Matthew Jensen introduces an investigative approach to Wave Hill's gardens. Participants explore the act of collecting and the structure of typologies as tools for communicating concepts and notions of place. They photograph as they walk, using these images to create and present a collection based on their findings.
Now in its third year, Wave Hill's Winter Workspace Program transforms Glyndor Gallery into a space for artists to create new work and develop ongoing projects. The second session (February 14 - March 25) includes Gabriela Albergaria, Matthew Burcaw, Matthew Jensen, Nova Jiang and Cameron Rowland, whose projects include botanical block printing and unconventional mapping of the grounds. During their six-week session, artists will lead hands-on workshops, as well as open studios, giving visitors the opportunity to converse with the artists and learn about the creative process behind each project.
Be sure to bring a digital camera. Children ages 12 and older accompanied by an adult. Free with admission to the grounds.
