Downy Doxey-Marshall introduces the baker’s dozen large oil paintings in Immerse, her current show in the Phillips’ Dibble Gallery, with a twice-relevant quotation from Pablo Picasso: The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls. The key here is “washing,” a word that […]
In “Charity,” a clichéd old man — straw hat, glasses, cane, bag of bird seed — stands in shallow water at the beach, feeding a large gull that hovers in midair to take seed from his open hand, both seemingly oblivious to the wave: a wall of water […]

It was a surreal experience walking into Dreamscapes at the Gateway to view live performance indoors – Myriad Dance’s new Overslept. Just surpassing two weeks since I had received my second dose of the Pfizer vaccine, I was itching to see live art again. After a brief introduction, […]
North Carolina native Joseph Toney has made Utah his home in part by leaving his mark across the urban landscape with a series of indoor and outdoor murals in Orem, Cottonwood Heights, SLC, Park City and South Salt Lake. Toney may be best known for his sharp, linear […]
The pins on the CV map of Miles Toland’s career are as far flung as Mexico, India, Australia, France and Canada. This weekend he has added a pin in the City of South Salt Lake in Utah. Toland grew up in the artistic incubator of Santa Fe, and […]

With their annual Mural Fest, South Salt Lake is a city on the move, and in case you haven’t noticed, Hayley Barry is spelling it out for you. In large letters. On colorful walls. Barry, who operates as Type Affiliated, has been a sign painter for years. She […]

Encounters with cougars seem to becoming more and more common. Videos of hikers and trail runners in Utah making their way away from aggressive cats, all the while trying to convince them they will not make a good meal, have gone viral online over the past couple of […]
“Sanación a Madre Tierra” (healing of mother earth), Roots Art Kollective’s contribution to South Salt Lake’s Mural Fest 2021, emerged out of the difficult times of 2020. “We all went through some really hard times last year,” says RAK, “so we asked our followers on Instagram to give […]
