Rockwell Ambassador members are invited to celebrate the Museum’s most recent Antigravity installation, featuring artist Elaine K. Ng, and enjoy refreshments while visiting with this inspiring artist.
Elaine K. Ng is an artist whose work explores the physical and psychological structures of site. Her practice includes material investigations and explorations of pattern, as well as writing and research to examine the various aspects that contribute to our collective knowledge of place. Ng will create a site-specific installation in The Rockwell’s rotunda entryway as a response to the architecture of the historic building. This annual commission is coupled with a week-long guest appearance in the Corning Museum of Glass Amphitheater Hot Shop where she’ll work collaboratively with the gaffers to realize her designs in glass.
