For Red Hook Open Studios 2022, on our ship Mary A. Whalen, Jason Rosenberg will show a selection of indigo-dyed batik paintings which he made on Skomvær, an isolated island at the edge of the Lofoten Islands in Northern Norway/Sapmi, where he has spent his summers co-running an artist residency and developing his own artistic practice since 2013. The geographical remoteness of this Arctic island, as well as it’s seabird inhabitants, unique geological landscape, tidal current, and unbridled seaweed forests have nourished the artist’s artistic vision and led him to explore his own spiritual relation to the sea and its ecology. He will be here to discuss his work.

Note, this art installation is open both RHOS days, Saturday and Sunday, from 12-5pm, followed by a concert on Sunday.
