Please join the artists of Cornerstone Studios for an artist talk by Cornerstone’s 2023-24 #Studio178 artist-in-residence, Wildriana Paulino. Saturday, March 23, 3-4pm, in the sanctuary of Our Saviour’s Atonement Lutheran Church. Address is 178 Bennett Avenue, New York, NY 10040.

Born in the Dominican Republic, Wildriana María de Jesús Paulino is an interdisciplinary artist and educator. She received her BFA in Fine Arts from The Cooper Union School of Art. Wildriana has exhibited her work in various venues, including the Bronx River Art Center, and Abrazo Interno Gallery at the Clemente Soto Veléz Cultural Center. In 2022, she participated in the NY Latin American Art Triennial and exhibited “Maternity Figure,” a life-size installation resulting from her research on femicide—the normalized killing of women for being women. A 2022 recipient of the Jacques and Natasha Gelman Foundation Prize, Wildriana’s collaborations include Women’s Strike NYC and The Audubon Society.

Studio178 is a 12-month artist’s residency for immigrant, late career, recent MFA graduates and/or artists in financial need. Studio178 is jointly sponsored by Cornerstone Studios and Our Saviour’s Atonement Lutheran Church. More information at www.cornerstone studios.nyc and www.osanyc.org.
