homeLA presents Framing the Narrative: The Interplay of Architecture, Art, and Movement in Film, an intimate conversation between Simon Leung, Christina Burchard with Genna Moroni, and Clarissa Tossin with Crystal Sepúlveda, facilitated by architect scholar, Jia Yi Gu. Framing the Narrative will explore how modern architectural settings influence artistic expression in video and film. The discussion will highlight three projects: Simon Leung’s opera Act 2, filmed at the Fitzpatrick-Leland House; Clarissa Tossin’s Ch’u Mayaa, set at Frank Lloyd Wright’s iconic Hollyhock House; and the upcoming film by Christina Burchard and Genna Moroni, I am a disaster, this is a disaster, inspired by the Wolford House designed by James DeLong. Each project exemplifies the dynamic relationship between architecture and creative processes in visually compelling Los Angeles settings. Framing the narrative will be held at the Wolford House in Mt Washington on Saturday, January 25, 2024, from 3:30-5:30p, with a sunset reception.

Framing the Narrative is part of homeLA’s residency at the Wolford House in January. It is hosted by and presented in partnership with Lena Daly of the Wolford House.
