The Cream -- Unveiling
Studio 309
Artists Larassa Kabel and Stephanie Brunia have begun a new studio visit project called The Cream. They have been traveling around the state meeting artists in their work spaces, asking them about their practices, and photographing behind the scene. This has revealed the how's and why's of some of Iowa's most interesting artists. They will be launching their initiative during open studios with some of those artists on hand to answer questions and holding a drawing for a piece of art.
