LaiSun Keane, who opened her Boston-based namesake gallery during the pandemic itself, returned to Future for her second year with a solo presentation of ceramic tiles and standalone vessels by Raina Lee — all inspired by Lee’s travels across Spain.
Keane mentioned to me that the fair has sharpened its vision after the trial-and-error growing pains of debuting during the global health emergency. “I really can appreciate its growth, and I honestly see it as a direct competitor to NADA — if not better, since there’s less of the ‘elitist’ exclusivity to [Future],” she remarked.
