Its such a pleasure to work with the talented artist Karen Sikie! Her intricate paper mosaic, on a uniquely shaped panel, served as the focal point for Marbé Designs’ stunning window display at The Luxury Kitchen in collaboration with Source Art for last year’s Legends. The visual journey captured the lively spirit of the Amazon while paying homage to Marbé’s Spanish and Venezuelan roots; it’s a great example of how our collaborations with designers, artists and fabricators enhance projects.
Sikie’s collage, Artemis, 70 x 30”, poised in-flight, with vibrant colors and beautiful patterns, has been appreciated during her extended stay in The Luxury Kitchen’s window over the past year, but is now anticipating a new home. It will make a striking statement in a lobby, theme related commercial space or any design that craves bold color.

Karen Sikie’s artwork comes to life through her paper mosaic technique, a specialized form of collage. She begins each collage with a detailed drawing, which acts as a map or template for the hand-cut shapes she applies to the surface. Karen uses all types of papers, some hand-painted. Her work is an expression of the beauty, energy, rhythms, and patterns of the natural world.

We were excited to procure a stunning work by for clients of ours. This piece perfectly complements a stunning diptych by Rebecca () as well as the overall design by .
Scrolling, you can see multiple paintings we considered by Bobbie Burgers and photo renderings we created to visualize the work in situ and support the decision-making process.
Bobbie Burgers’ sweeping gestural strokes have come to define her work. In recent years, Burgers has moved away from realistic depictions of florals, pushing her paintings towards abstraction. After working with collage, Burgers began applying thicker layers of paint onto her canvas works, building them up in places to create three-dimensional textural difference. She moves between oil sticks, spray paint, acrylic paint, and pastels, playing with their viscosities by watering them down or leaving them thick.
We are hopeful that Bobbie Burgers’ abstracted brushwork will bring joy to our client for years to come.

Today, we honor the memory of Mel Bochner (1940-2025).
As a trailblazing Conceptual Artist who radically reimagined art-making, Bochner’s pictorial and theoretical influence will challenge and inspire artists now and for generations to come.
We are honored to share our latest acquisition, an incredibly special piece, Blah Blah Blah. Last month, just after his passing, we procured the work while at Frieze, from Marc Selwyn Fine Art. Though diminutive in size, this 2009 monoprint has taken on a poignant, renewed meaning and historical significance. A powerful piece of his immortal legacy.
We are incredibly grateful for galleries such as for how the commitment they make in service of the artists they represent, benefits us all.
We’ve had the pleasure of procuring other pieces in Bochner’s oeuvre as well, from the gorgeous 7 color silk screen, “Oh Well- Red,” (slides 4-6) to the striking oil on velvet, “Head Honcho” (slides 7-8). Both works bring a vibrancy and depth to the designs of the exquisite interiors they inhabit.

We had the pleasure of attending Black in Every Color, Art in Every Form during LA Art Fair week. Such a powerful collection of impactful, intriguing work.
Launched with The Migration at Tola (The Other LA) in New Orleans, Black in Every Color continued in Los Angeles for its third annual edition, featuring The Movement—a gathering of artists whose work embodies cultural stewardship and a collective call to action in the fine art space. The three-day exhibition at The LINE Hotel in Koreatown featured a convergence of installations and performances that celebrate the multifaceted expressions of Black artistry. This year’s exhibition was a benefit, raising funds to amplify and connect the diaspora through the arts. As Black culture continues to shape the world, this initiative creates space for meaningful dialogue, creative expression, and cultural preservation.
Co-curated by Nakeyta Moore of ArtloudLA, this initiative builds direct support for Black artists, expands Black in Every Color’s global reach, and strengthens Tola as a regenerative space for artistic incubation and collaboration. We are endlessly proud of Nakeyta (yes, a recent team member of ) and cannot wait to see more of what she does!
