Scrolls Book Release

Scrolls

“Scrolls” started at an airport about 9 years ago. Sven Barth began noticing that older men no longer had newspapers, they had phones. Entranced by these new devices they waited on their flights, completely oblivious to the outside world. And so, on every flight he took, he made it his mission to immortalize one of these older gentlemen. 7 years and dozens of flights later, Sven felt a book was the right way to collect this archive… and “Scrolls” was born.

In addition to the limited run of books, printed and bound by Sorella Studios, in Los Angeles, a selection of 20 of the original drawings grace the back walls of HVW8. They are framed by Sven himself with help from fellow frame maker and skateboarder, Josh Pall.

‘Paris De Noche’ World Premiere & Group Climate Listening Party

‘For the longest time I wanted to produce a skate video with an original soundtrack. Although not an entirely new idea, I wanted to try my hand at creating one myself. I believed in @n.rollings vision and execution in the way that he had always made skate videos and asked him if we should make one with our friends in which he obliged. We filmed extensively in NY, Philly, LA & Paris throughout 2023. This year was spent creating the music in which I am happy to finally announce with immense gratitude that @seedsofyaris and friends have provided the audio landscape for this project. Come join us this Tuesday at @hvw8gallery .’ – Sagen Lockhart

NOTHING LASTS – Raj Debah

Setting out on a meaningful journey to shine a light on an untold story, using the tools of mixed media shaped by photos, artifacts, collage, found footage, and video art. I use my work to connect with themes of human isolation and evolution to explore the complex story of nomadic assimilation. I focus on the scarcely recorded histories of indentured and indigenous communities with historical bonds to the West Indies. Uncovering their journey as a mirror to my own existence and a way to confront my struggles tied to growing issues of censorship, bigotry and oppression across the globe.

– Raj Debah

Born in 1978 in Manhattan NYC and raised up in the Bronx NY hailing from first generation immigrant parents from the West Indies. Raj Debah now lives and works practicing his art in Los Angeles California.

Opening Nov. 18th, 7 – 10pm at HVW8 Los Angeles
