Evan and Stacey Smith – St. Louis, MO.

Working as an artistic duo since 2017, Evan and Stacey combine their different backgrounds of art and
science to create artwork that represents and explores their personal stories in a way that leaves room for
viewers’ own experiences. Their collaboration started in 2017 when Evan asked Stacey to help him to
pursue more complex technologies. Stacey’s experience as an engineer brought new expertise to
enhance the sculptural works and installations he was creating. This partnership has led to several
exhibitions and shown them the power of a collaborative process. Evan and Stacey transform galleries
into welcoming spaces that create opportunities for viewers to access childhood memories or consider
what makes a space sacred. In their newest work, the duo utilizes playground structures commonly
associated with parks to explore childhood through an adult lens. Evan recently graduated from Southern
Illinois University Edwardsville with a Master of Fine Arts in Sculpture while Stacey studied Civil
Engineering and now works as a project manager for roadway design and construction in the St. Louis
area. They live and work in St. Louis, Missouri.
