In Good Company
Felicity House
Felicity House is a New York-based non-clinical program for women with autism. Serving as a meeting place, their house has been designed to address the unique needs of women with autism. Keeping in line with Felicity House's soothing, quiet, and welcoming interiors, Uprise artist Christina Watka's porcelain installation guides visitors up the stairs with deep warm and cool reds. A large-scale painting from artist Ky Anderson addresses pressures, both internal and external, in the first floor meeting area. Works by Rebeca Raney, Erin Lynn Welsh, and Diana Delgado complete the top floor of the townhouse.
Using a very basic material that comes from the earth, sculpted into a shape that comes from the body, I draw up undulating compositions that discuss fluidity, movement, lightness, and air. The metallic leaf catches the light and playfully bounces it around the work, inviting the viewer to pause.
