While our Inside the Artist’s Studio exhibition may be over, you can still take a little of it home with you by purchasing one of our catalogues! Thanks to a generous grant from the Elizabeth Firestone Graham Foundation, Second Street Gallery was able to produce a catalogue for Inside the Artist’s Studio. Designed by local artist and graphic designer, Mary Michaela Murray, the catalogue includes an essay by curator, Kristen Chiacchia, a selection of images from the exhibition, and some never before seen photographs from the painters’ studios. You can purchase a catalogue online at our square store or in person at the gallery.

Artist Spotlight: Stacey Evans In our Artist Spotlight series, we have been bringing you a closer look at the artists in our Inside the Artist’s Studio exhibition! In our final installment, we’ve talked with Stacey Evans all about her creative process, her experience with preparing for the exhibition, and of course, her studio. How would you describe your creative process? I move quickly between space using the camera to collect data from the passing environment. My work is about the constructed landscape. Whether I am shooting through a window or standing in the studio, I am interested in how humans shape their space to fulfill their desires. Not knowing that exact desire, ambiguity plays a significant role in my process. How do pieces change from the studio to the gallery? It’s like preparing to go out; they clean up then are presented in a lovely space with good lighting. What is your most important tool/something you could not live without in your studio? Paper & pencil. Photograph by Stacey Evans
