Caroline Amond was selected to show at the SPRING/BREAK fair in New York this fall, her first acceptance from an open call since graduate school.
Around the same time, she got notice that her studio at the Brooklyn Army Terminal is being relocated to another building on the same property.
Amond said she could be without a workspace for three or four months if negotiations over the move fail.

The studio is a white box where she said she has made the best work of her life over the past two years. The last painting she expects to finish there is titled Finale:Guillotine.
“I’ve made probably the best work of my life in this space, and I’m having a hard time dealing with leaving,” Amond told Urgent Matter.
She said the replacement studio will be newer but the current space is hard to give up.
“The silver lining is my new studio will be bigger and newer with a better HVAC system, but I’ve created so many beautiful memories here,” Amond said.
