Louis Buhl & Co. is pleased to present Melting into a Soup of Selves, Basil Kincaid’s first-ever embroidered edition, releasing on December 10th, 2025. Known for intricate textile works spanning quilting and embroidery, Kincaid often explores the power of action, intention, and the possibility of radical transformation through a spectrum of works that navigate abstract and narrative modalities. The limited edition comprises 10 pieces, each measuring 24 x 18 inches, and comes ready to hang in a white frame.
“I’m in the middle of a physical and spiritual growth spurt, broken down to my core components, reforming. Every time I reach one of these transitional chapters in life, I reflect on memory—each lived experience provides lessons and perspectives that sculpt us. I get this sensation that recalls the caterpillar’s life cycle, but for us we are continually reforming: melting and rebuilding. Within this work I feel the blossoming that comes with that process of becoming. I’m recording the fluidity between mind, body, essential self, and experience.”
