While supplies last! Maison Millefleurs is created by artists Rhonda Weppler and Trevor Mahovsky, with 3D printing and lighting design by Wade Weppler, and assistance from Richard Winchell. This project is presented in partnership with Battery Park City Authority.

Rhonda Weppler and Trevor Mahovsky, based in New York and Toronto respectively, have worked collaboratively since 2004. Their work has increasingly incorporated communal aspects of craft, such as DIY tutorial videos, and virtual crafting bees. Their video project Crafts Abyss was hosted by the Museum of Arts & Design (NYC, 2021). Other recent activities include the Odette Sculpture Residency at York University (Toronto, 2022), a major temporary outdoor work for OpenArt (Orebro, Sweden, 2022), as well as solo exhibitions at Susan Hobbs Gallery (Toronto, 2023), The Arts Center at Governors Island (NYC, 2023), Owens Art Gallery (Sackville, 2024), and the Esker Foundation (Calgary, 2024). Their work is represented in public collections including the Musee d’art Contemporain de Montreal, Vancouver Art Gallery, and the National Gallery of Canada.

This project is made possible by the generous support of Battery Park City Authority.
