This is Stephen Lichty’s (@stephenlichty ) studio in San Francisco. At the entrance, quartz boulders sit on tables after being excavated, splashed by the sunlight and massaged by water. In one corner, window panes lean against the wall, getting readied for pine rosin to be melted over them, filling the room with the subtlest fresh scent. And in other corners of the room, the tools of the artist’s trade, neatly organized, paralleling the scientific foundation of his work. It started with a single boulder — one Lichty came across while doing stone masonry work in the Bay Area. He followed it to its origin: an old mine in the Sierra Nevada foothills, on land that was gutted by Gold Rush-era hydraulic mining before becoming protected National Forest. The same destructive forces that tore through that hillside are what pushed these stones to the surface in the first place. That tension between damage and discovery sits at the heart of his first show with YveYANG (@yveyanggallery ). Stephen Lichty: Ghost Stone May 8–Jul 3, 2026 YveYANG New York 🇺🇸
