Beach64retreat
I was fortunate enough to receive a sponsored residency at Beach64retreat in December 2019. During this four-day period, I worked in solitude to make progress on writing, painting, photography, video, and curatorial projects.
From the residency website:
"Beach64retreat in the Rockaways, Queens, New York was founded in 2017 with the aim to support on a micro level the creation of contemporary arts & culture and promote global cultural exchanges in times when it is more and more difficult for creative individuals around the globe to thrive. Beach64retreat offers a completely free of charge independent one-bedroom apartment (kitchen/living and separate bedroom) with wi-fi connection in a private home on Beach 64th Street, in Arverne in the Rockaways, Queens, New York."
