We are thrilled to announce Circling Studios’ first exhibition! Taking place as part of our residency at Delight Factory this July, Circling In Situ is an interdisciplinary art exhibition of work from past Circling featured artists:

🔹Mona Saeed Kamal
🔹Krystiana Kosobucki-Howell
🔹Marilyn Mitchell
🔹Natalie Preston
🔹Lynnette Therese Sauer
🔹Nicholas Thomson
🔹Veronica Velasquez
🔹Sara J. Winston

Circling In Situ contextualizes the work of New York area artists within their daily life, home, and logistical concerns. One artist makes photographs in spare moments while receiving medical treatment, another turns his neighborhood into a painting studio; a third uses found objects from a family home to connect local and familial history with global struggle.

There are as many ways to be an artist and sustain creative practice as there are people, and this collection of works showcases a diversity of not just subject matter and medium, but of the ways that the work comes into being. True to Circling’s ethos, a companion zine makes visible part of the constellation of objects, practices, and relationships that make these creations possible. While each artist works in their own medium and manner, this exhibition brings them together to highlight how the creative practice fits into the artist’s life.

Events and Viewing Opportunities:
🔹Opening Reception: Thursday, July 9, 6-9pm — RSVP (free; refreshments provided)
🔹Closing Reception: Friday, July 31, 7-10pm — RSVP (free; refreshments provided)
🔹On view during all Circling workshops in July: Full Residency Calendar
🔹And by appointment: email delightfactorynyc@gmail.com to arrange

For the third year in a row, one of my artworks was included in the Bemis Center’s annual benefit auction. It’s always a pleasure to see my work in its new home – and what a lovely setting this one ended up in, with a lively green houseplant to keep it company!

This drawing is one of a series of my meditation drawings made about a year ago, in the first autumn of the pandemic – back home to New York, numbers rising again, the uncertainties of winter lying ahead. After time away from my studio, and away from the normal routines of life, I returned with a sense of urgency to these drawings – some in ink, some (like this one) in colored pencil. Looking at them now reminds me of feeling a bit desperate to get marks onto paper. The layered lines remind me of the warp and weft of the weaving made by my grandmother that hangs on the wall of our apartment, and of the way you can obscure a line of text best by writing something else right on top of it.

You can view more of the drawings in this series here, and bring one to your own home – here.

I recently picked up these three drawings after the conclusion of “Darkest Before Dawn” at Ethan Cohen KuBe which was extended through the end of February. Really appreciated the pairing of these pieces with a loose gestural wall drawing that provided some warmth and high energy.

The drive to Beacon was all almost-green, everything on the verge of displaying springtime growth. The red flourishes on the wall below were part of a larger mural in the KuBe, which inhabits an old school building in Beacon, NY.
