CURRENT EXHIBITS FEATURING

Chase DeForest, Leah Cupino, and Yuki Coyle

Chase DeForest, Out West

Jessie Wilber Gallery

Chase DeForest creates collaged and stitched leather artworks broadly exploring themes surrounding cattle, horses, landscapes, and the American West. She uses hides as a conceptual jumping off point for her subject matter. The artwork celebrates the history and many compelling properties of leather: supple, durable, flexible and fun. 

Chase was raised riding horses on a rural family farm. After two decades making commissioned custom furniture, she was introduced to the idiosyncratic world of custom cowboy boot makers. In becoming one herself, she discovered the many attributes and potential of leather. She has now also taken the medium from the foot to the wall. 

Chase has an MFA from the Rhode Island School of Design and presently resides in Livingston, Montana.

Leah Cupino, Geo-Erratic Behavior

Weaver Room Gallery

Leah Cupino once lived on top of a volcano and a score of other locations in her life, but now resides in Helena, Montana.

Her 20-year career’s worth of paintings include loose landscapes and topographical glacier abstractions and now includes a focus on the boulders within them.

Her subjects are united by her fascination with grand scales of time, as she colorfully weaves concepts of place, ownership and what it means to simply be a part of this earth.

Cupino is currently the co-founder of Omerta Arts, a studio-residency mentorship program and gallery where she also organizes her city’s Art Walk events when she is not outdoors with her family.

She has enjoyed residencies at Art Gallery Studios in Mexico City, CDMX, the Wolf Pack of New York City, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art and Virginia Commonwealth University, and her degree in Fine Arts and Commercial Design from Walla Walla University, and has enjoyed teaching at the Cittone Institute and CHI of Philadelphia, as well as Carroll College and Helena College, of the University of Montana’s Fine Arts Departments in past years.

Yuki Coyle, Hit the Road

Lobby Gallery

Yuki Coyle is a visual artist currently living in Bozeman, Montana. She enjoys many artistic mediums especially painting, illustration, and ceramics. In her free time, you can find Yuki hiking, traveling, or baking. Yuki is originally from Fargo, North Dakota and she finds much of her inspiration from her home community, and the places she encounters in her travels from there.
