Ralph Lauren's "Artist in Residence" program continues with the second drop of Naiomi Glasses spring collection. "This collection celebrates the sportiness we all have in ourselves. I want this collection to inspire you to get out there and feel like you can do anything. I want people to look at this as a chance to see color and not run away from it, rather to embrace it wholeheartedly."
Amb motiu de la resolució de la beca de la beca anual d'intercanvi d'Espai sant Marc espai de creació i residències artístiques de Sineu i Lichtenberg Studios espai de residències de Berlín, ens reunim amb el director de l'Institut d'Estudis Baleàrics Llorenç Perelló en Ca n'Oleo per a presentar a la guanyadora d'enguany l'artista visual Marijo Ribàs. L'Institut d'Estudis Baleàrics dona suport a Espai Sant Marc com a Centre de Creació.
El mes de juny aquesta artista viatjarà a Berlín per a desenvolupar un projecte específic. Per la seva part Lichtenberg Studios envia el mes vinent de març a l'artista noruega establerta a Berlín Berit Myreboee, que treballarà en el taller de gràfica d'Espai Sant Marc. Aquest intercanvi té com a fi donar suport a la creació i desenvolupar experiències de col·laboració entre els dos espais.
Espai Sant Marc des de l'any passat realitza aquest intercanvi amb Lichtenberg Studios, que ofereix un apartament perfectament equipat en l'històric barri perquè artistes visuals desenvolupin i donin a conèixer el seu treball. Aquesta residència depèn de la municipalitat de l'àrea de Lichtenberg, la més a l'est de la capital alemanya, que des de 2011 implementa un reconegut programa de residències que posa en relació l'art amb la realitat d'aquesta barriada, oferint allotjament, mitjans per a explorar la zona, una publicació periòdica i un open studio.

Aw, man. Shenandoah National Park in Virginia has an Artist-in-residence program open for applications. I want to do that.. a Lot. However, the term is three weeks, and I don’t see how I could manage to get away for that long. One of the terms of the agreement is that you donate one of your completed works to the park for display, which seems like a good thing to me. I certainly wouldn’t mind having my work hung in their display. It’s about a three hour drive to get there.
Starting this month on June 1st, with the help of @indecisartistrun, and @mimiciora we did a collaborative colouring book with he children from their community. Everyone filled the page with what they would take with them when they inevitably have to move to space. The book is in the shape of a rocket to help them in thgeur space explorations 🚀
The editorial illustration I made for a rather heartbreaking text written by Alexandra Voivozeanu for AnthroArt. You can read it in full here. I also recommend browsing their articles for more insightful texts and drawings into different social and environmental anthropological issues.
Had to get back to Cluj-Napoca, where I prepared a little book with sketches, ideas and in-process projects for ArtiViStory's exhibition: UNBOXED STORIES - Urban comics with ArtiViStory Collective. The little blue zine takes the shape of a silkworm and is titled: The last sleep in my silk cocoon.
Getting back to Cluj meant that I could finally pick up the drawings I made in collaboration with Anca, that she gracefully left at our old apartment when she passed by. The drawings are an ongoing collaborative project, started by Ana Kun and Covrig (Anca Dima), called Half&Half. Each artist that takes part in it has to make two half-drawings that will be finished by another artist of their choice, both getting to keep one of them at the end.
Got back to Timișoara and drew this along with Ana, as preparation for a bigger project that will have us draw together on a huge piece of paper.
The Balamuc residency got us all together again for a Weidly-shaped-Zine workshop I conducted as part of the 9 public events of the program. Thanks to everyone who attended for your openness ad creativity :o)
Happened to find myself in Bucharest at the end of June, so I had to visit Covrig at her studio, which was the main place in which I hanged out while Gavril was putting up his stunning duo show with Giulia Crețulescu at Ivan Gallery. She was kind enough to let me use her aerograph, here are some drawings I made. While there, Alin from BooksForFriends brought me the riso posters we collaborated on. The prints are made after a digital drawing I made around Easter, printed in three colours on 42x30cm paper. They can still be bought from either me or from BFF's page.
While on a mini Bucharest vacation, I found some time to inaugurate the big, scary A4 sketchbook I've been carrying around for a few months.
Had to rush back to Timișoara to organise my last solo workshop within the Balamuc Make a Wish Residency. Based on a huge map I drew as a kid of places where I'd like to escape to, I created a workshop in which we all work on a collaborative map of recurrent dream locations. Similar to the places that I'd draw on the map when I was 9, this map also includes fantastical places that serve as an escape to the adult world, in our dreams. I posted my contributions.
Thanks to Flo from The Secret Garden, I received the first prints of my speculative gouache book, Who is Adriana?. I made this book during my Erasmus scholarship at Academia de Belle Arti in Bari, trying to explore what could be the identity of Adriana, the name that my neighbour screamed for every night. I never expected this project to gain as much popularity as it got, but the pleasantly good reception gave me the right kind of push to print it in order for people to have their own copy as well.
I joined “Gunjo Odaka” which is the artist in residency in Minamisoma, Fukushima👏 I stayed in Odaka for about 2 weeks.
I made an animation about nature which I saw and listened in Odaka.
I realised many living things such as birds, horse, butterflies, plants, and sea in Odaka🐴🦋🪴 It reminds me of my hometown in Fukushima prefecture, and made me feel my childhoods. I’ve recently become aware of the importance of striking the balance between development of the city and nature. For making a living, I feel I need to live in the city because of conveniences, but also to live with nature. So I became to focus on nature in Odaka.
In addition, local people usually live in Japanese style rooms.
I came up with projecting my animation to the Japanese sliding door which is called “Fusuma” in a room because the sliding doors are often painted with nature motifs❣️
In Odaka, it seems people try to communicate with others because the population is still small since the evacuation was lifted several years ago. I met many people and some of them are from other prefectures. I look forward to the future development of Odaka.
Thank you so much to everyone who supported and helped with this project✨
sTo Len, whose fascination with waste removal started when he was a child, is the New York Department of Sanitation’s current artist in residence.
His interdisciplinary art project “Office of Invisibility” aims to spark curiosity from the public about sanitation practices and to re-contextualize the DSNY as diligently working toward a healthier and more sustainable city.
Len has been digitizing the footage to contribute to the DSNY media archive as well, claiming that he’s gotten through around half of the records so far. These documents of now-defunct incinerators, residential trash collection procedures, and operations across the city’s inactive landfills, he says, are a missing piece of New York City’s history.
Reporter Rhea Nayyar speaks with the artist in her latest article.

Stop by the Bowness Community Association (BCA) and check out their plant library! As part of my project with the BCA ARTS Program, I have placed some small sculptures made from polymer clay in the plant library which are free for anyone to take. Maybe they can live in your plant pot!
