Art in the Atrium Opening Reception: “Soft Structures for Holding Ourselves” by Tasanee Durrett
WHAT:
Orange County Arts & Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the Black History Committee of Orange County, Inc., presents Art in the Atrium, featuring “Soft Structures for Holding Ourselves” by Tasanee Durrett.
An opening reception will be held on Friday, February 13, 2026, in the Atrium Gallery at the Orange County Administration Center. “Soft Structures for Holding Ourselves” will be on display through February 26, 2026. The Administration Center is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., excluding holidays.
According to Durrett, “My practice of working across mixed-media painting and sculpture allows me to explore identity, lineage, and psychological healing within the Black diaspora. Using layered compositions that merge Black figures with flora, abstract forms, and architectural linework, I develop a visual language of mind, body, and spirit.”
