Full Time Human Installation and Collection at Nepenthes Los Angeles

Currently on view at Nepenthes Los Angeles, the Full Time Human installation brings together original artwork, sculptural interventions, found objects, and a limited collaborative collection developed by H3LM Supplies, Mike Reesé, and Nepenthes LA.

This closer look highlights selected works from the installation alongside garments and accessories created for the project.

Artwork by Mike Reesé includes a mixed-media surfboard, surveillance camera installation, interactive magnet wall piece, and a cabinet display of collected objects and original artwork. Throughout the space, these works examine the relationship between technology and humanity through themes of observation, emotion, and memory, combining organic marks, symbolic imagery, and subtly subversive gestures with a distinctly lifelike and whimsical quality.

Presented alongside the installation is a limited collection featuring custom cut & sew garments, 32/2 ringspun cotton graphic tees, and collaborative accessories produced exclusively for Full Time Human.

The installation and collection remain on view at Nepenthes Los Angeles for a limited time.


FULL TIME HUMAN

An exploration of the handmade, emotional, and imperfect parts of being human in an increasingly automated world. Organic marks. Human touch.
