Nailhouse
The Studio
The Nailhouse is the heart of our artist residency. It serves as a studio and soak room where experimentation, collaboration, and ritual converge between artist and collector.
Works
At Cure, our artists approach nails as ephemeral works, fleeting expressions shaped by care and concept. Embracing impermanence, these short-lived pieces capture moments of beauty, exploring form, texture, and narrative to transform nails into living canvases for multidimensional expression.
Each piece is rendered in 2D or 3D and finished with a solid gel paint, included as part of the work. Applied through painterly techniques, these medium builds depth and pigment, blurring the line between fine art and ritual.
Collectors may choose up to two adornments to enhance their works—refinements that introduce texture, brilliance, and dimension. Beyond that, the piece transitions into assemblage, shifting into a more sculptural form.
For those seeking greater scale or a deeper narrative, long-form sculptures are available by commission at a higher investment, with considerations for form and complexity.
2D
These ephemeral works treat the natural nail as a minimalist yet powerful canvas by emphasizing a dry cuticle contour, detailed shaping, surface design and solid painterly techniques with gel.
Commissions for 2D paintings begin at $60
3D
These ephemeral sculptures use mediums like acrylic and gel to build bold, structural forms—evolving into architectural statements that explore strength, volume, dry cuticle contouring, and solid gel painting.
Commissions for 3D sculptures begin at $80
Assemblage
Employing a mixed-media approach, these ephemeral sculptures fuse an array of elements like hard gels, metallic accents, encapsulation, and more to bring narrative to a 2D or 3D structure.
Commissions for Assemblage works begin at $100
The Soak Room
A space for returning to self, where care becomes ceremony and the senses are engaged through intentional footwork and touch.
Immersions & Emmersions
Immersions are our curated multisensory experiences, centered in renewal, adornment, and beauty. Each experience is carefully curated to transform routine care into a celebration of ritual and rejuvenation.
Emmersions are created for those whose needs require deeper attention and grace. This dry experience is designed with intention—offering quiet precision, thoughtful touch, and refined beauty without water.
