About the Artist:
Fiber artist and interior designer, Candice Luter, creates custom wood and fiber decor. Influenced by her travels to Europe, she skillfully blends mid-century modern, art deco, and minimalist styles. In 2014, she began creating one-of-a-kind designs using remnant scraps of wood and fabric from her home studio. What start started as a hobby continued to build momentum and became Candice Luter | Art + Interiors, a collection of commercial art and approachable, unique home accents. With work commissioned for major retailers and hotel chains all over the country, a line in West Elm’s Local Artist Collaboration, and a feature in JoJo Fletcher’s Etsy Collection, the popularity of her work continues to grow.
All artworks at the Pierce are by local women artists and sourced by Latela Curatorial, a full service art advisory studio based in Washington DC.
Services include art acquisition, installation, lighting/framing, collections management, sales market reporting and more.

Why focus on local, women-identifying artists?
“Today, in the year 2021, women artists’ sales still make up only 2% of the global market. Despite highly visible efforts to counter the absence of women artists in international museum collections, very little action has been directed toward this jarring discrepancy in emerging to established women artists’ primary survival mechanism: the creative economy.
Further, DC, Maryland, and Virginia artists are working in a deeply engaged local art world that is at the red-hot center of the United States’ political landscape, and yet their voices are largely dismissed by the international art community and press.
The Pierce’s distinctive decision to collect only artwork by women artists who are also local - living, creating and exhibiting in its vicinity - sets a precedent for what it really means to support the arts.”
