The artworks in this exhibition are made with care and intuition. Each artist is deliberate in their culling of feeling and material as they build structure and rhythm within their work. The exhibition’s title speaks to the restless nature of making in relation to active minds and environments.

WHILE THE CITY SLEEPS  will be on view by appointment August 23 - 30, 2025.

at 2413 Hyperion - a community space for art and music.
