Exhibition opening SUNDAY, JULY 26, 11am - 4pm! “Beyond the Veil” marks the first exhibition at Mindy Solomon Gallery of Miami-based artists @pangeakalivirga , @spiridonakou , and @lisuvega , curated by Sophia Ballesteros. Bringing together three distinct textile practices, the exhibition considers cloth as both object and conduit, capable of carrying memories that extend beyond a single body or lifetime. Through processes of felting, weaving, stitching, and assemblage, each artist engages fiber not only as material, but also as a structure to record inheritance and reflection. Join us during @progressiveartbrunch for the opening reception! All artists will be present @thedripcaphe will also be there! ☕️@mindysolomongallery 848 NW 22 St, Miami, FL 33127➡️ SWIPE TO SEE THE EXCITING PROGRAMMING WE HAVE PLANNED FOR SUMMER 2026!➡️ as well as the list of @progressiveartbrunch participating galleries!🪽🪽🪽 by @spiridonakou

Debuting in “Blurred Lines”, opening this Saturday, “Let Me Sow Love” exemplifies Andrea Spiridonakos’s analog resistance to the digital. The live-edge Cuban mahogany waterfall bench—enveloped in bespoke felted wool, alpaca thread, and glass beading—operates between the domestic and the wild. In this work, asymmetry, irregularity, and a sense of perpetual motion destabilize functional expectations. This piece offers a subtle surreal encounter that foregrounds touch, presence, and material tension.Andrea Spiridonakos (b. Winsted, CT) is a multidisciplinary artist working across fiber art, sculpture, and experimental design. Informed by a prior career as a professional ballerina and a fashion design education from NYC’s FIT. Her work has been exhibited internationally at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris in collaboration with Métiers d’Arts CHANEL, and nationally at institutions including the Newport Art Museum, Coral Gables Museum, and the Miami Design District. Her pieces are held in the permanent collection of the deYoung Museum and in private collections across the U.S. Spiridonakos is currently a resident at the @bakehouseartcomplex by @spiridonakou
