We visited Dr. Evilletown in her basement studio in New York City. The space is quiet and practical, with the faint smell of paint and beeswax in the air. Around her, sketches, paintings, and sculptures sit in different stages of progress.

It’s a chance to see how her art takes shape, one brushstroke and sound at a time.

We chose the theme “Faces” to celebrate visibility, vulnerability, and connection. This exhibition is a call to artists everywhere to bring faces to life not just as images, but as reflections of emotion, identity, and the shared human experience.

She shares how slowing down through painting helps her make sense of a fast moving world and how ideas of identity and connection continue to shape her thinking.
