You're Invited To Graduate Hotel Sweet Dreams Society Artists Showcase Celebration At Roosevelt Island Panorama Room Wednesday October 26 - Applications Open For New 2023 Artist Residency Program
Last September 9, the Graduate Hotel invited the Roosevelt Island community to celebrate:
... the end-of-residency of our Sweet Dreams Society artist, Geneva Bernal. Geneva has created two sculptures that will be placed in our lobby and viewable for all of the Islanders and public to see....
... About - Pulling from Roosevelt Island’s fluid history and local fauna, Sanctuary explores the gradual development of finding home in a new place and what it means to each of us. Hosted in the lobby, this viewing party will feature Geneva's latest sculptures....
was inspired by the natural environment surrounding Roosevelt Island, particularly our Canadian Geese and Goslings,
to explore the concept of what Sanctuary means to different people.
Ms Bernal spoke to me about her Roosevelt Island Graduate Hotel
Sweet Dreams Society Artist Residency
and her
Geese sculptures.
Graduate Roosevelt Island is having one more celebration for all of our Sweet Dreams Society artist this October and we’re excited to share the announcement!
