Maysey Craddock is excited to join SCOPE Miami Beach this year, presenting an engaging collection of works that celebrate the power of materiality. Featuring five distinctive artists, the exhibition highlights an array of techniques and perspectives, from vibrant color schemes to repurposed materials and intricate compositions. Each piece carries layers of meaning—some thoughtprovoking, others quietly humorous— encouraging viewers to reconsider the ways we interact with and interpret the world around us.
Greely Myatt

The core of artistic vision is a fascination with materials and how they can be transformed. Myatt invites viewers into an accessible yet enigmatic realm, seamlessly weaving abstract elements such as light, air, and negative space into his innovative creations. This transformative process turns materials into subjects, concepts, forms, methods, and media. His eclectic Star arrangements transform the space they occupy into a magical, star-studded world, immersing viewers in the narratives of each material and the universe envisioned by Myatt.
Jared Small
Jared Small’s
work draws viewers into a world suspended between memory and decay. Small is renowned for his masterful, photo realistic depictions of architectural facades and landscapes that evoke the faded grandeur of forgotten spaces. His precise technique lends a dreamlike quality to these structures, making them appear both timeless and transient. Rooted in his native Memphis, Tennessee, Small’s subjects are often abandoned houses and storefronts, worn by time yet imbued with the memories of former lives and communities.
John Salvest
John Salvest’s
work employs literary humor and a keen eye, offering subtly provocative and often ironic insights into the human condition. With fully formed idea and construction plans made he uses found materials - business cards, postage stamps, cigarette butts, fingernail clippings, diet pills, crutches, shipping containers - to create intimate and monumental works that prompt viewers to examine the connotations between text and everyday objects. These pieces, comprised only of sliced art world business cards pronounce the industry all in vain.

practice revolves around visualizing mental health conditions through color and language. Her embroidery works, often taken from samples of her or her family members’ handwriting, provide tactile and intriguing insights into mental health struggles. The pieces offer a way to honor their experiences and foster dialogue around a topic that is often stigmatized.

process begins with photographing the transient moments in nature, particularly Gulf Shore coastlines undergoing ruin and reinvention.
Conceptually concerned with humankind’s impact on the environment, Craddock's formal interest lies in abstraction, breaking down imagery into integral lines and colors, with particular attention to empty spaces. Using found paper painted with gouache and stitched together, her pieces evoke a sense of impact and transport viewers to the shoreline, refreshing cyclical patterns of nature and our interaction with it.
