WHY
with/for/and about the neighborhood
We are passionate about a hyper local artistic practice and have spent the past years deepening our commitment to the ecosystem of our Queens neighborhoods. As individuals, we have created work around the world. As neighbors, we bring that expertise to the World’s Borough.
We center mutual aid, placemaking, and creating artwork around which the community can gather.
taking what was inside, outside
We are pursuing our interest in taking our design skills outside of the performance or architectural space and into the public realm.There is an untapped beauty in the unexpected collisions and interactions inherent in publicly situated work.
Community work energizes our design practice. It invites us to open our process, be patient, to question pretension, and increase our adaptability.
we thrive on collaboration
Our services are varied, but all require human connection and investment in process. We are skilled in community-centered art making, environmental design, public space activation, design project management, sculpture and installation design services. Public engagement, rigor, and delight are central to our work.
From the stage to the park, we view art & design as connective tissue.
