Clockshop is a multidisciplinary arts organization that works to expand the dialogue around cultural production, politics, and urban space by commissioning new projects by contemporary visual artists and writers, and by partnering with diverse cultural institutions. The organization was founded in 2004 by artist and filmmaker Julia Meltzer to create opportunities for artists working in public space.

In support of the underpinning, a visual art commission by Rodrigo Valenzuela which will serve as both a sculptural installation and also a usable stage for public programming at the Los Angeles State Historic Park opening December 2023. The work will be a platform to explore systemic inequities around public land and private property ownership while imagining housing as a human right.
