Stroll Garden is pleased to present Comfort Zone, a solo exhibition of new ceramic works by Los Angeles-based artist Diana “Didi” Rojas. Known for her sculptural interpretations of cult-status sneakers and designer footwear, Rojas uses the familiar language of fashion and consumer objects to examine how we construct identity, belonging, and belief through what we wear. This marks the artist’s debut with Stroll Garden and inaugurates the gallery’s new hybrid home-gallery space in the Hollywood Hills. With a deepened interest in repetition, ritual, and collective experience, Comfort Zone expands Rojas’s sculptural vocabulary beyond footwear to include clusters of symbolic forms—amulets, keychains, toys, trinkets, and the kinds of objects often dismissed as kitsch. These forms are not just playful, but potent: they reflect the attachments and meanings we project onto things in a culture of consumption. As Rojas puts it, “We’re constantly finding ourselves through what we choose to buy, wear, and believe in.” Throughout the exhibition, Rojas’s ceramic forms evoke both ancient traditions and contemporary habits of devotion. References to fire and pre-Columbian circle of friends, to meme culture and mass-produced Crocs (“the people’s shoes”), converge to question how we gather and what we gather around. Rojas notes: “The light that a phone emits triggers the same part of the brain that gathering around a fire would… It creates a false sense of community.” This dissonance— between connection and illusion, intimacy and performance—asks what kind of belonging is possible in a hyper-mediated world. Comfort Zone is a meditation on the objects we keep close, the brands and symbols we imbue with spiritual weight, and the search for comfort in a chaotic world. It suggests a blurred boundary between what is sacred and what is silly—between what connects us and what simply clutters. With signature wit and exacting craft, Rojas reflects the weight of the world back to us through its lightest, most disposable forms. Comfort Zone will be on view at Stroll Garden from June 7 to June 28, 2025. For more information, please visit stroll-garden.com. Contact philip@stroll-garden.com for the address.
