In the Gallery at Brooklyn Metal Works is pleased to announce Jolynn Santiago’s new solo exhibition, surroundings. On view September 13th through November 9th, 2025, the exhibition will include new jewelry works by the artist drawn from her investigations of settling dust and the accumulations which mark the gentle passage of time. 

By fusing silver and gold fragments within ring-shaped moulds carved from graphite, Santiago creates a cycle of renewal formed by debris. With these works, Santiago asks us to become attuned to our surroundings, to register the layers beneath us, and take a breath. 

surroundings opens at In the Gallery at Brooklyn Metal Works on Saturday, September 13th, with a free public reception from 7 - 9 PM. The exhibition is organized by Brooklyn Metal Works in collaboration with the artist. 

Join us for an Artist Talk with Jolynn Santiago at Brooklyn Metal Works on Saturday, November 8th, 2 - 3 PM.
