The City of West Hollywood announced the debuts of the next exhibitions in the Moving Image Media Art (MIMA) program. Artworks by artists Alexandre Arrechea, Kordae Henry, Sarah Cwynar, Da’ Shaunae Marisa, Jessica Wimbley, Richard Mapes, Pixslface, and Shoji Yamasaki will display at the top of every hour on various digital billboards on Sunset Boulevard (Los Angeles, California) from Sunday, February 1, 2026, through Sunday, May 31, 2026. Cuban artist Alexandre Arrechea will present “Sunset Garden.”
Sunset Garden by artist Alexandre Arrechea examines architectural forms to uncover the choices, values, and tensions that shape our built environments, encouraging audiences to think differently about how these spaces influence everyday life. Through 3D-rendered bee and mask sculptures, the artwork explores the connection between space, community, and society. The work draws inspiration from the history of the Sunset Strip, the artist’s roots in Havana, and the gardens of Monsieur Balmain’s Villa and Olivier Rousteing’s immersive virtual reality designs. The artwork can be seen at the top of every hour on the digital billboard at 8497 Sunset Boulevard (The Now). [. . .]
