Artist Lauren Halsey aims to make her community visible

Lauren Halsey, 31, is showing in two of L.A.’s most prestigious museums. She’s created a plaster, cave-like room you can walk through at MOCA downtown. And she has a big piece in the Hammer’s Made in L.A. exhibition. She’s trying to reshape L.A., or at least our experience of the city.
