The 2022-23 Studio Artists were selected by panelists: Chloë Bass (@publicinvestigator), Artist & Public Practitioner, Alison Burstein (@a.burstein) Curator at The Kitchen, and Gabriel de Guzman (@gabrield3), Director of Arts & Chief Curator at Wave Hill. Preliminary panelists included former Studio or Exhibition Artists: Patricia Encarnación, Tamara Kostianovsky, Christie Neptune, Rowan Renee, Ginger Brooks Takahashi, and Ezra Wube.
As part of the Artist Studio Program, the artists will be granted a private studio, a fellowship, and access to equipment with which to create new and develop existing work, establish relationships with arts professionals, and grow in community with their peers—all with the financial, technical, and administrative support of Smack Mellon.
