Make sure to stop by Khae Haskell's beautiful installation 'Effloresce' at our NYC fair, last day today!
Effloresce takes inspiration from the unwanted and overlooked details in nature – rotting plants, the texture of tree bark and what grows from between the cracks in the sidewalk – details Khae finds on their many walks across New York City.
Come and see it today – we’re here until 5pm ⚡

Introducing the final artist highlight for our Women’s History Month campaign!
Erika Stearly makes paintings of the spaces where people live. Inspired by vintage home remodelling, magazines and friend's houses, her paintings tell a story of everyday life.
Despite being loosely rendered, exaggerated and often brightly colored, the collection of domestic items depicted still manage to evoke the sense of a particular place.
Stearly's paintings are often titled by street address or named after the people who live there. The fluidity between abstraction and representation creates a unique feeling of nostalgia.
Supporting female artists at our fair is hugely important to the Affordable Art Fair ethos. Make sure to head to JJ Galloway Studio’s stand to fall in love with Erika’s work.
See you there!
Artwork: Erika Stearly, ‘3044 Pine Street No. 202’, 2023, watercolor and acrylic, 11 x 14in, $730, JJ Galloway Studios
