Art Installations

Ariel Zana is a producer and multidisciplinary artist based in Los Angeles. Working across participatory installation and immersive experiences, her practice explores vulnerability, self-reflection, and the ways shared experiences can foster human connection. In February 2026, she debuted her first interactive installation, I Always Knew the Words, I Just Didn't Know How to Say Them, in Los Angeles' Little Ethiopia neighborhood. The installation invites participants to answer prompts written on mirrors, transforming individual reflection into a collective work shaped by every person who engages with it. Through simple acts of honesty and participation, the installation creates opportunities for strangers to connect, share stories, and recognize themselves in one another. Her work investigates how conversation can become a form of art—one that encourages empathy, curiosity, and a deeper sense of community.

Founded in New York in 1985, the Guerrilla Girls are anonymous artist activists who use disruptive headlines, outrageous visuals and killer statistics to expose gender and ethnic bias and corruption in art, film, politics and pop culture. Their ‘Complaints Department’ invites visitors to air grievances (about the state of the world or anything else they want to express) on giant chalkboards alongside GG billboards. Gorilla masks conceal their identities; dead female artists serve as pseudonyms. Their motto: Do one thing. If it works, do another. If it doesn’t, do another anyway. Keep chipping away!

Jenny Holzer is an American artist who uses text to explore and question contemporary life. She is known for billboards, light projections, and electronic signs that display ephemeral meditationson power, trauma, knowledge, and hope. ‘IN A DREAM...’ is a new installation created for Daisy Chain Fields. Holzer’s work rivals ignorance and violence with humor and kindness, surprises people, and ignites conversations outside of art spaces.

Jordan Ann Craig is a Northern Cheyenne artist living and working in Pojoaque Valley, New Mexico. Known for her large-scale paintings and prints, Craig's abstract compositions are characterized by a dynamic exploration and interpretation of Cheyenne material culture. ‘To Daisy, My Girl’ is a site specific commission inspired by a Cheyenne beaded bag, and the title is a tribute to the artist’s late dog, Daisy. Horizontal pink stripes are interwoven with a yellow Cheyenne motif, creating a rhythmic pattern that also evokes the brightness of blooming daisies. Incorporating vivid colors, recurring patterns, and interwoven forms situated in grids, Craig's work explores and celebrates her Native ancestry, posing questions about the languages of modern abstract painting and the relationship to both historic and contemporary Indigenous culture.

Feeling lost? Unsure what’s on the horizon? Find yourself in Fata Morgana. A chance for reflection and a souvenir for direction. Kelly Wall is a sculptor known for creating highly crafted, hand-made objects that replicate commercial props, souvenirs, and Hollywood set design. Her work frequently elicits themes of nostalgia, utilizing bygone-forms and language to explore optics, emotional perception, and perspective. Her newest sculpture, ’Fata Morgana (Lost & Found)’, an interactive penny press installation, invites viewers to reflect on the experience of being “Lost” while questioning the signs and symbols one looks to for guidance in life. Named after the rare atmospheric optical illusion, the piece nods to the Hollywood trope of wandering a desert in pursuit of self discovery, transforming architectural space into a dreamlike portal. The work builds upon Wall's signature style of replicating commercial props and souvenirs to point to the slippery boundary between reality and simulated illusions.

Kelsey Merreck Wagner is a textile artist, educator, curator, and anthropologist. She defines her practice as eco-artivistism (art +activism), and she prioritizes projects that synthesize creativity and sustainability with community-engagement. ‘Arachne’ is a site-specific installation made of vibrant woven panels that stretch across tree branches. The artist uses her work to tie together narratives of community, human-environment relationships, and environmental justice. She creates enormous weavings from recycled materials collected from local communities, transforming post-consumer waste and personal objects into a fabric embedded with the histories, values, and choices of the people who contribute to each project. Wagner’s work invites reflection whilst raising a communal environmental consciousness.

Rachel Hayes is a textile and installation artist based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. She uses fabric to create large-scale work, focused on inserting color and form into both built and natural environments. Six textile panels, sewn by the artist, stretch overhead, framing the sky in bold blocks of color. The work is at once intimate and powerfully vivid — a celebratory gesture that shifts with the light, saturated and graphic by day, glowing and translucent after dark. Hayes’ work explores painting processes, quilt making, architectural space, light, and shadow.

Yoko Ono is an artist, musician, and activist whose work has shaped contemporary art and culture for more than seven decades. "Wish Tree" is an interactive installation inviting participants to write their wishes on paper tags and attach them to a tree. First created in 1996, the piece fosters community connection, allowing individuals to share hopes and aspirations. The tree, adorned with tags, becomes a vibrant tapestry of collective dreams, emphasizing the power of shared desires and reflections. When an installation closes, the wishes are collected and continue on in connection with the IMAGINE PEACE TOWER in Reykjavík, Iceland, becoming part of Ono’s ongoing call for peace.
