Lost and Found: Carol Bouyoucos and Tina Scepanovic at The Gallery at Yellow Studio
A Dialogue Between Past and Future
Cross River, NY–The Gallery at Yellow Studio presents “Lost and Found,” a dynamic two-person exhibition featuring artists Carol Bouyoucos and Tina Scepanovic. From February 15 to March 14, this thoughtfully curated show explores the intersection of traditional craftsmanship and technological innovation, as the artists move in opposite yet complementary directions; one mining the richness of historical techniques, the other pioneering new digital territories. Join us for an opening reception on Saturday, February 22 from 4 to 6pm.
Through this compelling pairing, Scepanovic resurrects traditional processes and forgotten materials, working with centuries-old water gilding techniques and transforming vintage glass to create contemporary meaning from the past. In contrast, Bouyoucos pushes into future realms through post-photographic explorations, employing artificial intelligence and digital tools to reshape our visual understanding of the natural world. Together, their works demonstrate how contemporary art can simultaneously honor historical methods while embracing emerging technologies, creating a rich dialogue between what is lost to time and what is found through innovation.
ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Carol Bouyoucos is a contemporary American artist exploring the intersection between nature and technology. Her digital photographic works evoke the romanticism and nostalgia of nineteenth-century painting, though created with distinctly 21st-century tools. Based at Meadowside Cottage at the Marsh Sanctuary in Mount Kisco, NY, Bouyoucos has exhibited her work internationally and is actively involved in local art communities, museums, and the Bedford Garden Club. She holds a BFA from The University of Michigan’s School of Art and Design. For more information, visit carolgreenanbouyoucos.com

Drawing from her background in furniture restoration, she transforms vintage materials and employs traditional processes like Renaissance-era water gilding in her sculptures and installations. Trained at the Isabel O’Neil Studio in NYC and under master gilder Charles Douglas, Scepanovic’s work has been exhibited at prestigious venues including Salon Art + Design and The Painting Center, featured in the New York Times, and collected internationally.
