SUMMARY:Artists' Talk & Opening Reception: Traces of the Infinite featuring Helena Palazzi\, Soli Pierce & Lara Saget
DESCRIPTION:The Gallery at Yellow Studio presents “Traces of the Infinite\,” a small group exhibition featuring the work of Helena Palazzi\, Soli Pierce\, and Lara Saget\, on view September 12 through October 18\, 2026. The exhibition brings together three practices that share an interest in a rawness of material and form\, and a refusal to treat separation as final. Join us on Saturday\, September 12 for an artists’ talk at 3pm and an opening reception from 4 to 6pm. \nPierce and Saget both build their work from the materials of the natural world\, stone\, wood\, glass\, and metal\, treating found and raw matter as a starting point rather than a finished thing. Palazzi’s paintings meet that work with a muted palette and layered surface that hold the same quiet register. Together\, the artists share an interest in what lies beneath the visible surface of a work\, and in the moments when the boundaries we take for granted begin to give way. \nAbout the Artists \nHelena Palazzi is a multidisciplinary visual artist based in Kingston\, New York. Born in Sweden\, she moved to Italy in 1993 to study at the Academy of Fine Arts Pietro Vannucci in Perugia\, Umbria\, where she was introduced to the ideas of Arte Povera and began exhibiting work in photography\, painting\, and mixed media. In 1998\, Palazzi relocated to New York City\, where she built an international career spanning more than two decades in fashion and commercial photography\, working with leading brands\, designers\, magazines\, and creative agencies. After moving to the Hudson Valley in 2019\, she gradually returned to painting\, reestablishing a studio practice that now forms the center of her work. Today\, she creates contemporary abstract paintings and works on paper from her studio in Kingston\, New York. \nSoli Pierce is an interdisciplinary artist whose work spans sculpture\, encaustic painting\, photography\, installation\, and sound. Her practice explores how light\, material\, and atmosphere shape perception\, memory\, and inward reflection. She is known for her immersive sculptural environments and encaustic paintings that incorporate organic matter and recurring circular motifs. Her work has been the subject of recent solo exhibitions at KinoSaito Arts Center\, ArtsWestchester Gallery\, Hammond Museum\, and BAU Gallery\, with a 2025 artist-in-residence at KinoSaito and Jentel\, and a 2026 artist-in-residence at Tongue River. Pierce has received grants from ArtsWestchester and NYSCA\, and her work has appeared in The New York Times\, The Village Voice\, and Ars Electronica. \nLara Saget is a Brooklyn-based sculptor and artist whose practice explores spirituality through a scientific lens and imagines new possibilities of natural material design. Over the past decade\, she has envisioned large-scale sculptures in bronze\, glass\, and marble: exploring opposing elements\, creating synergies through these material encounters. Her sculptures and installations have been exhibited with Trotter&Sholer Gallery (New York\, NY)\, Halsey McKay Gallery (East Hampton\, NY)\, Bellevue Arts Museum (Bellevue\, WA)\, and Houston Center for Contemporary Craft (Houston\, TX). Saget was awarded the 2022 Tg: Transitions in Kiln-Glass Emerging Artist Honor\, along with the 2017 NYU MFA Artistic Practice Award. She received her BA from Barnard College and her MFA from New York University.

SUMMARY:Book Club: Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt by Ben Reeves
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Book Club at Bedford Books on Thursday September 17 at 6:30pm. We will be discussing Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt by Ben Reeves. \nThere will be lively discussion\, questions posed and answered and time to connect with fellow YS Members. \nThis is a zero pressure book club – didn’t quite finish the book? Come anyway. \nHosted by Fran Hauser & Emily Winograd Leonard. \nLight refreshments will be available. \n  \nMember RSVP required. \n  \nThis book is available for purchase at Bedford Books! You can also purchase the book on the Bedford Books website here and have it shipped to you. \n  \n  \nAbout the Book \nTravis is Death in the modern world. He lives with his cat in a small\, gray town. His job is to offer people comfort in their final hours of life\, which he does without complaint or judgement. He’s stoic\, gentle\, and a little naive\, despite who he is\, but he never tries to change anyone’s fate. He is responsible for maintaining the balance of nature\, and every life must eventually end. \nThen Travis meets Dalia\, a midwife\, and her boisterous eight-year-old daughter Layla\, who live across the hall\, and despite his best attempts to keep his distance\, he finds himself wholeheartedly embraced by other people for the first time. So it is with this seemingly unremarkable family that Travis begins to understand what it means to be truly alive—and what might be irrevocably lost in death. \nWritten with radiant warmth\, wisdom\, and compassion\, Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt is a timeless and ultimately uplifting story about appreciating life\, accepting its end\, and finding our place in the universe—especially when it feels most impossible—that will resonate with anyone who has ever loved and lost or worried about time’s passing. \n  \nAbout the Author \nBen Reeves lives in Peterborough\, UK\, with his wife and two children. An early draft of Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt won the international 2024 Bath Novel Award. When he’s not writing\, he paints\, makes music\, and works as a web designer for a book printing company. \n  \n  \nLocation:\nBedford Books\n13 Court Road\nBedford\, NY 10506

SUMMARY:Mindfulness Club: The Art of Returning to Yourself
DESCRIPTION:September has a way of inviting us forward. A new season begins to stir\, familiar routines return\, calendars start to fill\, and some of us may find ourselves standing at the beginning of an entirely new chapter. Amid all that movement\, there is a quieter invitation too: to return to ourselves. To pause\, feel our feet beneath us\, take a deeper breath\, and remember that we don’t have to meet the energy of a new season by rushing into it. \nThis month\, we’ll explore The Art of Returning to Yourself through gentle mindfulness\, reflection\, grounding breathing practices\, and guided meditation. Like a painting created brushstroke by brushstroke\, a song composed note by note\, or a story written word by word\, a grounded life is shaped through small moments of presence—one breath\, one pause\, one return at a time. We’ll practice simple ways to calm the nervous system and reconnect with ourselves as we move into the months ahead. Because the practice isn’t about never losing our center. The chaos of our world challenges us constantly. It’s about remembering the way back. And perhaps\, with each return\, discovering that home is not a place we need to find—it is something quietly waiting within us. \nMember RSVP below.  \nLocation: Tambra’s tent in North Stamford

SUMMARY:Pressed Botanical Design Workshop with Marguerite Alpert
DESCRIPTION:For all interested artists of nature: this workshop on Wednesday September 30 at 6pm is an opportunity to create a pressed botanical composition using your own previously pressed materials from our earlier workshop. For anyone who did not attend the pressing workshop\, Marguerite will provide a beautiful selection of pressed botanical specimens. Depending on each participant’s pace\, a design may be completed or well underway by the end of the session. \nSpace is limited to 10 participants.  \n  \nAbout Marguerite Alpert \nMy artwork transforms pressed and dried botanical materials into compositions that invite close observation. I deconstruct flowers into their smallest components – individual petals\, sepals\, and fragments and use these elements as building blocks for larger designs. Through this process\, I aim to present familiar natural materials in unexpected ways\, encouraging viewers to see them with fresh eyes.  \nViewers frequently mistake my botanical compositions for watercolor paintings or pen and ink drawings\, only to discover with delightful surprise that they are observing actual plant matter. This moment of revelation consistently draws people closer to examine the work more carefully\, a response that lies at the heart of my artistic intention.  \nMy practice centers on revealing the extraordinary within the ordinary\, highlighting the intricate details in nature that we often overlook. The transformation that occurs during the pressing and drying process is itself a form of artistic alchemy. Fresh flowers and leaves give up their three-dimensional form\, becoming flattened through the application of pressure and time. This metamorphosis reveals hidden structures: the delicate network of veins threading through petals becomes visible\, colors also shift and intensify in unexpected ways\, and textures emerge that were previously obscured by the plant’s fresh form.  \nMy work celebrates both the fragility and resilience of botanical life. My goal is to slow down the viewer’s gaze to foster a deeper appreciation for the complex beauty of nature that surrounds us every day.

Using anonymous pictures sourced from thrift stores and their online counterparts\, Pascual used techniques of enlargement\, fragmentation\, and obfuscation to upend viewers’ expectations. While these alterations can be humorous\, there is also an implied discomfort in the abrupt cropping of limbs\, faces obscured by objects\, or physical destruction of images by shattering\, tearing\, or folding. \nThrough her interventions\, Pascual exaggerated and highlighted the artifice of these found images. Frequently encasing the enlarged images in thick Plexiglas and pairing them with common yet unexpected objects\, Pascual gave them new life and a newly charged aesthetic function. By enlarging them well beyond their intended size\, to a scale commensurate with furniture or sculpture\, she asserted the physicality of the images\, giving them volume and form. \nFeaturing 17 of Pascual’s works made between 2009 and 2014\, this exhibition demonstrates the artist’s methods of recontextualizing her original source material. Through dramatic changes to scale\, adding repurposed objects\, and other transformations\, Pascual created works that urge viewers to see everyday imagery from a new perspective. \n(Note: Museum admission tickets are purchased individually – General Admission: $16 / Senior: $13. The $200 tour fee is included in the retreat costs.) \nImage on graphic: Marlo Pascual\, Untitled\, 2013; Digital C-print\, 50 1/8 x 40 1/8 in.; National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Gift of Heather and Tony Podesta Collection; © Estate of Marlo Pascual; Image courtesy of Casey Kaplan\, New York
