✨ TINY ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: ERIKA ZEKOS | NOW IS THE TIME What happens when art invites us to become part of the experience rather than simply observe it? 👀 Meet Now Is The Time by Erika Zekos, a public installation artist, architect, designer, and educator whose multidisciplinary practice explores the intersections of architecture, landscape, and the built and natural environments. Erika creates site-specific installations that respond to the character and history of a place, often using humble, accessible materials and inviting community participation. Her work challenges the traditional relationship between artist, artwork, and audience—transforming viewers into active participants who help shape the meaning of the work through interaction, exploration, and shared experience. With Now Is The Time, Erika brings that participatory spirit to Fun Sized. Her practice reminds us that public art isn’t just something we encounter in a space; it’s something we can engage with, contribute to, and experience together. It’s an invitation to be present, to participate, and to consider the possibilities that exist all around us. Have you discovered Now Is The Time yet? The Fun Sized hunt concludes October 31! 🔎 Grab a map, follow the clues, and see what you discover.

✨ TINY ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: FELIPE ORTIZ | TINY EXPLOSIVE NATURE What can color, memory, and a sense of belonging reveal about the worlds we carry within us? 👀 Meet Tiny Explosive Nature by Felipe Ortiz, a multidisciplinary artist whose work explores memory, migration, identity, and the emotional landscapes of everyday life. Working across painting, drawing, installation, and public art, Ortiz creates richly layered compositions that bring together abstraction, symbolism, and storytelling. Drawing from personal history and cultural experience, his work connects intimate narratives to larger questions of community, transformation, and what it means to belong. With Tiny Explosive Nature, Ortiz joins the Fun Sized adventure, where small-scale artworks create opportunities to encounter new perspectives in familiar places. His practice reminds us that even the tiniest spaces can hold expansive stories—and that a closer look can reveal connections we might otherwise miss. Have you discovered this tiny artwork yet?

✨ TINY ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: M RUDDER | THAT WHICH REMAINS UNBROKEN What connects us—to the natural world, to one another, and to the many selves we carry within us? 🌿 Meet That Which Remains Unbroken by M Rudder, an artist whose practice explores identity, the sacred, belonging, and our interconnectedness with the natural world. As M writes in their artist statement, their work seeks to “explore and affirm the multitudes we contain.” Their practice reaches beyond artmaking, bringing together creative community-building, spiritual reflection, and a commitment to reclaiming connection and belonging. Through this expansive lens, their work invites us to consider what holds us together, what sustains us, and what endures even through change. With That Which Remains Unbroken, M brings these questions into the public spaces of Northampton, inviting us to pause and reflect on the invisible threads connecting us to each other and the world around us.

✨ TINY ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: CICELY CAREW | WANDERING DELIGHT What if joy could change the way we experience the world? 👀 Meet Wandering Delight by Cicely Carew, a multidisciplinary artist whose vibrant, immersive practice explores joy, embodied experience, memory, and transformation. For Carew, joy is more than a feeling—it can be a force for liberation, opening up new ways of seeing, connecting, and being in the world. Through color, movement, and intuitive material exploration, her work invites us to embrace the unexpected and remain open to the possibilities that emerge when we let ourselves wander. With Wandering Delight, that spirit feels right at home in Fun Sized. What happens when we slow down, follow our curiosity, and allow ourselves to experience a familiar place differently? Sometimes the smallest encounters can shift our perspective—and remind us that delight is something worth seeking. Have you discovered Wandering Delight yet?
