About the Artist:
Ksenia Korniewska is a self-taught multidisciplinary artist from Kyiv, Ukraine, who arrived in St. John’s in May 2022 and immediately fell in love with the ocean. Drawing inspiration from 14th century Sienese iconography, 17th century anatomical illustrations, natural phenomena and metaphysical poetry, she creates alien hieratic paintings, spectral photography and liminal video art.
Events & Programs
Reimagining the classic bedtime story, Matthew-Robin Nye explores how spaces of imagination can transcend categories like child and adult, inviting reflection on how we learn, feel, and connect to artwork across generations.
Through this work, he asks what it means to build environments that are open, attentive, and alive to shared experience—places where visitors can simply be, and where curiosity and presence unfold at their own rhythm.
This is a free program but a ticket is required. Please reserve your free ticket online or call 709-757-8090.
