Clocks, Dreams, and Smiley Faces: My New York City Art Takeover Begins November 13"

Updated: 5 days ago

This November, I'm beyond excited to share that I will be having my first New York solo exhibition: Time to Be Smiley, opening November 13, 2025, at Time To Be Happy Gallery in New York.

Official Invitation for It's Time to be Smiley

As I prepared for the exhibition, I reflected on the role of community, time and connection. Art has the power to bring individuals together, sparking conversations and creating shared moments.


I want to encourage you to think about your own relationship with time and happiness. Time is the one thing we all share, regardless of background, culture, or bank account. We all get the same 24 hours. The question is: what are we doing with them?


This November, I'm spending mine making art, taking risks, and hopefully making some people smile.


It's time to be smiley. Will you join me?
