I must admit, I didn’t do what I had proposed in my application, and it was the best decision I made. I had written that I would work on some of my video projects, which the residency time away from New York could have provided. But even before I left for Venice, I realized I needed to do some things that situated me specifically in the place—the uniqueness of Venice—rather than working on video footage that has nothing particular to do with this magical place that I could easily work on back in NYC. And so I began to envision how better to take advantage of being in Venice during that month.

ONX Studio distinguishes itself as a hybrid space where work is both created and presented. It functions as an accelerator, a subsidized production studio and workspace, and an exhibition gallery located in the Onassis Gallery of Olympic Tower in Midtown Manhattan. Each year the studio space will transform into an extended reality gallery for a month-long showcase featuring ONX artists. The first showcase is planned for later in 2021.
