a lingering” — Opening Night Recap
After a snowy raincheck, a lingering finally opened its doors at Youthful Vengeance for an evening shaped by quiet moments, reflection, and presence. Featuring paintings by Kristen Stephen and Ellie Hsu, the exhibition invited visitors into a space where emotion, memory, and perception unfold slowly.
Throughout the night, guests moved through works that explored the space between presence and disappearance. Rather than rushing toward resolution, the exhibition encouraged viewers to pause — to sit with a feeling and experience the subtle shifts within each piece.
The opening was made even more special with a performance by Chloe Sofia, whose music added another layer of atmosphere to the evening. Thank you to everyone who came out to share in this moment, and to Kristen Stephen and Ellie Hsu for creating a contemplative space where things truly linger.
