2025 New City Arts Fellowship Exhibition
The 2025 New City Arts Fellowship invited a select group of artists to make work responding to the annual theme, through this, to that, written by Fellowship Guest Curator, Eboni Bugg (read the full theme below). Following an open call and competitive application process, this year’s Artist Fellows were selected by a community panel. Inspired by water’s movement and transformation, these four artists considered their own movement “through this, to that” (as written by Lucille Clifton in her poem “blessing the boats”). During month-long Fellowships that included a studio space grant—located at Visible Records—and a stipend, Fellowship artists engaged with this theme through photography, interactive sculpture, installation, and assemblage touching upon themes of grief, joy, perpetual transformation, generative destruction, and displacement.
