The exhibition will include Weir’s latest body of work, which explores the emotional complexities of contemporary life. In this series, “she meticulously and earnestly chronicles the internal response to chaos brought upon us through outside circumstances,” according to Launch LA.

“Each piece is an intricately detailed work of graphite on clay panel with flowing forms reminiscent of flowing rivers,” according to the gallery.

Weir studied fine arts and drawing at the University of Kutztown before moving to New York City, where she studied art history at Pratt Institute.

Launch LA is located at 170 S. La Brea Ave.
