This month, the art community in Los Angeles is set to witness an extraordinary exhibition by
Halim Flowers at Una Casa Privada, a prestigious private home showroom curated by Una
Malan, located in the scenic Hollywood Hills. The showcase, during the Frieze LA art fair,
represents not just a display of artistic prowess but a testament to human resilience and
transformative power.
Halim Flowers, whose journey of overcoming adversity to become a celebrated artist has been widely
recognized, will present his latest works in an exhibition that is as emotionally stirring as it is visually
stunning. Convicted to two life sentences as a teenager, Flowers spent 22 years in prison, where he
found solace and a means of expression through poetry and art, turning his plight into a source of
inspiration.
During his incarceration, Flowers embarked on a path of self-education and creative expression,
utilizing his experiences as a backdrop for his work. His pieces, known for their vivid colors, bold
textures, and deeply emotional narratives, reflect his unbreakable spirit and offer insight into human
endurance and the redemptive capacity of hope.
The exhibition at Una Casa Privada marks a significant milestone in Flowers’ life and career. It is
not only an opportunity for art lovers and collectors to experience his work firsthand but also a
moment for Halim to share his message of resilience, transformation, and the redeeming power
of art with a wider audience.
In conjunction with the exhibition, Halim Flowers has designed an exclusive collaboration with
ReWeaveLA, a social enterprise known for its commitment to sustainability and community
upliftment. Together, they are launching a limited edition selection of tote bags and clothing,
each piece adorned with Flowers’ distinctive artwork. This collaboration aims to merge the

worlds of art, fashion, and social consciousness, offering fans a unique opportunity to own a
piece of wearable art that carries a powerful story of transformation and hope.
Una Malan, celebrated for her discerning eye and dedication to showcasing extraordinary talent,
expressed her enthusiasm about hosting Halim Flowers’ work and the collaboration with
ReWeaveLA. “Halim’s art and his journey represent a powerful narrative of strength and beauty.
We are thrilled to present his works and the exciting collaboration with ReWeaveLA at Una Casa
Privada, inviting our guests to engage with art that is not only visually captivating but deeply
meaningful,” Malan remarked.
The Halim Flowers exhibition is an invitation to explore the profound impact of art as a means of
overcoming adversity, a narrative that Halim Flowers embodies in every brushstroke
