Pretty Secrets — PS: I<3U
Jan 19
Jan 27 2024
exhibition in-person

Mararamiro and Pretty Secrets invites you to ‘PS: I <3 U’. This is the second in a series of exhibitions, with the inaugural show having been presented by Spring Studios at their Tribeca location in October 2023.

Pretty Secrets is a cheeky invitation to peek into the minds and desires of a dozen emerging artists and designers. This group is composed of makers from Canada, the United States and China. Each designer pulls inspiration from personal cultural diasporic craft techniques with a grounded relationship to the materials they choose to work with, holding a belief that the future of design is in the hands of those who can work by peering backwards while still envisioning the future. Pretty Secrets is a collection of contemporary beautifully crafted objects. Enter their world of beauty and unveil the pretty secrets behind each work.

An opening reception will be held on January 19 from 3-6pm and the show will be on view from January 19-27.

Participants

Angela Cho, Cat Love, Elizabeth Lenny, Grace Wardlaw, Izzy Yang, Jia Xin Huang, Liyang Zhang, Madeleine Young, Sarah Holloway, Shayla Giroux

White porcliene candel holder has a lean to it that makes it look like it is falling. The ceramic holder has three legs that ungulate wider and skinnier creating a rippling pattern.
Izzy Yang's Spring Vessel
A metal chair that is made up of blow-up bubble forms. It is symmetrical, resampling a throne in stature.
