Parking: Street Parking
Accessing the studio: Enter the buidling through the Indie Ink door. Once inside, go up the stairs and head right about 50 ft. There will be a set of orange doors-walk through. The studio will be through those doors, first room on the right.
Meet the Artists
Kaitlyn Tucek’s work investigates the relationship between observation and time—how time is experienced as unreliable, layered, and shaped by the observer. Across her practice, she asks: Can we create works or spaces that engage multiple or non-linear timelines at once? Can the chaos of time be visualized?
Matt Tripodi is a self-taught artist whose work resonates with a nostalgic energy of the 80s and 90s. His diverse interests inform his visual content and infuse his art with a humor, joy, and absurdity. Through painting and sculpture, Tripodi explores playful themes, often incorporating food, neon lights, diagrams, and childlike mark-making. While his style is light-hearted and whimsical, there is a depth to his work that reflects his musings on life, human experience, and artistic rebellion.
Join us for an opportunity to meet the artists, hear about their creative journeys, and connect with fellow Culture Club members over art and conversation!
