Artist Residency at a Midtown office

We designed an Artist Residency for one of our favorite corporate clients. Over the course of a week, mixed-media artist Xochi Solis created six unique works inspired by the global cities where the firm has offices, including: Hong Kong, Boston, Kansas City, Hyderabad, London, and New York. She set up her studio in one of the common spaces at the firm, where employees could stop in and converse with her and see the works come together over time.

Each work is a construction of sorts, sometimes beginning with paint, sometimes with cut paper, but with each work there is always paint involved. I still think of my works primarily as paintings, but there is an inherent sculptural quality to them as materials continually build upon one another.
