Selection as a 2025 recipient of the Ampersand Foundation Residency in New York

I recently learned that I had been nominated, and selected, to participate in the Ampersand Foundation’s New York residency.

For the month of November, I will be based in central New York where my mission will be to immerse myself in New York life, and expose myself to new people, spaces, foods and ideas. I intend to visit as many museums and art galleries as time allows, and am in discussion with a local drawing group to possibly connect.

I look forward to reporting on my time in New York upon my return, as well as reflecting on the experience in my studio.

Thank you to the Ampersand Foundation for the opportunity, that has been perfectly timed. And to the anonymous person/colleague who nominated me for the opportunity.
