Thank you to everyone who has made 2025 an incredible year for us. We hope 2026 is full of fun, health, love and good times for everyone. And, maybe, if we all really try, peace on Earth.
We love you! Come see us! Keep it fun and sexy and never right!
Please pick up a print copy of the December issue of DWELL magazine: We are featured for curation and design along some other really great creative projects in the US. Thank you Dwell Magazine for the attention. @alexmarksphoto for the photography And @dirtytrent for the sweet writing.
Marfa has a lot of great curated shops and artists’ studios. If you have not visited, we encourage you to do so and explore everything this town and region has to offer.
Please join us this Friday, December 5 5-7 for the opening of MOIRÉ WORK, a new body of sculpture by Cody Barber.
Barber transforms extruded metal into vivid optical instruments. Each piece layers perforated mesh to generate a moiré effect—patterns that shift, vibrate, and fold as viewers move through the space. Powder-coated in hues that echo the brightness of pixels and the ripeness of fruit, the sculptures create a surprising tension between the edible and the digital.
Circular apertures serve as lenses, inviting viewers to look through metal that would ordinarily block sight. This transparency produces an intimate, charged encounter. As the eye moves, the works stir into motion, revealing depth and energy inside their precise constructions.
Moiré Work offers an experience shaped by clarity, presence, and perceptual awakening. The exhibition showcases Barber’s ability to build stillness that behaves like motion and material that becomes a threshold for seeing.
The First Annual Marfa Ornament Sale raised $8000!!! for the Marfa Food Pantry! This doubled our initial goal.
