Isabelle Adams’s *Civil Twilight* presents new paintings in thin washes of oil on linen, with a dry, dusty glow. Disguised or half-hidden figures—burglars, skeletons, icons—occupy interiors and doorways that feel both theatrical and private. Named for the light just after sunset, the show looks at costume and role-play, private feeling versus public image, and Los Angeles as a city where identity is openly staged.
