Window Dressing - TEMPEST PROGNOSTICATOR
February 4, 2024
Randi Hokett
TEMPEST PROGNOSTICATOR
Feb 4 – Feb 17, 2024
Randi Hokett thinks a lot about isolation/connection, lust/love, birth/rebirth, volcanoes and plate tectonics, the
body, and the junctures between light and dark. Geology and chemistry both currently play a huge role in her
artwork. For her Window Dressing installation, Tempest Prognosticator, Hokett will produce a large mineral
painting on site covering the entirety of the window gallery space (both walls and the floor) using a variety of
humidity-sensitive minerals whose chemistries respond to one another and whose colors fluctuate in response to
subtle changes in the humidity, not unlike a kind of giant mood ring. Various elements within the overall
composition will slowly change from blue to pink and back again, depending on how the exterior and interior
humidity are impacted by variable changes in temperature throughout the day, including the very real possibility
of rainy conditions outside. Viewers can repeatedly return to the window to witness (and document) the shifting
colors of the giant painting.
Randi Hokett is an artist and Southern California native. She received her BA in Art History from UCLA and her MA in Art History and
Museum Studies from USC. Her work has been exhibited at LA Artcore, Irvine Fine Arts Center, Torrance Art Museum, Cerritos College Art
Gallery, Sam Francis Gallery, Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery, Lancaster Museum of Art and History, Finishing Concepts, and Claremont
Graduate University Art Gallery.

Randi Hokett
TEMPEST PROGNOSTICATOR
Feb 4 – Feb 17, 2024
Randi Hokett thinks a lot about isolation/connection, lust/love, birth/rebirth, volcanoes and plate tectonics, the
body, and the junctures between light and dark. Geology and chemistry both currently play a huge role in her
artwork. For her Window Dressing installation, Tempest Prognosticator, Hokett will produce a large mineral
painting on site covering the entirety of the window gallery space (both walls and the floor) using a variety of
humidity-sensitive minerals whose chemistries respond to one another and whose colors fluctuate in response to
subtle changes in the humidity, not unlike a kind of giant mood ring. Various elements within the overall
composition will slowly change from blue to pink and back again, depending on how the exterior and interior
humidity are impacted by variable changes in temperature throughout the day, including the very real possibility
of rainy conditions outside. Viewers can repeatedly return to the window to witness (and document) the shifting
colors of the giant painting.
Randi Hokett is an artist and Southern California native. She received her BA in Art History from UCLA and her MA in Art History and
Museum Studies from USC. Her work has been exhibited at LA Artcore, Irvine Fine Arts Center, Torrance Art Museum, Cerritos College Art
Gallery, Sam Francis Gallery, Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery, Lancaster Museum of Art and History, Finishing Concepts, and Claremont
