Join us for our speaker series, Artist in Action, as we talk with regional artist Marion Wilson.
Through paintings, photographs, and installations Marion interrogates our relationship to nature at a time when extreme climate change threatens ecosystems, livelihoods, and communities. Wilson builds partnerships with botanists, architects, and urban communities reflecting collective skillsets.
Wilson founded MLAB and MossLab (a mobile eco/art lab in a student renovated RV – driving from Syracuse to Miami examining moss species) and 601 Tully – the renovation of an abandoned 1900 residence into a neighborhood art center in upstate NY. Most recently, Wilson re-furbished a houseboat in Vineyard Haven, MA called 100 Lagoon Pond as both her art studio and a public platform towards collective lagoon health.
Wilson has exhibited with New Museum of Contemporary Art, NYC; Frederieke Taylor, NYC; Herbert Johnson Museum at Cornell University; and PULSE and SCOPE Miami/Art Basel; as well as numerous commissions for public artworks.
Curated and moderated by Áine Mickey, in partnership with the Seward Johnson Atelier.
Discover the local art community of Hamilton and Trenton, NJ at Grounds For Sculpture with an in-depth conversation on creative practice, technique, and histories. This program features a new artist each month, inviting them to share their perspective in conversation with the public.
