Frances Baker
Protected by Angels, Frances Baker is an Artist Producer that creates the perfect atmosphere for driving with the windows down, and melting into the sun on a picnic.
Stefan Thev
STEFAN is the type of artist whose music doesn't fit into any one genre. His music is filled with elements of progressive rock, bedroom pop, indie rock, DIY punk, and R&B. This versatility and willingness to share his personal struggles helps to establish him as an artist to watch in the Alternative Rock scene as more of his genre-defying music releases.
Zami
Zami is an incredible gifted singer and songwriter, who has been featured on Berklee Colleges two- track series.
AF-1 Shawty
AF1Shawty is a very talented popstar on they rise.

WORDS BY SAM FISH
For myself, there is a beauty in isolation. Mainly since, through constant self-exploration, it continues to highlight my inherent desire to be be with others. To be seen. To be loved. To share life. And to communicate my experiences. Through isolation, I feel our connectedness, or oneness, on a different, more intrinsic level.
I’m sure this is a strange and painful time for a lot of you, but there is undoubtedly some good in it— since we are going through it together.
My work is about people. It’s about me. And you. It’s about the love I have for our similarities and our unique differences. And the pain I feel to be alone in this world, at times.
It’s an extraction of the desperate passion I have to share my human. And I just took it to a very extremely literal representation with this installation. Stop looking at my butt.
I do believe the more windows we have into the soul, the brighter our days will be. And with those windows, we can all see and love each other in clearer way.
Yes, there is pain in isolation, but there is also healing. I think the planet is probably pretty stoked that we’re all in time out right now. It’s giving us humans all some time to think and reflect on what’s important.
And a big part of that (abating environmental destruction aside) is that we love being together. Sharing our lives together. And I can guarantee, that whenever I can, I will want to share with you. And hopefully you will want to share with me. Let’s call it a party! In the meantime, I’ll be here, waiting, lying on the floor drawing pictures.
See you soon.
Love,
Sam.
It’s time to get fucking real. The world is literally and existentially falling apart at our fingertips. As a world, as a culture, as a community, some of us cling tightly to traditions and systems that have outlived their value and others believe in a complete revolution to set us on a corrective path.
Dealing with what seems like the knowledge that it’s all falling apart, and the fact that we can see that change playing out in the palm of our hands, is pretty damn anxiety inducing. As humans collectively, we’re causing some serious chaos right now.
In discourse with this global perspective on chaos, we have to focus in and change the lens.
Inside EXIT, you find creative chaos— an energy that’s passionate, progressive, and obsessed with the process. The world is ours to make, and we can choose our path. As artists, as it always has been, we are in charge of creating the underlying current for cultural change.
Come Into Chaos and feel what a couple of artists, having never created together before, make in a collaborative space together, inspired by each others powers.
As humans, we all share a burden of the mind and it’s conscious awareness of the unavoidable future. Yet we are all living, incredibly, here and now; and we can celebrate and communicate with each other in the present - in the hopes that it will inspire what will come.
Catch a glimpse of some of Sam & Katie’s collaborative chaos in prep for the show opening on Friday, March 13th.
