ART TRUCK LA serves as an alternative way to present live artistic performances. Selcouth has created a mobile stage on a flatbed truck. The ART TRUCK hosts live dance, theater, and music performances free for its audiences!  

Each event is unique, sharing the works of different artists curated for each specific location. ART TRUCK LA aims to start an artistic dialogue between neighborhoods, communities, and local artists. A community-binding experience, bringing people together to experience art.

We have teamed up with some of the most talented artists in LA!

The first Art Truck LA event took place at The Other Art Fair, at Santa Monica's historic Barker Hangar, in April 2023.

LoCo : Cozē & Lotus 

Elizabeth ''Cozē''  Styles originating from Georgia has always had a passion for dancing. Like all great artists; she began by simply watching YouTube and picking up trending dances. The enjoyable hobby soon turned into a passion for studying styles such as Waving,  Tutting, Krump, Isolation, and House.

Cozē’s studies have lead her to great opportunities in music videos, live performances, and teaching workshops. Her talents don’t stop there; within the last year, she has launched her photography and videography brand  CozēClips.

Alexamarie  “Lotus” Alerte, was born and raised in NYC. She began her dance career at an early age. Studying ballet since the age of 2 she has managed to study at some of the most prestigious schools such as Dance Theatre of Harlem,  Alvin Ailey, & Broadway Dance Center.   Her foundation in ballet has been the gateway to exploring all other styles such as  Contemporary  Modern, Street Jazz, Tap, Krump and so many more.

During her dance career, she has shown up in Music Videos, Festivals, Parades,  Live Shows, and Commercials while spreading her joy teaching both youth and adults alike. In her more recent career, she has geared her focus to fitness and body alignment while continue to push her dance movement.

Cozē & Lotus will be sharing an original duet choreography that they have composed during the last months of quarantine. 

Yvonne Yifeng Yuan

Yifeng Yvonne Yuan converts the frequency of herself losing socks into the frequency of the pitches; she weighs raindrops to decide the weight of her noteheads. She is a composer, performer, and media artist, born and raised in China, and currently lives between Santa Barbara and Los Angeles 

Yvonne currently attends UCSB studying Music Composition as a Ph.D. student. She is also a master's student in the Media Art Technology department.

 

Erini

Erini, grew up in Greece, where she got into music by taking piano classes. She has been writing music and performing ever since. She has performed rock and pop concerts at local bars, jamming soul and funk tunes at friends' houses, and has been singing jazz and blues at restaurants around the city.  Every single one of these experiences has helped her with her songwriting,  her lyrics, and melodies. 

Eirini and her band are going to be sharing original songs on their live concert. Their sound is feel-good music with a lot of colors and flowers! It's a combination of organic raw sound with a modern twist. It is like Joss Stone meets, Lawerence the Band, meets Vulfpeck. She hopes to inspire people in loving themselves and mother nature!

Sam Young

Before he began composing, he enjoyed a career as a professional drummer, performing and recording with national touring bands Devotchka and The Samples.
