An evening of movement in the dark, slow transformation and ethereal feels. As we approached the end of 2021, we set out to create an experience outside of the retail world. Pylon in collaboration with The Ceremony Doula & Apt E introduced EMBRACE, a different kind of dance party for the longest night of the year.

Invited to be a part of a winter pop-up market, we meticulously picked then packed our inventory and headed to the small industrial street of Terry Ave. North in South Lake Union. There, we joined with local artists and filled the room with wares, prints, one of a kind clothing and accessories.

With an extension of stay for the 666 South King Street space and the inkling in ourselves that we still had a lot more to share, we took a few weeks to dream up Inter Medial 2. A holiday retail event combining new collections, art, DJs, take out and eccentric sake into a single location.

We asked Abigail to share some thoughts on the theme of REUNIONS. She one-upped the request by including some recent collages as well.

African American artist Bill Traylor, who was born to an enslaved family in Alabama in 1853 and who died in 1949, has been variously compared to the likes of Giacometti, Klee, and Matisse—despite having neither their privilege nor their training.
