The City of Santa Clarita announces a new exhibition “Fortitude” by Sena Clara Creston which will be on view from March 24, 2025 – to June 30, 2025 located at the Canyon Country Community Center. Fortitude is a series of impromptu driftwood huts taken on mostly the same California beach. The enterable huts project security and fantasy, offset by precarious construction of dilapidated materials in an eroding landscape to create a sense of unease for environmental uncertainty. Fortitude displays the (un)natural and (de)constructive lives of large trees in this liminal landscape between where we were, where we are, and where we wish to be; inviting viewers to experience, empathize, and engage with their role in the imminent. (In)Secure structures in a deteriorating environment communicate the need to protect what we need for protection.
