Jodi Moise, Director of The Fine Art Program and Collection at Montefiore Einstein, worked closely with Studio to curate this special exhibition. Moise spoke to art’s role in healing, sharing, “Art is a medium that allows for anyone to express themselves. Through creativity and imagination, it is evident that these are gifted students, and their work has helped to humanize the patient experience. As the connection between imaginative works of art and healing becomes more recognized, our understanding of art’s restorative power will continue to grow.”
Studios in The Bronx 2022 was honored to host Council Women Marjorie Velázquez at the exhibition on Thursday, January 6th.
