If you are sure she must be in the studio, then put some fresh food out and leave. If she can come out from hiding, she will eventually. She’s scared and needs time to decompress and explore and feel safe. If the food is still there after 24 hours, then I’d do another search to be certain she isn’t stuck in some very tiny hiding spot.
