Inspired to look outside of himself during the artworld paradigm shift of 2020, artist Daniel A Bruce sought to foster a new community of artists through Step Mother Nature, a curated platform for the exhibition and sale of artworks. The gallery represents a new model, one that focuses less on real estate and more on engagement. By existing primarily online, Step Mother Nature can bring its artists to a wider audience while also serving as an archive that revolves around a series of carefully selected artist groupings and exhibitions. As the community grows, adding new members and material on a regular basis, the gallery acts as a dynamic venue for the viewing and exploration of a diverse group of artists’ work.
