"Bloom." -- a 2 Night Only Art Exhibition in Hollywood, January 20 and 21 -- celebrates AHF’s Activism Through Augmented Reality and Art

Through attendees’ own phones, the murals will go beyond the walls, revealing layered moments of movement, color, and sound. The experience invites attendees to pause, reflect, and engage with the artwork in a more intimate way — using technology to foster empathy, education, and visibility.

As a part of the new exhibition series, Activism as Art, “Bloom” highlights how Creative expression can support public awareness efforts and bring important social issues into shared public spaces.

The murals featured were created by Miles Regis and Fern Espinoza, whose distinctive visual styles explore concepts of selfhood, resilience, and transformation. Through augmented reality, their artworks are animated to reveal new dimensions and hidden details, allowing the murals to evolve throughout the experience. Motion and sound build upon the base compositions, establishing a conversation between the physical and cyberspaces. Together, the murals form a unified moment that celebrates the convergence of art and activism, strengthening the message, tone, and spirit of AHF’s mission.

Work from last year’s exhibition will also be showcased, featuring work from Heiro Veiga, Sam Kirk, Rae Senarighi, Bikismo, Antonyo Marest, and Jason Farmer, AHF’s Vice President of AHF Media.

Join us on the evenings of January 20 - 21, from 6PM – 9PM, at 6520 West Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90028. Free bits and beverages will be provided.
