In/Between 2024: Cosmic Domestic
Statement from curators Martita Abril, Zahra Banyamerian and Yanira Castro.
In selecting and bringing this work together from New York Foundation for the Arts’ 2024 immigrant artist cohort—we are considering our own visceral response to the urgent needs of people seeking asylum in New York City. What is sanctuary? Many of the works in Cosmic Domestic embed home in outer space, in our bodies, in temporary shelters, in dreams and vessels, in a crib and the MTA. These twenty artists, working in a variety of mediums, evoke the power of birth, family, and the courageous act of inhabiting.
This year’s exhibit features works by the following artists: Melika Abikenari, Andrés Altamirano, Min Baek, Lana Bolycheva, Gabriela Bornstein, Doreen Chan, Nelise Nasheida Charles, Ruoyun Chen, Rocío Delaloye, Lafina Eptaminitaki, Tea (Tika) Gzirishvili, Lee Jensen, Doi Kim, Jisook Kim, Azadeh Nia, Mari Nagem, Eiko Nishida, Johan Orellana, Hadeel Saalok, and Vera Saldivar de Lira.More info on the event can be found here.
