Across the Studio with Von Kolk (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the 23rd episode of Across the Studio, Mia Schoolman sits down with Von Kolk, a painter based in Ridgewood whose current body of work is built entirely out of mistranslation.

Read excerpt
In the 20th episode of Across the Studio, Mia Schoolman sits down with Gabrielle Guthrie, an abstract painter based in Brooklyn who started her art practice in 2023 after a decade-long career in product design and entrepreneurship. She studied at Stanford's Joint Program in Design, started a company, sold it, and then felt an itch in her hands that told her it was time to make physical things again. Her work is described as dreamy, serene, and joyful—layered, textural pieces built across multipl
