Goodbye to Crane Street

With much sadness I have to say goodbye to my old studio at Crane Street. Back in April there was a terrible accident when the stairs (pictured in one of my older posts) collapsed with a fellow artist falling from the forth floor. Miraculously, she survived and I send my very best wishes to her and her family. The building was closed and although it may reopen, I can no longer afford to wait for that to happen. I will be relocating to the Juvenal Reis Studios at the beginning of August. I am sad to say goodbye to Crane Street as it was such fun for a while and I made some lovely friends there. However, I am excited about my new studio and look forward to meeting more wonderful artists in that building. Follow @EleanorRahim

“As a Feng Shui consultant and integrative designer, I look for specific representation and metaphor in artwork. The first time I saw a piece of Eleanor’s work, [Fluid State] I was struck first by its movement, which can be very effective in energizing a particular area of one’s life or business if it is placed prescriptively. The other aspect which I found potent, is her use of color. Color interprets the ‘five elements’ or what is referred to as ‘agents of change’ in feng shui. 'Fluid State' is primarily whites and blues - the metal and water elements. Metal represents virtue, communication, joy and creativity. Water is associated with wisdom, one’s path in life and finances. I immediately thought I love this piece and what a powerful adjustment it would make for my client.”
