Signing this contract could be the biggest mistake of my life or the best
decision I have ever made.
I stare at the blank line where I should sign my name next to Madyson
Rose’s signature, the owner of The Artistic Edge Gallery. Resting my elbow
on the desk, I grind my throbbing forehead into my palm.
I have been through all the pros and cons of becoming a contract sculptor
but did not realize that taking the final step would be so hard. Madyson
offered to give me more time, but I declined to put off the inevitable.
I want to do this. Helvete, I need this move for my sanity.
A bead of sweat runs down my back at the enormity of an impulsive move
halfway around the world from Sweden to New York City. My mind runs
through all the reasons why I should do this.
Last year was the worst year of my life, and a fresh start is a relief. The
grief and media speculation are too intrusive in my home country. I crave
the anonymity of New York. No one here knows who I am, so I can breathe
again.
My friend Lars has always been more famous than me since he plays for the
New York Enforcers NHL team. Visiting him is the perfect escape. Deep
down I must have been planning to stay because even though it was
supposed to be a ten-day trip, I packed enough clothes for a month.
Time ticks by as I stare at the contract. It obligates me to be an exclusive
artist for The Artistic Edge in exchange for a free workspace. Yesterday, I
met Madyson and her husband Jayce through Lars. Jayce is a retired player
who works for the Enforcers. Madyson and I immediately bonded over art.
She invited me for a tour of her gallery and proposed a contract based on
the pictures of my sculptures I showed her on my phone.
As soon as I saw the gallery, I knew it was the right place for me. The
gallery personifies the name Edge. It’s bold and colorful. Where most
galleries are bland to let the art shine, everything in here is art. The walls
are a soft gray with lots of crown molding and the artists created the
lighting, with soft hues of rainbow colors shining throughout the space.
Madyson has displayed the widest variety of art I have ever seen outside of
a museum. There are sculptures of different materials: ceramics, clay
pottery, jewelry, and abstract items. Madyson’s personal art is all ceramic
and incredibly detailed. I believe she is, in her words, a sucker for a starving
artist, but it’s clear she has a good eye and an even bigger heart.
I will never get a better deal with a lease for a place to live included. The
furnished loft and access to the artists’ workshop are bonuses in the
contract. It requires every artist to donate time as both an art handler and an
assistant.
