Bakehouse is proud to share recent news from resident artist Joel Gaitan, whose work is currently on view at Galerie Lefebvre et Fils in Paris, France, as part of a solo exhibition titled Solo Quedan Los Recuerdos. The exhibition explores life, death, and the afterlife while engaging themes of identity, sexuality, and ancestral lineage.

Bakehouse is thrilled to announce that, thanks to the generosity of Mathew Whitman Lazenby and facilitated by Nik Massey, Whitman Family Development has made a significant donation enabling the purchase of a new, large professional-grade kiln for our growing community of ceramic artists.

This summer, Bakehouse artist Juan Matos spent two months in residence at the Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris, immersing himself in a vibrant international creative community. The experience offered him a rare stretch of time to focus entirely on his own ideas and production— an opportunity to explore collaboration, world-building, and the role of storytelling across mediums.

From late-night conversations with artists from across the globe to long studio days developing a new film project, Juan shares how the residency shifted his perspective and unlocked a new rhythm of making.

Meet Bakehouse resident Zoe Schweiger, a painter whose work channels a sense of urgency through fluid, blurred forms that echo her queer experience and the environmental precarity of our time. Her paintings delve into intimate moments between loved ones, rendered in a warm, saturated palette that evokes Miami’s heavy humidity, persistent flooding, and sweltering heat.
