Serena Kovalosky’s art is rooted in the organic form and natural materials with an ecological ethos that explores how the natural world can inform our comprehension of the interrelatedness of all things, providing balance and grounding in an era of global change while stimulating an environmental reverence.
Kovalosky was awarded a $10,000 New York State Rural & Traditional Arts Fellowship in 2023 for The White Mulberry Project/A River Runs Through It. The interdisciplinary project and exhibition is part of The Eco-Garden Project, a socially engaged practice which offers a reconnection with “nature in our backyard” at the intersection of art, science and history interpreted through sculpture, wildcrafting, storytelling and the culinary arts. The roots of the project began in 2003 with The Seed that Grows, a labyrinth installation/Three Sisters planting project in Montreal and upstate New York.
Serena Kovalosky is the co-founder of the Open Studios of Washington County Biennial and the Creative Warriors artist co-mentoring group. She curated the Slate as Muse National Art Exhibition at the Slate Valley Museum. As the founder and creative force behind Artful Vagabond Productions, Kovalosky explores the artist’s role in contemporary society through artist interviews, film and excerpts from her own artist’s journal.
Kovalosky’s work and projects have been featured in Adirondack Life, Proctor’s The Collaborative, Artscope and Professional Artist. She has appeared on Joe Donahue’s Roundable, CBC Radio-Canada, Canada’s Life Channel, Quebec’s Canal Vie and the BBC.
