Wow...2019. I'm a bit speechless. Looking back at this past year and I'm so greatful for all the incredible projects and oppurtinites that came my way and a few highlights I have to mention: I kicked off the year with a collaboration with The New York City Ballet, won a Shorty Award for best in Art, created a space for Contemplation and Poetry on Govenors Island, took over the screens at the Oculus/WTC, opened the stage for AdobeMax, created live visuals for Lizzo, performanced my one woman show at Sotherbys, created a year long installation at Denver Art Museum, teamed up with @hbo down in Miami, created a wonderful solo show at @dbsgallery and last but certainly not least, I collaborated with Karlie Kloss for @KodeWithKlossy on a limited edition hoodie! Also hired my first full time assistant, so the team is growing slowly. 🎉 2020, I'm looking forward to YOU! #AreYouYou #TheMayRoom #ShantellxDAM #shantellontheroad (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6v2204ghWx/?igshid=1l56wjewogbdz
Artist @shantell_martin is known for taking over spaces, using her work as “a meditation of lines; a language of characters, creatures & messages that invites viewers to share a role in the creative progress”... . This is from her project at @governorsisland... . And you’ll find works of hers and a possible “takeover” at Band of Vices the beginning of 2020... . For a list of available works, send an email to [email protected]... . #Repost @shantell_martin ・・・ Felt it was important especially nowadays to create a peaceful Space for Poetry and Contemplation. It’s been a lot of work but also a lot of fun brining this church back to life since being abandoned for over 20 years and suffering damage from Sandy. Love seeing all your photos of the #TheMayRoom like this one from @gigi_gaoyang and partnering with @ThePoetrySociety for meaningful readings in the space. Also happy to see that the children have taken to the space too! 📷 @gigi_gaoyang #AreYouYou 📍 @governorsisland https://www.instagram.com/p/B4GI29wF5lC/?igshid=1tmrcr4p51avv
