Governors Island Tenant Spotlight: the Arts Center Artists-In-Residence

"I have time and space to not only focus my studio production but to deeply contemplate each step towards the realization of my present project without distraction. It means visitors can see and discuss my work in progress with me in a very impressive and accessible venue. It means I can closely observe the local trees that inspire me for over a year."
