Some glimpses from yesterday’s opening for the Chester County Studio Tour at Warwick Furnace Farm. The tour continues today from 11–5 PM and is the final day to visit.

Come explore the artist studios, wander the farm store, enjoy a slice of cake (not to be missed), and speak with our artists in residence about the projects unfolding on the farm.

On view in the main gallery is The Sweet Table the beginning of an artistic collaboration between mother and daughter, and . The series captures Dolly’s elaborate confections — artworks in their own right —  through Claire’s photographic lens, drawing upon the visual language of Dutch still life painting. Like the paintings that inspire them, the images move beyond beauty to explore appetite, inspiration, and the ways we nourish one another.

At its surface, the work delights in abundance and artistry: plentiful cakes, elaborate chocolate baskets, colorful jellies, and luminous tablescapes painstakingly arranged. Yet beneath the seduction of the images, the series examines nourishment — both literal and metaphysical — of motherhood and artistic inheritance.

We welcome you to the farm for the final day of the tour.

I’m so pleased to share my larger-than-life Birds of a Feather book, now installed at Festival 2026.

I have been dreaming of creating a book at this scale for years, and I’m deeply grateful to Laura, Sam, Dave, and the entire team for helping bring this vision into reality.

It feels especially meaningful as the birds were first exhibited on the Photoville fence in 2013, an early experience that gave me the confidence and visibility to develop this project.

This spring marks 15 years of visual storytelling with a 85+ public art exhibitions in all 5 boroughs of NYC, walking tours, panels, workshops, and IRL & online public programming throughout May!

At last, the pleasure of meeting in person after many exchanges by email. She so generously contributed the introductory essay for Birds of a Feather, offering a richly considered reflection on the place of birds in ornamentation across history.

Femke situates the work by drawing connections to William Morris, the 19th-century British designer, and George Edwards, the 18th-century naturalist, who wrote: “art and nature, like two sisters, should always walk hand in hand, so they may reciprocally aid and assist each other.” Speelberg notes that Rosen reverses traditional depictions of the natural world: “In confronting nature with artifice by capturing exotic birds in ornate interiors not unlike those found in the times of both Edwards and Morris, she invites the viewer to think about questions of displacement and belonging.”

Femke is the curator of Historic Ornament, Design, and Architecture 
in the Department of Drawings and Prints at the Metropolitan Museum of Art
