Now on view at Town Hall the exhibition Cortlandt Artists Choose Artists explores the influence of an artist’s network on their studio practice. Art therapist, Tara Pasciucco, and Kalpna Hamilton, microbiologist and artist, draw inspiration from the other’s works and encourage the other’s growth in their studio practice.

“Collaborating with Kalpna inspires and encourages me to challenge myself. Her supportive and nurturing spirit, along with her abilities as an artist, push me to explore new ways to express myself and grow as a person. Her art can be freeform and explorative or formal and traditional. Kalpna has a unique style which continuously demonstrates her strong sense of color... always inviting and mesmerizing.” – Tara Pasciucco

“I like collaboration with Tara as she is very creative and I admire her style and vivid form of imagination with a twist almost touching the realms of surrealist worlds; nudging the viewer to expand the realms perception! She so successfully brings it to life on the canvas with masterful vivid imagery and confident strokes.” – Kalpna Hamilton

Cortlandt Artists Choose Artists runs through August 1, 2024. To inquire about this or other exhibition opportunities, please email Eren Johnson at art@townofcortlandt.com.
