Water Stories invites audiences to immerse themselves in the poetic essence and ecological significance of water. The exhibition highlights stories of our local waterfronts, coastlines and waterbodies and places them in conversation with global narratives, historical legacies, and imagined futures. Through a blend of immersive multi-sensory installations and interactive artworks, this exhibition encourages a reflective journey and underscores the critical importance of water in all our lives.
Curated by: Elena Soterakis
Exhibiting Artists: Anne Hollænder, Arantxa Araujo, Christopher Lin, DB Lampman, DLX Design Lab, Edrex Fontanilla, Elizabeth Hénaff, Heather Parrish, Keren Anavy, Léonard Roussel, Nathan Kensinger, Ranjit Bhatnagar, Sara Kostić, Sarah Nelson Wright, Seth Wenger, Yan Shao, and Yoko Shimizu.
In addition to works presented in the gallery, Water Stories features a year of public programs and community engagement activities. These events aim to strengthen our connection to local waterfronts and inspire us all to be citizen scientists.

Office of Council Member Alexa Avilés
4417 4 Ave.
Ground floor
In preparation for the upcoming election and in collaboration with Council Member Alexa Avilés' District 38 office, filmmaker and artist Jaime Sunwoo hopes to activate our community to get out the vote and learn about local voting initiatives. The film celebrates suffragists of color who fought for women's voting rights, the progress we've made, and the continued fight for equality.
Her short film, Equality Tea, draws parallels between the fraught histories of the tea trade and the suffrage movement. Throughout America, women organized tea parties for meetings and fundraisers to support the suffrage movement. The Woman’s Suffrage Party sold ceylon, young hyson, gunpowder, and oolong tea under their charitable brand “Equality Tea.” Yet the history of tea is steeped in inequality, driven by colonialism, war, and appropriation.
Created by Jaime Sunwoo. Original score by Matt Chilton, based on a 1895 suffragist anthem by Augusta Gray Gunn. Commissioned by Park Avenue Armory and The Laundromat Project for 100 Years | 100 Women.
Subtitles: English, Spanish, Chinese

About Audrey Frank Anastasi:
Creating artwork can be a powerful universal vehicle for human connection. For me the challenges to touch the timeless themes, iterated in visual art, literature, drama, and music throughout recorded history, while remaining relevant and responsive to ones own cultural place in the timeline. Since childhood to the present day, I’ve been a painter and visual artist. My images are primarily painted directly from life, with a subject typically casting a gaze back at the viewer. My paintings respond to themes of humanity - my fellow women, forced migration, social justice, civil rights, natural and man-made calamities, as well as the respite of natures continuum. My process comes from my desire to bypass self-conscious inhibitions in the pursuit of expression.

About Jeanette May:
My still life photographs of vintage tech embrace our anxiety around technological obsolescence. I reference classic “vanitas” still life paintings, Cabinets of Curiosities, and contemporary advertising photography. I collect radios, landline phones, clocks, and movie projectors from a range of time periods and photograph digitally. Early training as a painter influences my attention to color and composition.

Open Studio with artist Stephanie Eche.
About Stephanie Eche:
My work is about my experience as a third-generation Chicana (American of Mexican descent) mother, artist, and community member, living in New York City. I am interested in preserving my insights because they help fill the void of lived experience by women of color that colonialism and capitalism attempts to erase. I draw inspiration from mestizo cultures, my own automatic drawings, family records, mothering, and literature to create imagery that helps me reclaim and understand my identity. I make paintings to make solid the memories that slip through my fingers.

Open Studios featuring Todd Cramer, Manuel Hernandez, Jackson Hill, Victor Chinedu.
About the artists:
Todd Cramer (b. 1999, Las Vegas, Nevada) is a New York-based artist whose diverse artistic practice encompasses painting, drawing, sculpture, and performance. Drawing inspiration from the realm of old video games, comic books, and comics-derived art, he embraces the freedom of automatism, allowing his hand to guide the creative process without inhibition. His imaginative works take the form of psychic landscapes, where monstrous figures, vivid colors, and a garish, comic, and grotesque aesthetic intertwine. Having pursued an MFA at the esteemed New York Academy of Art, his multidimensional approach extends across various mediums, seamlessly incorporating text and curatorial projects. With figurative paintings that challenge conventional notions of scale, stylization, and paint application, his art provokes and challenges viewers, evoking an introspective and thought-provoking inner dialogue.

Open Studios featuring Jessica Nissen and Tim Clifford.
About Jessica Nissen:
Everyone’s memories no matter how vivid or murky become compressed and are filtered through understanding and new experience. There is a continuous effort to reconcile what we are and what we are becoming: to find connections and to feel connected. Rare spurts of lucidity may, if we’re lucky, reveal relationships between all that is variant, salty, elegant, chaotic, terrifying, breathtaking, and fragile; moments of collision. The more we become aware, the more the questions change, driving us to make these visions tangible. The “Froth” painting series is a return to imagery inspired by the rhythms and systems in nature. The language of nature is universal. We recognize ourselves in the organic; we search for ourselves in the synthetic. These works reflect forms that are fragile and are in constant flux composed of an undefined liquid in mid churn...perhaps the primordial mud from which life arises or maybe more ominously towards which we are headed. These are turbulent times and the paintings reveal an unsettling tension between lushness and the apocalyptic.

Open Studio with artist Sandrine Gigon.
About Sandrine Gigon:
Simplicity and ordinary life has become an extraordinary and transformative experience. I enjoy the moment and integrate shapes of nature in my work. I constantly play with colors and lines. I try to spend as much time as possible outside as it is my inspiration. I see the landscape as life-force and try to feel the energy and emotion around places and things. I currently concentrate on woodcut techniques.

Featuring three murals, including two completed and one work in progress, by artists Ji Yong Kim and Yukiko Izumi.
About the artists:
Ji Yong Kim is a Korean American visual artist and an arts educator from Sunset Park, Brooklyn.Over the years, Ji Yong has created over 10 murals and installations in New York City. The sites ranged from public schools, library, community centers and shelters for victims of domestic violence. Most recent mural includes “Chromatic Symphony of Greater Harlem” in Henry J. Carter Specialty Hospital, and “Color of Sound” in Murray Hill, Queens. Additionally, Ji Yong led volunteer painting sessions working with NY Cares and cooperate volunteers. “Embrace” (2017), “Our World Our Stage” (2017), and “On the Lotus Boat” (2018) are some examples of public collaboration.

Originally from Japan, she holds a B.A. and M.A. in Interior Design and Living Environment Study from Bunka Gakuen University, and an M.A. in Industrial Design from Designskolen Kolding in Denmark. Her passion for Japanese simplicity is deeply rooted in her upbringing and was further influenced by a year-long stay in the United States at the age of 12. This experience inspired her to explore Japanese design and foster a cultural bridge between Japan and the U.S. Through her visual art and design, Yukiko seeks to transcend language barriers and connect with diverse audiences.

1st & 3rd Floor
Open Studios featuring Con$umr, Deborah Simon, Peekaboo, Rebecca Miller, and Xingze Li.
About the artists:
Rebecca Miller - I am working on studies of tonal color in landscape. I will also be showing Rustic Loom textiles.
Peekaboo is a queer interdisciplinary artist who uses her body, nudity and sexuality to examine the world with hopes of inspiring compassion for the human experience. She has spent the last twenty years working as a full time burlesque performer and performance artist. Her work explores intimacy by subverting the expectations of the viewer and using her body as a tool to explore larger topics of gender, sexuality, sex work, and feminism with a little playful humor sprinkled in, all while holding space for the audience to process their own individual emotional responses. While most of her work consists of performances in the nightlife world, she is growing her practice into the visual arts and has been creating video art, paintings, and installations.
Con$umr is a self-taught artist from Brooklyn, New York. Without formal training he began making art in 2014 by using image transfers as his primary method. Shortly thereafter, he experimented with the process of stencil making. Mixed media and stencils are the primary means for exercising his vision. Inspired by pop and street art, his iconic piece, LoveSpray is a perfect blend between the two. His work has been shown in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Florida, Texas, California, Massachusetts, Arkansas, Canada, Germany, Ireland, Greece and the U.K. His collectors are from all over the world.
Xingze Li - Poised at the intersection of photography and sculpture, I create ethereal portraits of walls and interiors. My work lends weight to mostly unassuming blank walls and banal corners in domestic and semi-public spaces.
Deborah Simon - My art is a visual way of questioning our relationship with animals. The animals in my sculptures and paintings become inverted anatomies showing their interior organ structures painted and embroidered on the body’s surface or through translucent skin. The realistic animal, with its unblinking stare focused on the viewer, is juxtaposed with a fantastic interior, forcing us to reflect on and consider our relationship with animals and the cultural baggage we bring to them. The animal is no longer an odalisque for us to admire but a full participant in the conversation about our fractious relationship with them.

Open Studios featuring Jeffrey Kurland, John Jackson, Kate Stone, Jeremy Canfield, and Mollie Ruskin.
About the artists:
Jeffrey Kurland - Abstract paintings and painted collages; large and small scale artworks; on canvas or paper
John Jackson - I am a painter currently exploring a conceptual drawing and painting series based on images created through collaborating with A. I.
Kate Stone - I work across installation, sculpture and animation to imagine the ways in which our minds and bodies are reflected in the spaces we occupy with a specific focus on the cognitive dissonance that occurs when we consume the horrors of the external world from the (dis)comfort of our living room sofas. My animations combine stop-motion, collage and miniature sets to describe labyrinthine, distorted interiors. My sculptures employ carpet, found furniture and other household materials to imagine a process in which domestic space absorbs so much residue of life that it is animated into a living organism. Drawing inspiration from science, mythology, suburbia, human anatomy and horror tropes, I build worlds that exist between interior and exterior, reality and superstition, architecture and the body. They are psychological spaces in the midst of transformation, being overtaken by supernatural forces that represent the anxiety that world events bring into our personal lives and private spaces.
Jeremy Canfield - Experiments in watercolor and the built or discovered environment
Mollie Ruskin - Mixed media, mixed ideas, mixed visions. Illustration, painting and collage.

Our walls will be filled with the art of Al Díaz, best known for his friendship with Jean-Michel Basquiat and collaboration on SAMO©…, a well-known graffiti project appearing in lower Manhattan from 1978 to 1980. The tag and text slogans became known quickly on the streets and in the local newspaper media because of their wit and sardonic humor. Since Basquiat’s rise to fame, the SAMO©… legend has become a globally recognized graffito and has been celebrated as cutting social commentary throughout contemporary art history.
Artist: Al Diaz Curated by: SILVERTUNA STUDIOS + COLLECT WITH LULU

BioBAT Art Space
140 58th St.
Brooklyn Army Terminal, BLD A
Main Entrance Located on the Waterfront.
Vibrant Matter is a solo exhibition by Japanese bio-artist and researcher Yoko Shimizu that features a selection of the artist's work exploring the dynamism, agency, and expressive potential of living systems. Working with plant and microbial organisms as subject matter, material, and artistic collaborators, Shimizu's work probes and reveals the invisible intra-acting forces that animate processes of creation, adaptation, growth, and transformation in all organic matter. In both her scientific research and her artistic practice, Shimizu's work asks the question, how do we as humans shift our relationship with nature from one of domination and control to one of symbiosis and collaboration? She develops novel techniques and new materials, harnessing the infinite wisdom of nature and the tools of emerging technology, to push the boundaries of newly imagined non-human forms of communication.
BioBAT Art Space is a gallery dedicated to the intersection of Art, Science, and Technology, cultivating relationships between artists, the community, and future generations of innovators. The art space is housed in the ground floor lobby of a nonprofit bio incubator, BioBAT Inc., located in the historic Brooklyn Army Terminal in Sunset Park.

October 16th, 1-3pm
Floating Verses: Community Music Box Workshop
Free Workshops: 1-1:45pm & 2-2:45pm at Art Cake
The International Contemporary Ensemble is an artist collective that is transforming the way music is created and experienced. The Ensemble’s 36 members are featured as soloists, chamber musicians, commissioners, and collaborators with the foremost musical artists of our time. Works by emerging composers have anchored the Ensemble’s programming since its founding, and the group’s recordings highlight the many voices that weave music’s present.
About the Workshop:
Phyllis continues Floating Verses, a global community music-art piece that invites participants to create their own music box strip. Participants design, draw and punch out their own tunes on music box punch tape. Eventually, these strips are connected together in a quilt-like fashion, adding to the fabric of sound collected from other participants in previous workshops.
The sounds you hear during the workshop are strips from the following places/workshops:
University of Ioannina (Greece)
Far North Festival (Illulisat, Greenland)
Morris Museum (Morristown, NJ)
Philly Magic Garden (Philadelphia, PA)
Ben Franklin Institute (Philadelphia, PA)
SUNY New Paltz, NY
Abrons Arts Center (NYC)
Described by The New York Times as “spellbinding” and “delightfully quirky matched with interpretive sensitivity,” Phyllis (2022 Guggenheim Fellow, 2019 Cage-Cunningham Fellow) is a composer, pianist and sound artist whose music draws from her tactile exploration of object and sound. She has performed her music at Lincoln Center, Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, Abrons Arts Center, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, Los Angeles County Museum, Baryshnikov Arts Center and numerous other places.
