Diana Al-Hadid at Frieze Los Angeles
Booth D6
February 20 – 23, 2025
Kasmin returns to Frieze Los Angeles in February 2025 with a solo presentation of new wall panels and a sculpture by Diana Al-Hadid (b. 1981). In the series of panels, Al-Hadid explores the interplay of sky and landscape as a compositional foundation for her richly allegorical work. Known for her alchemical approach to material, Al-Hadid employs a controlled dripping technique, interlacing mass and void through complex layers of polymer gypsum, fiberglass, pigments, and metal leaf. By engaging with architectural forms—referencing ruins, historical structures, and sacred spaces—the work considers the impermanence of civilization and the ambiguous presence of the human figure. As they invoke ghostly apparitions of art historical characters and landscapes, Al-Hadid’s abstracted sculptural narratives allude to themes of memory, empire, and migration.
