A Journey Through Imagination and the Subconscious
The City of Santa Clarita is pleased to present its latest art exhibition, Dreamscapes, on display at the Newhall Community Center (22421 Market Street) now through June 24, 2026. This juried exhibition explores the imaginative, surreal and subconscious worlds, inviting viewers into dreamlike environments shaped by memory, emotion and fantasy. From ethereal scenes and abstract visions to symbolic narratives and altered realities, Dreamscapes blurs the line between the real and the imagined while celebrating creativity without boundaries.
Among the featured artists is Taia Akulova, whose work reflects a deeply introspective and psychological approach to painting. “My work moves between abstraction and form, translating inner experience into visual language,” Akulova shares. “The paintings unfold like dreamscapes. Spaces where reality softens, time dissolves and identity becomes fluid,” she explains. Rather than offering escape, Akulova invites viewers into an intimate encounter with inner worlds shaped by intuition, vulnerability and imagination. The featured photo is “Delicate Vibrations” by Taia Akulova.
The exhibiting artists include: Faye Abharian, John H. Adkins, Taia Akulova, Georgette Arison, Elizabeth Chislett, John Cowan, Meghann Flaherty, Tim Song Jones, Allison Lauricella, Julia Markovich, Susan Magine, Katie McGuire, Mark Micchio, Jane Mick, Madeline Peng Miller, Danny Muñoz, Justin Poole, Alex Selkowitz, Jayme Sun Thomas, Zuri Timmons and Stuart Vaughan.
