Opening July 2013 in the heart of Pioneer Square, owners and Northwest natives Kevin and Julie Law introduce AXIS Pioneer Square.
Inscape: noun [ in'ska¯p'] The essential, distinctive, and revelatory quality of a person, place or object; the distinctive, dynamic design that constitutes individual identity, especially as expressed in artistic work. Inscape: verb [ in'ska¯p'] To bring together the unique, essential qualities of many individuals to form a cohesive, distinct community. Inscape: building [ in'ska¯p'] A collaboration of creative people and organizations, brought together by a vision of artistic and cultural expression in all disciplines, to form a community that expresses its essential nature through culture, arts, preservation and engagement. With upwards of 125 tenants in 77,000 square feet of historic space, INSCAPE is the largest arts and culture enclave in Seattle. Small, creative businesses, individuals and non profit organizations with a focus in arts and culture use the space to facilitate and fabricate artistic work as well as design, build, and present creative and cultural endeavors. Artists and artisans of all disciplines are working throughout the building, bringing each individual’s dynamic energy to the space and collaborating to manifest a community born of creativity and steeped in a rich cultural history. Work spaces range in size from a few hundred square feet up to a few thousand, with an indeterminate amount of variation based on the configurations in place as well as the redesign of some spaces for the specific needs of tenants. We continue to bring as many unique disciplines into the building as possible, including performance art and theatre, music and dance, sculpture, painting and photography, architecture and design, digital media and a wide variety of other mediums of creative expression. With a collective of such magnitude and interest, we engage the greater community with performances, exhibitions, events and open houses, inviting the public to come and experience the arts in the place where they are made.

Melissa Painter is an Artist of Photography and Mixed Media. Armed with a macro lens and a penchant for really being in her work she is often found consumed by all things flora and fauna and covered with fiber, sand, glass, pigment and the occasional rusted razor blade. She hails from the Valle of the Cross in the Appalachian mountains, hands deep in the soil breathing soft mossy air and believing all the best things in life are to be felt deeply in every possible way. She was schooled formally at the Evergreen State College (BA in Art Therapy) and informally by folk art legend Irmaly Braken. When Melissa is not pursuing her other passion as an Intuitive Advisor/ Tarot Reader, she can be found most evenings mixing it up at the Lux Divinorum Designs Studio in the Inscape Arts building, Seattle Washington.
