What a super opening of “Necessary Voices” exhibition, celebrating curators and gallerists alongside the artists they champion.
CURATED BY .studio


Such a good vibe in this show, a coming together of different art perspectives and necessary voices. This is exactly what we need right now and coming together and sharing of ideas. More of this in the art world and beyond!!!

Thank you to for inviting me to curator a part of it and invite the amazing artists I selected . Here’s to collaborations

This exhibition brings together four influential women in the contemporary art scene, each shaping the landscape in the CT and New York region. These curators have selected emerging & established artists whose work they believe carries urgent, resonant, and necessary voices today.

Some visual highlights from NY Gallery week, selections from

Just what was needed a marathon input of artistic expression, some absolutely wonderful and others just a repeat. We r preparing for reopening in a few weeks May 31, with our out door exhibition “Garden of Delights” a cross between sculpture garden and planted garden (we still need a bit of help with the component), our small candy shop gallery and a section of public art installations for the public to enjoy 24/7. Always looking for new art, artists, projects, collaborators, performers, educators to join in our garden of talent and surprises.

It was so lovely these past few days to see so many old friends, colleagues and many new ones out and about taking the art world productions. Some people say what’s the point of going to the art fairs but it is always a pleasure to get out there and see so much art and people who make up this artistic mosiac of the art world.

Please reach out for more info on “Garden of Delights” and how to get involved in our Summer of fun and inspiration. It’s what we all need right now, planting creativity seeds of thoughts and ideas to spread to create a landscape that inspires.
