“Visions represents an extremely transitional phase of my life; I was nomadic, solo traveling and always in the mountains or on a beach somewhere, I put intentions into being with nature and preparing for whatever was to come next, I knew my ambitions would probably lead my to a city of some sort. The body of work consists of charcoal, pastel, ink, and søme experimental works from late 2022 to late 2023, charcoal especially has become an important material to me because of the amount of intention I feel like I can put behind the fact that it's 100% carbon.. There's a minimalist, dream-like aspect within each piece and that reflects my current philosophy and life experiences, each piece represents a journal entry.” -  Molly McCutcheon

“What was it like partnering with The Tipsy Grape for your debut exhibition?”

“For my first traditional opportunity with my work, it has been a match made in heaven. I come from a sports background so having a sense of teamwork in my life is really important and the team chemistry with Tipsy Grape is amazing. I connected with the owners through a friend and immediately noticed they didn't have any art on their walls, but the building had a wonderful ambience that matched the energy of my art. I started to see the visions of how I could add my own visual philosophy to the walls, I even repainted some of the walls to make sure nothing took away from the art and wine experiences. I got back to New York early January, and it has been nothing but hard work since but it has already paid off; we've sold out two events in a matter of one month. I feel like I'm in a flow state of life and I'm grateful and excited to see what the future brings!”
