IAM is the inverted experience of the self as reflected through the eyes of local and international artists to showcase the various facades of New York City.

Our rooms can be described as physical surrealism, showing off the unanticipated and often illogical juxtapositions of the city’s identity.

💎 OUR MISSION

IAM recognizes that each unique piece of art acts as an entryway to the artist’s cultural, political, and social-economical circumstances. Culture and art are created by ordinary people, and their collective experiences shape the perception of the world around them.

Each room acts as a different urban landscape unfolding the various personalities of New York City. From the gritty to the luxurious, the unexpected nature of the inverted rooms can be described as physical surrealism, showing off the unanticipated and often illogical juxtapositions of the city’s identity.

🎨 ARTISTS

This space will be created by local and international artists who express the influence of New York City on their perception of the world in an inverted format. New York City’s art scene is multifaceted, a melting pot of artistic expression that transcends any physical bounds

Along with personal expression, contemporary art allows the artist to make a commentary on the culture around them. This can include literally or figuratively depicting their views, ranging from politics to pop culture. With imagery, shapes, and other varied mediums, the artist can create a dialogue or narrative of their creations. When one engages with the piece, they engage with the artist’s dialogue.

As this style of art comments on the current sociopolitical and cultural climate, it also becomes a visual historical record of life. 'IAM' is an authentic record that contains not only facts such as important dates and names but, the feelings that were held by people at the time. There is a reason that art is so often carefully preserved, it gives a unique lens to the past that cannot just be read about in history books.
