Cecilia Z. Miguez: A Thousand Years in One Night presents sculptures salvaged and reimagined after the Eaton Fire destroyed the artist’s home and studio. Bearing the marks of fire—scorched metal, missing limbs, and blistered patinas—these figures have been reworked with gold leaf and glass beads, transforming loss into resilience. Miguez treats the fire as an uninvited collaborator, allowing her sculptures to emerge from destruction with renewed vitality and haunting presence.
