The Artist Spotlight.

A new editorial series on the people behind the doors at Rooted. Each feature pairs a full interview with up-close, personal photography of the artist and their craft: the hands, the tools, the details, the work.

A few of the faces you’ll meet this year.

Featurep. 13
Coming in January

Behind every door, a story.

Full interviews, studio portraits and close-ups of the craft. One artist at a time, twice a month.

Rooted is home to independent artists, each running a business entirely their own. Starting in January, The Spotlight will step inside their suites to tell those stories properly: how they started, what they’re known for, and what keeps clients coming back.

Every feature will be built like a magazine spread, with a long-form interview and photographs taken up close in the artist’s own space. Twice a month, a new artist takes the cover.
