The 2014 winner of The BOMBAY SAPPHIRE® Artisan Series, Kristine Mays, shares her perspective of the world through her powerful pieces at this year's SCOPE New York.
Mays’ "Pearls of My Experience" looks at the world through the viewpoint of an African- American person in the United States. These works hold a message of optimism and strength, challenging how we view others and ourselves. Within the confines of the hard metal wire is a sense of resilience and perseverance- the need to push forward and thrive. Each work is accompanied by text written to inspire the viewer towards deeper introspection. The BOMBAY SAPPHIRE® Artisan Series is a national search for the next big name in visual arts. It was created to give under represented visual artists from around the country a national platform to expose their work to a broader audience. In 2014, thousands of artists submitted their artworks and exhibited at local galleries during the regional finals. Ultimately, twelve artists were chosen to showcase their work at the grand finale during SCOPE Miami Beach, and just one artist was selected to receive a solo exhibit at SCOPE New York 2015.

FAME is the latest brainchild of Alex Mitow, the entrepreneur behind the NY Times-lauded hot dog joint Los Perros Locos and the LESpace gallery/launchpad on the Lower East Side. Standing for Food, Art, Music, and Events, FAME brings all four aspects together to create perfectly synthesized experiences. During this year's SCOPE New York, FAME will produce a full-service, arts-driven cafe and lounge within the fair. The FAME Café will feature a curated selection of beer and wine along with fresh salads, artisanal pastries, hole-y creations from doughnut darling Underwest, and the signature hot dogs from Los Perros Locos that delighted attendees at last year’s SCOPE. |
