Minna Philips - October 5 - November 2, 2025

Prospect Art is pleased to present And He Built a Crooked House, a solo exhibition by Minna Philips, recipient of the 2025 NEW WORK Focus on Los Angeles grant. On view at Winslow Garage in Silverlake from October 5 through November 2, the exhibition reimagines Robert A. Heinlein’s science fiction story through sculptures and drawings that explore space, perception, and site-specific tension. An opening reception will be held October 5 from 4–6 pm. Open Sundays 12-2pm.

Sunday, November 2 at 1 PM
Winslow Garage, 3540 Winslow Drive, Los Angeles 90026

Join us for the closing event of And He Built a Crooked House. Minna Philips will present her artist book inspired by the short story by Robert A. Heinlein, exploring dimensionality in both physical and metaphorical terms. Each of the 19 pages represents a cube that expands and reconfigures, forming a visual narrative that unfolds toward a final hypercube, the four dimensional analogue of the cube.

The work is executed in graphite on watercolor paper (12 x 18 inches).
