Old tree
A bright red and pink sculpture by Pamela Rosenkranz juts out between all the high rises at Hudson Yards. This tree of life connects heaven and earth and its color represents the human blood, its branches the system of human organs. I know it’s quite a bit to take in, but the artist wants to…

Anime convention
Anime NYC is happening this weekend! A three day event that unites fans from all over for unique exhibitions and exclusive screenings. You probably ask yourself how do I know this? It was easy to put one and one together when I started seeing people walking around the city dressed up as anime characters. It’s…

The big reveal
Curious to see my creation from the paint and sip event last night? Well, let me tell you: a new artist is born! Just joking, but for my first attempt, I think it turned out quite cool. Luckily, art is subjective and, in this case, very abstract… I really had an great time, met some…

Paint and sip
I thought it’s time to try something new! So I signed up for a painting class 🎨 The idea is to get creative whilst enjoying a glass of wine and munch a slice of pizza (can it get even more ‘New York’!?) Super curious to see what the evening will bring but so far, the…

This week is flying by! Tackling jet lag and the after-vacation-work-craziness, I just realised that tomorrow is already Friday. Meaning the weekend is close- thankfully 😅 Getting used to the big city life again, I wanted to share another of these charming sidewalk graffiti’s from GOAT (check out my first post about the artist here…

Here we go again
Another city, another restart. Besides sorting out the obvious like signing a lease, finding your bearings and figuring out where to do your grocery shopping, a big part is also finding your new network of service providers and – more importantly- doctors. I was lucky to get a recommendation for a dentist and was surprised…

My new logo
It’s done! My new logo is ready and I hope you’ll love it as much as I do! I worked with the same young artist and kept the general design of my Josephine in San Francisco one but made it more New York-style. Check out the different elements – all things I attribute to this…

Time is ticking
The Union Square Metronom is a public art installation by Kristin Jones and Andrew Ginzel. It has multiple fascinating elements (a brick wall, gold leaf fragments, an enlarged bronze hand, a massive piece of bedrock to name a few) symbolising different things. If you’re intrigued, you can learn more here. The Metronome’s digital clock has…

Golden figures
Those sculptures would have given me the scares if I would have come across them at night and I wonder if they occasionally get mistaken for intruders at nighttime… But nothing to fear! They are gold dancers and adorn Bond Street #24. Considering the building’s long legacy as an arts space, they fit right in…
