New Wave is proud to announce Ann Lewis as its spring 2026 resident. During her 6-week stay in West Palm Beach, Lewis will realize a series of social practice activations centered around her installation at Rohi’s Liberation Station. There will be a free public program on Friday, March 6 from 2-4PM for New Wave Art Wknd.

During her residency with New Wave, Lewis will produce Ease, an immersive public artwork blending creativity, sensory experience, and the science of well-being. Participants are invited to pause, reflect, and reset their nervous systems in a supportive and accessible space. Designed to reduce anxiety and depression, this space utilizes trauma-informed design principles, meditative Solfeggio chimes, native aromatic plantings, ergonomic seating, and sustainable materials to create a restorative environment.

About Ann Lewis

Ann Lewis is a multidisciplinary activist artist who uses painting, installation, social practice, and participatory performance in public spaces to explore themes related to American identity, power structures, and justice through feminist pedagogy, community, and myth. Her work speculates on a future bereft of violence through communal creative healing sessions, the embodied contemplation of definitive autonomy, and nonviolent modes of creation.
