• Daily Sculpture Project By Damien Hoar (freeyork.org) — A Milton-based artist has been quietly creating a small wood sculpture every day in his home studio, a discipline that led to a major exhibition and prize at Boston's ICA. Damien Hoar de Galvan's yearlong project of reclaimed-wood assemblages, begun in 2024, has since grown into museum and gallery shows from Boston to Tokyo, all rooted in that Milton studio practice.
