Hey it’s Ma and Pop!
Did you know The Compound Gallery and studios is founded and run by a Ma and Pop?
No board of directors, no backing institutions, just a couple of hard working art loving maniacs. So like any sustainably human run organization, we are taking a summer break and going on our 29 year anniversary trip. 😅

The Gallery will have limited hours and will be open Sundays 12-6pm until our next opening reception on July 11th with Asaki Oda 6-9 pm! In the meantime, stop by and see some of your favorite Compound artists up on the gallery walls, the shop is stocked with great creations. Real Art On Real Walls.
Support your local brick and mortar.

New studio membership is currently closed. See our website to sign up for a tour starting mid July.

In this photographic series, I “transform” vacant commercial spaces into social services and institutions, encompassing both existing services and imagined ones. I physically hold up signage on-site, creating a clumsy illusion that | capture with the camera. The presence of my hand and the transparent supports ensure that this illusion is fleeting, prompting viewers to contemplate the implications of repurposing a small percentage of vacant commercial space to house our absent social safety net.
