Eyes as Big as Plates in residence // New York!

Eyes as Big as Plates’ new headquarters for the next two months will be the Intercourse at 159 Pioneer Street in Redhook. Generously hosted by Recess Session, our studio will be welcoming visitors, participants and curious New Yorkers. On display in the studio will be photographs from Finland and Norway, as well as costumes  and new works in progress. We are currently recruiting models for our upcoming photo shoots in and around the city. Please get in touch if you would like to participate!

Alongside the Recess Session, Riitta Ikonen and I are also taking part in Lower Manhattan Cultural Council‘s residency program ‘Seniors Partnering with Artists Citywide’ (SPARC), collaborating with Alison Kuo, Yue Lin and the wonderful people of the City Hall Senior Center.

A very own Eyes as Big as Plates blog has been launched for the occasion, check in for frequent updates throughout the residency!
