Artist Offers Haunting Meditation on the 2025 L.A. Fires for the Whitney Biennial

Artist Kelly Akashi has created a major installation for the 2026 Whitney Biennial titled 'Monument (Altadena)', a 13-foot-tall chimney and walkway made of clear glass bricks. The work is a direct response to the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires, which destroyed her home and studio, leaving only the original brick chimney standing. She collaborated with mason Christian Inga to meticulously reconstruct this remnant in a new, spectral form.

A burned Altadena lot becomes an art exhibit, sourced from remnants and sounds of Eaton fire

Artist Kelly Akashi, whose Altadena home and studio were destroyed in the January 2025 Eaton fire, has transformed the burned lot at 2650 Highview Ave. into a two-day art exhibition titled "Field Set," held May 23–24, 2026. The exhibit features Akashi's sculptural works made from fire remnants and a sound installation by collaborator Phil Peters, who used custom microphones to record the ongoing demolition and rebuilding sounds. Visitors were invited to sit on speakers and feel the low-frequency vibrations, creating an immersive experience that blends art with the physical memory of the disaster.
