Please welcome Tristan McQueen to the Ephemera Arts Program!

Tristan is a collage artist based out of COS working with delicate and nuanced cut-outs.

This work immediately makes me think of the cubist artist, Braque.

Georges Braque was one of the earliest fine collage artists that married oak grain print paper to charcoal drawings. He was an outsider in the Fine Arts world- seeing simple materials as entire storylines.

So much of that energy is embedded in Tristan's art. These collage works feel atypical-like a sign of the ever changing times. Beautiful, quiet, dark and sensitive.

Visit this work Tues-Sun during service hours or by private appointment (shoot us a DM)

Themed Happy Hour Cocktails/Wines

A relic from heaven or a doorway to hell? A rose that grows in the dark has convinced a man to stay in a house that is trying to expel him. He must endure the trial, convinced that if he leaves the house, the world will end.

Let's celebrate Arts Month by supporting local filmmakers!

"UNCOMSUMATED III"
By JD Sell

On display at Ephemera Highlands

These unassuming metal works appear as accents to an urban, exposed-brick space.
Yet, each piece, being altered by various chemical processes, unveils hidden imagery the more time you spend with. A ghost image barely peeking through, a character emerging from the rust.

Works by JD Sell can be viewed during service hours or by private appointment.
