Artist FAITH-ANN YOUNG joins contemporary floral designer VAL JURADO for a one day installation at PARK + LEX STUDIOS — to create SANCTUARY : SANCTUARY CITY - a much needed, temporary sanctuary for reflection, comfort, and connection for our community in this tender moment for Los Angeles.
Young’s diaphanous textile sculptures will drift overhead while Jurado’s vibrant floral installation and altar honor both the spirit of the city and those affected this year by the fires and ICE raids.
Guests are invited to pause, process, journal, and listen to ambient sound meditations. Visitors may add to the altar with a candle, note, or offering, shaping the work into a living monument of collective memory and care. This space is a gift to the community, so come and experience this place of rest + repair, a much needed gift to the community during this heavy time in the city.
