encapsulates the essence of ‘GRIT & MAGIC’ by Los Angeles-based creative collective and non-profit, DREAMHAUS. Staged at SUPERVSN, the group showcased the final projects of their internship program this past weekend. The show was presented in hand with “The Road To Lost Emotions,” DREAMHAUS’ 360° mobile excursion.

Founded by Nikkolas Mohhamed and Mike Reesé in South Central, DREAMHAUS looks to fine art to inspire and support local young creatives. ‘GRIT & MAGIC’ welcomed the city to the minds of four burgeoning artists—Kaya Balugo, Tina Rudasingwa, Youree Choi, and Dylan Uema—following the completion of their summer internship season. The program served as a compass for participants to navigate their place in the creative economy, sharpening each individual’s goals and interests. Projects included a mixed-media animation, a tactile magazine, a short film, and a 21-day anti-burnout ritual; each enlivened with unique vibrancy.

The exhibition was held alongside “The World’s Playground of Lost Emotions,” a reimagination of the DREAMHAUS art car. Adorned in custom leather and floral print, the piece manifests what pours into the group’s creative method. The tactile and interactive elements of the car gesture toward the importance of identity, purpose, and connection. Reaching new heights, DREAMHAUS harnesses creative grit to make the miraculous.
