“In the end, I just miss the before” by Stevie Haley Delgado

Stevie Haley Delgado builds transitory worlds through papier-mâché sculpture, constructed cardboard spaces, and the interplay of light and shadow, creating atmospheric environments that invite exploration, curiosity, and reflection. This work explores the complexity of childhood wonder when muddled with grief, tragedy, and a decaying sense of self. Central to this practice are echoes of her lived experiences—particularly the fleeting nature of young queer relationships and the tragedy that can often surround them. 

This show is in Peter Paul Luce Gallery, McWethy Hall, and is open and free to the public. Gallery hours are 9 a.m.–4 p.m. on weekdays and Sundays from 2–4 p.m.
