Winslow Garage

Winslow Garage is pleased to present Habitat, a selection of graphite drawings on frosted mylar that explore home, belonging, memory, and access through personal, familial, and ancestral histories. In these works, Adrienne Kinsella reflects on the shifting nature of place—how spaces, people, and connections can be lost, transformed, or reclaimed over time. Rendered in meticulous detail, these ghostlike translucent works blur the line between memory and reality, honoring loved ones, landscapes, and moments of refuge while examining the boundaries that shape our lives. Native plants and birds in flight emerge as symbols of resilience, healing, and the possibility of return. Accompanying the exhibition is a soundscape by Samuel Kinsella, featuring birdsong recorded during hikes in Griffith Park, a place of solace and renewal.

Adrienne Kinsella is a fine artist, working in a variety of media, focusing on drawing and painting. As a descendant of the Tongva of Los Angeles, issues of access and belonging, or lack thereof, is a theme that spans her work. Her representational works utilize native plants, examine interiors, exteriors and collapse timelines in an ongoing search for home. Earning her MFA from California State University Northridge in 2021, Kinsella has shown recently at La Mama Galleria in NYC, OXY ARTS, Art Bug Gallery, Dorado 806 and Launch Gallery in Los Angeles among others. In summer 2024, she was awarded a full fellowship at the Vermont Studio Center in Johnson, Vermont. Kinsella teaches at Otis College of Art & Design, and lives in Los Angeles.
