Congratulations, Milton. ✨

Blackquetry was everything we hoped it would be, and more.

Three evenings, a room full of people who felt it, and work that stopped everyone in their tracks. We are so proud to be part of your journey and so excited for everything still ahead.

Thank you to every single person who came out and made these events what they were. And to the Mizell family and friends: your warmth, your joy, and your unwavering support throughout all of this meant everything. You are the heart behind this exhibition.

We can’t wait to see you all again soon.

If you missed the events, the exhibition is still on view. Come see it in person. Blackquetry remains on display at CLAUG Creative Studio through September 30th.

Look closer. That’s not paint, that’s wood.

Every shadow on his face, every petal on that jacket, every shift in tone from light to dark is a carefully selected and placed wood veneer.

Milton Mizell doesn’t paint his subjects. He builds them.

Untitled 2 is one of the works currently on view as part of Blackquetry at CLAUG Creative Studio.

Every detail in this portrait is wood.

The curl of her hair.
The fall of light across her shoulder.
The quiet certainty in her gaze.

Milton Mizell builds his portraits veneer by veneer, tone by tone, and the result is something that stops you in the middle of a room and doesn’t let you leave.

This is Blackquetry.
And this weekend, you can stand in front of it yourself.

The wait is over.

Last week we held a private soft opening for BLACKQUETRY, and the room said everything. Now it’s your turn.

Milton Mizell’s solo exhibition opens to the public this weekend — two nights, limited space, RSVP required.

His wood marquetry portraits are unlike anything you’ve seen: layered, precise, and so alive you’ll forget you’re looking at wood.

Don’t miss your chance to be in the room.

🗓 Saturday, August 22 · 6–10 PM

Something is being built inside CLAUG right now, and it’s worth the wait.

We are currently closed as we install BLACKQUETRY, the solo exhibition by Miami wood artist Milton Mizell, whose intricate marquetry work transforms wood into something between architecture and painting.

Join us for the opening events on August 22nd and 23rd.

The doors are closing… but only for a little while.

CLAUG Studio will be closed for the next 15 days as we transform the gallery for the Milton Mizell Solo Exhibition.

Fresh walls. New energy. A new experience.

We’ll be sharing the journey along the way.

See you soon.

Stay tuned.

Ten thousand painted sticks.
One surface.
One question that won’t leave you alone: how deep does it go?

Verde by Francisca Garriga is what happens when patience becomes a visual force. Each of the 10,000 sticks placed by hand on wood, arranged in concentric precision until the surface stops being a surface and becomes something else entirely — a tunnel, a frequency, a place the eye wants to fall into.

At 61 × 61 × 6 cm, it occupies a modest amount of wall. It takes up considerably more space in a room.

Carlos Andrade’s practice has always circled the same questions: identity, memory, connection, and what we carry with us when we move from one place to another.

I Am is one of his most direct statements yet.

A field of flowers, bold and layered, built up in mixed media with the kind of confidence that only comes from knowing exactly who you are. The title isn’t a question. It isn’t an introduction. It’s a declaration.
