Tasanee Durrett: Sacred Vessels: Healing and Memory in the Black Diaspora
Opening Reception: Friday, September 4, 2026 | 7–9 PM
September 4–December 13, 2026
Orlando-based multidisciplinary artist Tasanee Durrett presents this exhibition examining the intersection of healing and identity within the Black Diaspora. Drawing from her architectural background, Durrett creates abstract figurative works that blend human forms with botanical elements, crafting a visual language that connects ancestral wisdom with psychological restoration.
Her mixed-media works investigate how environmental knowledge intertwines with mental wellness and cultural identity, focusing on the neck and head as sacred vessels of memory.
Through techniques of pointillism and one-line painting, vibrant flora and architectural elements serve as symbols of resilience, while intricate linework bridges the built environment, natural world, and human consciousness. Each piece advocates for a return to ancestral knowledge as a pathway to contemporary healing.

Beneath A Clear Blue Sky: Photographs of September 11 is a poignant 25th-anniversary memorial exhibition featuring firsthand photographs taken by artist David Forrest in New York City on September 11, 2001.
Captured from Brooklyn as the attacks unfolded, these powerful black and white images document not only the tragedy that transformed a nation, but also the resilience, compassion, and quiet humanity that emerged in its wake. Through museum-quality prints, thoughtful interpretation, and opportunities for reflection, the exhibition offers an intimate and deeply personal perspective on a day that continues to shape our collective memory.
More than a historical record, Beneath A Clear Blue Sky serves as a moving tribute to those affected by the events of September 11 and invites audiences to consider the enduring strength of the human spirit beneath even the darkest of skies.
