A story about hope and rebirth. Folklore’s inaugural group show explores beauty in all phases of nature’s cycles. We honor the earth in her dormancy, the seeds we plant quietly, and the wild, divine process of unfurling.

February 10 through April 8, 2024

A story about pattern seeking. Featuring new work by weaver, Emelie Richardson. This show is an exploration of the instinctual and habitual nature of repetition and pattern. In these handwoven paintings, repetitive movements slowly translate into replicating line then form. Patterns repeat but are never identically reproduced, mimicking nature’s cyclical yet unpredictable behaviors. Through repetition there is a letting go, a getting lost, a meandering off path. Contours begin to blur; soft fascination prevails.

June 1 through July 15, 2024

November 22, 2024 through January 6, 2025

A story about slowing down. In a world that moves so fast, certain times of the year call for a different pace, an inward orientation, and leaning into rest. This winter showcase features work by Jessyjo Darling, Emelie Richardson, Lindsey Calla, and Alysha Colangeli. In their specific mediums, each of these women connects to the groundedness of the earth, honoring the sacredness of the land here in New Mexico, that is so palpably felt during this quiet season.

January 9 through March 3, 2025

A story about intuitive pathways. Featuring new work by Emelie Richardson. In these woven paintings, the formalism inherent to weaving is juxtaposed with intuitive mark-making. The underlying order of the warp and weft create a fundamental structure; a grid. Freeform patterns are painted in layers, loosely referencing the tidy framework and repetition of plainweave while simultaneously placing value on instinctual play, unpredictability, and inconsistency. The painted forms are organized but not orderly, intentionally embracing chance and lack of control, each layer a new perspective. Dimensionality emerges as the painted warp morphs, blurs, and dissolves into the weaving.

June 28 – August 11, 2025

A group textile show featuring Ethan Caflisch, Jess Feury, Annie Millican, Jim Olarte, Kayla Powers, Emelie Richardson, and Dora Somosi.

A story about being in conversation. Stitched, woven, tied, folded - bridging past and present. Elements uncovered, remade with something new to say. The things that hold fast invite us to slow down. What surfaces when we ground? A collection of memories and imaginings settle into place. Figments find their way together, into natural harmony.

October 11 – November 17, 2025

A small group show featuring contemporary textile artists based in Santa Fe, New Mexico: Alysha Colangeli, Rhiannon Griego, and Emelie Richardson.

A collection inspired by the high desert landscape and wild femininity; celebrating the centuries-old weaving tradition in Northern New Mexico.

July 1 to August 13, 2023 at Folklore Studio

A spotlight on two of Folklore's favorite New Mexico based artists: Chimayo-based contemporary weaver, Emelie Richardson and Taos-based abstract painter, Boramie Sao.

August 3 to September 7, 2024 at Folklore Studio

A story about meeting points. When elements collide, mirror, and interplay. What was singular takes a new form in company. And somehow again, becomes singular. Ropes intertwine, canvas is quilted, threads overlap, and new shapes emerge. Now we see differently. The wave becomes ocean. Was it ever a wave? We experience oneness. Until it all unravels. 

Featuring new work by Ethan Caflisch, Alysha Colangeli, Jess Feury, Annie Millican, Jim Olarte and Emelie Richardson.
