The Brooklyn Navy Yard

Guests will be guided through the Brooklyn Navy Yard by Carli Beseau, Executive Director, Exhibits & Programs, as they visit the studios of Nancy Bowen, Beth Campbell, SITU, Colin Thomson, and Lindsay Walt.

Nancy Bowen

Bowen is a mixed media artist known for her eclectic mixtures of imagery and materials in both two and three dimensions. Her sculpture and drawing exists in an in-between zone of form and idea, of abstraction and representation. Her work offers a poetic commentary on our quickly changing material culture. Like an artistic archeologist in this age of globalization and post-industrialization, she salvages (often disappearing) ornament and craft traditions and incorporates them into sculpture and drawings.

Beth Campbell

Known for her drawings, sculpture, and architectural interventions, Campbell creates works that challenge the notion of a physical world beyond our perception. Drawing upon philosophy, phenomenology and psychology, Campbell choreographs spaces, crafts uncanny objects, and maps thought.

SITU

SITU is a multi-disciplinary architecture studio with a focus on designing unconventional spaces to maximize creative and social impact. Their projects are incredibly unique, adaptative, and driven by research that is not tethered to any stylistic of formal limitations. Their clients include academic institutions to museums to high-end commercial spaces.

Lindsay Walt

Walt's starting point for her inspiration is the perceptual shift of color and light found in natural phenomena. Often, the abstract compositions in the Walt's paintings reference landscape and seascape, particularly the amorphous border where the two merge. Other works allude to a state of weightlessness free from the constraints of gravity.

Colin Thomson

Thomson's painting ideas develop through drawings and watercolors. His sources include Islamic tiles, graphic design, African textiles, architectural plans, maps, cartoons, and the landscape.Â
