Financial Services

For this client’s corporate space, we curated and commissioned a distinctive collection of artwork that enhances shared spaces and fosters a welcoming, sophisticated environment. With a focus on connection and engagement, the collection brings together artists working across diverse mediums to create a cohesive visual experience that enriches daily interactions for employees and visitors alike.

Each artwork was thoughtfully selected to introduce warmth, authenticity, and a sense of place. By incorporating natural materials, rich textures, and innovative techniques, the collection balances contemporary refinement with an inviting, tactile presence. The result is an art program that seamlessly integrates into the architecture, reinforcing the client’s commitment to creativity, quality, and community.

Reception

Low Relief Sculpture

Derrick Velasquez’s Untitled series is created of meticulously hand-cut strips of marine vinyl layered onto wooden forms. Inspired by his background in bookbinding, Derrick transforms vinyl into sculptural wall pieces that reveal the inner structure of the fabric. The accumulation of strips creates subtle color harmonies and a shifting visual structure, where the vinyl rounds and curves, moving beyond the rigid shape of the base form.

ELIZABETH ATTERBURY, Portrait (Reflected), Portrait (Extracted), Portrait (Refracted), 2024, mortar, plywood, glue. Site-specific commission in collaboration with Mrs. Gallery.

Conference Rooms

Low Relief Sculpture + Textile

Constructed from cut plywood and individually raked with tile mortar, Elizabeth Atterbury’s wall works are reconstructed and puzzled together, rejoining the carved glyphs as one complete narrative wall works. Her practice explores legibility, opacity, improvisation, and object-making to reflect on her Chinese American heritage.

Corridor

Work on Canvas

Gwen Hardie sees the canvas as an object, painting into its shape and transforming the flat square into a three-dimensional illusion. Balancing one color against another as if under magnification, she blends seamless gradients of tone and saturation between them, to present a radiant foreground that hovers and glows.

ERIN E. CASTELLAN, Let’s All Live Where the Grass is Greener and the Wind Blows Softly, Dark Was the Day, When Light and Heart Were Woven Together and Water Was Everywhere, 2022-2024, hand-embroidery, beads, acrylic paint on jacquard woven fabric. Acquired through Tracey Morgan Gallery.

Erin E. Castellan crafts vibrant collages using hand embroidery, beads, knitting, crochet, and found and painted fabrics. Embracing textile materials as her “paint,” she explores their expressive and tactile qualities, creating richly textured works.

ANDREW HAYES, Valley and Sky, 2024, fabricated steel and paint. Site-specific commission.

Niche

Low-Relief Sculpture

Andrew Hayes’ sculptures transform the permanence and strength of steel into graceful, refined forms. Influenced by his early experiences with his father, a welder, Hayes manipulates the material’s surface and form. He creates a sense of softness and quietness within the steel’s inherent rigidity.

MYLES BENNETT, Cut Waves 4, Shifting Dawn, Deconstructed Prism, 2024, ink, acrylic, graphite, and colored pencil on canvas. Acquired through Dimmitt Contemporary Art.

Corridors

2D

Myles Bennett uses techniques like intricate pencil work, inking into fibers, and removing canvas threads to create a spatial depth that transcends the two-dimensional plane. His pieces merge mediums and blur the lines between painting, drawing textile, and sculpture.

Katie McQuillen uses printmaking techniques to pass thin layers of acrylic paint through a silkscreen. The process creates a glow-like effect with patterns that appear and vanish. The results are a visual experience that draws the viewer in, sparking a curiosity to explore the depth of the painting.
