In an ongoing effort to support local and emerging artists, Subbasement Artist Studios (SBAS) is proud to present Chrysalis, an art exhibition that focuses entirely on the work of emerging artists. Ten artists from Maryland and Virginia were selected from the first call for entries in the gallery’s history. In addition to exhibiting their artwork at SBAS, they had the opportunity to receive consulting from Director Jeffrey Kent and Coordinator Jennifer Tam about their artwork and entering the art industry.

Chrysalis offers a glimpse into the minds of some of the most promising young artists today. Unencumbered by an established trajectory or a singular method of working, these artists offer some of the freshest perspectives on the direction of contemporary art.

Artists in this exhibition are Amanda Beck Mauck, Jackie Cadiente, Christi Harris, Yumi Hogan, Minku Kim, Jessica Marx, Nick Clifford Simko, Marcella Volini, Austin Voll, and Theo Willis.

Subbasement Artist Studios is an alternative art space located in downtown Baltimore. We have been dedicated to supporting local Baltimore artists and emerging talent since 2003.
