Introducing the Next Year of feverdream Artists!
feverdream welcomes the next year artists, which consists of 4 promising emerging local artists! Chronologically, the artists are Valentino Quijano, Sarah Tuttle, Justin Michael Will, and Juliette Thimmig!
Until now, we have selected 3 artists at a time in a way that didn’t line up with our yearly resident exhibition. This year, we have chosen 4, so that in the future our selections will now be the 3 curated artists who will share said exhibition each summer. Valentino will join Julissa and Alyssa for a group show while Sarah, Justin, and Juliette are a pairing we all know ahead of time.

Sarah Tuttle
Fall 2026
Sarah Tuttle is an artist from Cleveland, Ohio whose work uses elements of nature to depict themes of interconnectedness. Through immersive drawings and paintings, she explores the reciprocal relationship between humans and the natural world. Beginning from direct observation, Sarah's artwork illustrates the inherent and overlooked beauty found in plants, flowers, and creatures. She is drawn to nature’s growth because of the way that plants grow into their most authentic forms with no explanation and no judgement. In that context, she believes the interplay between humans and other natural life is fascinating and grounding, inspiring her to live life simply and authentically. She communicates this idea of authenticity through the unpredictable materiality of ink washes. She uses this fluid process not only to help depict the story, but to allow herself to surrender to the unruly rhythms of nature as the subject. Sarah not only seeks to honor the beauty of nature, but brings attention to the responsibility we have to care for the earth we live on.
Outside of making art, Sarah enjoys curating spaces and supporting other artists in their own creative journeys. She graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the Cleveland Institute of Art in 2022.
