Kelly Akashi and friends celebrate Altadena's resilience after Los Angeles wildfires

Artist Kelly Akashi created "Field Set," an installation and performance on the site of her former home and studio in Altadena, California, which was destroyed by the Eaton wildfire last year. The project, supported by the nonprofit Los Angeles Nomadic Division (Land), featured salvaged materials, hand-blown glass orbs, wildflower plantings, and a soundscape by artist Phil Peters, drawing around 500 visitors over two days. Akashi integrated remnants from the fire into her recent Lisson Gallery show and has been awarded the Hyundai Terrace Commission for the 2026 Whitney Biennial, where she will present a glass replica of her chimney titled "Monument (Altadena)."
