Printing Press Artist Studios

Erika Molnar

Inspired by the natural world, Erika Baumgartner Molnar transforms fabric into quilts full of movement and light. She approaches the quilting process with the mindset of a painter, coaxing patterns with carefully chosen colors and introducing texture with stitching. Her current focus is on subtle ways creatures interact with light and air and water: making visible the currents trailing a bird wing, an eddy stirred up by a fish. The quilts invite attention to fleeting moments of wonder.

Barracuda Brand

Barracuda Brand was founded in 2015 by designer Shaunessy Bloom and artist Kelly Breez. The two native Floridians and childhood friends got together one night to make a custom-fitted pair of overalls and embarked on a journey to make an overall that is both practical and flattering for every woman. Along with functionality, they wanted something that would stop people on the street; clothing influenced by an intersection of visual art and the vivid Florida landscape. As a female owned and operated rarity in a world of outsourced fast fashion, all Barracuda garments are handmade to order at their production studio in upstate New York, to ensure a sharp focus on quality. These are not your average overalls. Wear your pair bowling, wear them to work, let them escort you to happy hour or on a business trip. They'll have you feeling like you're on a mission no matter where you are headed.
