Two new artists moved in this week, both from Pratt Institute as part of our joint residency program. Borinquen Gallo joins from Pratt School of Art and stay tuned to see what she makes on June 25th for Open Studios!

Borinquen Gallo is an Italian-Puerto Rican multi-disciplinary artist whose work delves into themes of material personal and social transformation, community development, reimagined socio-cultural systems and structures, through sculpture and installations made using a range of repurposed materials. Her work is developed both individually  and collaboratively through participatory initiatives including public schools, museums, community and cultural organizations.

Two new artists moved in this week, both from Pratt Institute as part of our joint residency program. Ari Elefterin comes from Pratt’s School of Design. They’ll be at KinoSaito until the end of June, so be sure to see their work on June 25th during Open Studios.

Ari makes work for and about the human body. Their projects often incorporate still and moving imagery alongside performance, drawing from their diverse background in graphic and industrial design, education, and dance. Using sense theory (their favorite is touch), speculation, ethnographic frameworks, and a process-based approach, they seek to invigorate the imagination of their audience and spark new methods for moving through the world. Often dealing in subject matter related to human health and our relationship with nature, their goal is to contribute to a more holistically considered future.
