South Barbershop

Don't give Mom any ammo. Get cleaned up today!

Hi. It's me again. Come play with us!

May artist: YOU HAVE TO SEE THESE IN PERSON!!!Monica (.canyon.art) is a photographer and mixed media artist based in Fort Worth, TX. After graduating with her BFA in photography from the University of Texas at Arlington in 2011, she found her love of imperfect film exposures accurately captured her whimsical and romantic relationship with the natural world. Adding in her own perspectives via threading, her work reverberates the sacred energies found within these moments whether it be walking through a Texas wildflower field in late May, a sunrise over Yosemite valley, red hot afternoons in the slot canyons of Moab, August days on Zuma beach, sunset surrounded by desert flora in the Chisos mountains or a morning on the snow-capped tundra of the Rockies. Her work explores the seen and unseen magic of the places we go to experience solitude, spirituality, a sense of self and awe.

The intentionality of film, the softness of fiber and the slowness of stitching all serve as quiet acts of devotion, allowing for meditative reflection and connection to something bigger. These textile photographic prints invite viewers to examine their own relationship to Mother Earth and her inhabitants, realizing the deep gift of coexisting with places that make us feel small in the best of ways. It's a call to keep admiring and protecting sacred habitats and ecosystems that we and countless other living things need to survive existentially.

Monica's will be on display all month and be sure to swing through on May 21 for ❤️

I always find it hard to write captions for this silly social media thing that somehow dictates business now. All I can say is thank you for showing up. Thanks for having fun and cleaning up after yourselves. Thank you .tx, , pain pills, and for blowing the roof off the building. AND .io for the killer audio production. Thanks and for being badass neighbors and partners in this night. And for being the coolest building owner. Thanks and and for putting this together. THANK YOU and Eddie for running things and the photos. Thank you thank you thank you. Let's do it again in November!

The first work week of SB2 is done, and I've finally had a chance to reflect on the massive change South Barbershop just made.

SB1 was a sacred, secret space and I'm excited to see what does with it. I'm so glad so many of you shared this special micro shop with us over the last 6.9 years.

I'm grateful for a community that wouldn't let me drop, supportive family and friends, delicious food within walking distance, lovely clients, and a teammate that plugged along with me the whole way. is the sh*t fyi.

Let's share this little joyful space with a larger crowd. Come on in. All are welcome.
