Mystic Triangle - is a documentary by Christopher Mitchell [ ] exploring Vodou in Haiti through the ceremonial communities of Souvenance, Badjo, and Soukri;  three of Haiti’s most spiritually significant Lakou. Filmed over the course of 15 years, the project brings together intimate footage, layered soundscapes, field recordings, music, and personal interviews with Vodou practitioners, community members, and elders.

The film explores ritual, spirituality, ancestral memory, music, and the relationship between people, nature, and sacred space. It also reflects on preservation and cultural continuity, documenting traditions that are often misunderstood, misrepresented, or rarely seen in depth.

This project has been supported through the Wavemaker Grant from Locust Projects and The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, as well as support from the Knight Foundation Art + Tech Fund.

We are excited to announce the 2026 Summer Open Cohort! 💫

For twelve weeks, selected artists will be utilizing the Audrey Love Gallery as a communal artist studio and will have free access to shared art-making facilities. The program will also offer opportunities for creative and professional development through studio visits, networking events, and more. The program is designed to support the practices of local artists by providing them with critical infrastructure and an opportunity to foster relationships and engage with the organization’s community of artists.

As opportunities for free studio space are exceedingly rare in Miami, this program helps fulfill a significant need for artists in the area. The initiative expands on the organization’s mission to address the need for affordable workspace for artists in Miami’s urban core.

We’d like to thank this year’s jury, René Morales, Senior Curatorial Fellow at Bakehouse; Iris Colburn, Associate Curator at MFA Chicago; and Amanda Sanfilippo-Long, Director of South Florida Cultural Consortium and Curator of Miami-Dade Art In Public Places; who generously provided their time and expertise in selecting this year’s cohort.

We’re excited to introduce a new series of Artist Highlights, offering a closer look at the practices, ideas, and trajectories of Bakehouse artists through one-on-one interviews.

To kick things off, we’re featuring two artists with compelling solo exhibitions currently on view in Miami— each engaging memory, material, and personal history in distinct and fruitful ways.

🌟Luján Candria
Miami-based Argentine artist Luján Candria ( ) works across a wide range of media to create introspective works that explore memory, reminiscence, and oblivion. Luján often uses the repetition and juxtaposition of images to create intimate and poetic narratives imbued with nostalgia.

Luján has been a resident artist at Bakehouse since 2021. To experience more of her work, visit her studio here at Bakehouse, or see Still More Fragile, her solo exhibition currently on view at Faena Art ( ) through May 3.
 
🌟Sterling Rook

Miami-based artist Sterling Rook ( ) works across sculpture and fiber, using materials such as forged steel, handmade rope, and organic elements to explore ancestry, craft, and material memory. Drawing from a lineage of textile and fiber traditions on both sides of his family, Rook approaches art-making as both a generative and regenerative process, connecting personal and cultural histories across time.

Sterling currently has work on view at Tunnel Projects ( ) as part of his solo exhibition Shupingagua , on view through Saturday, April 25. Don’t miss this last opportunity to experience the exhibition!
