This February, Nuwave Gallery is proud to present The Meantime Chronicles: Volume 2, an extraordinary art showcase by the visionary Kyle Krauskopf. Known for his innovative approach to blending storytelling and visual art, Kyle’s latest project dives deep into the beauty of life’s “meantime” moments — the spaces between milestones where creativity and connection flourish.

A Year-Long Creative Journey

The Meantime Chronicles: Volume 2 is the culmination of an ambitious year-long project that challenged Kyle to create one artwork and one short story every week for an entire year. But he didn’t do it alone—he invited friends from across the globe to inspire him by providing prompts. These prompts, from a diverse group of collaborators spanning five countries, became the foundation for 52 unique artworks and stories that reflect the depth and breadth of human creativity and connection.

Each artwork tells a story, literally and visually, giving visitors the chance to experience an immersive journey through Kyle’s creative lens. From poignant reflections on life’s quiet moments to bold expressions of imagination, every piece in the collection is both deeply personal and universally relatable.

Kyle shares his perspective on the collection: “Life is primarily comprised of the meantime. Use it, enjoy it, do whatever you like with it, but don’t forget the most important part: the people who give it meaning.” His work reminds us that the moments we often overlook — the waiting, the dreaming, the connections — are what truly shape our lives.

Kyle’s Book: The Meantime Chronicles

For those who want to take a piece of this incredible project home, Kyle’s book, The Meantime Chronicles: Volume 2, will be available for purchase during the show. The book is more than a collection of art; it’s a full narrative experience, weaving together 52 stories and illustrations into a single compelling volume. With over 55,000 words and stunning visuals, the book captures the essence of the exhibition and serves as a lasting keepsake for art and storytelling enthusiasts alike.

Each story in the book was inspired by a unique prompt, showcasing the power of collaboration and the richness of diverse perspectives. Whether you’re a fan of visual art, written stories, or both, the book offers a deeper dive into the world Kyle has created and is sure to spark your imagination long after you’ve left the gallery.

In addition to the book, all 52 artworks featured in the exhibition will be available for purchase. Each piece includes its accompanying story, allowing collectors to own not just a stunning visual creation but also the narrative that inspired it. This connection between word and image adds a powerful layer of meaning, making each piece a conversation starter and a source of inspiration for years to come.
