About the Program

As our clients grow their art collections, we connect them with artists, introducing artwork early in the design process. Our unique Artist in Residence Program facilitates this goal. The program consists of a twelve-month-long “stay” for one artist. During this time, we display their work in the House of Taste, stamped with the approval of our high-caliber standards. Their pieces become an integral part of client presentations, work sessions, and Taste events. The opportunity to collaborate on commissioned pieces is often a fulfilling one for both artist and patron. We develop the year-long program specifically to the unique work and process of each artist.

2026-27 Artist in Residence

Amy Genser

Amy Genser is a Connecticut-based mixed-media artist whose work is recognized for its richly layered, dimensional surfaces created from thousands of hand-rolled paper elements.

Working with paper as both material and pigment, Genser builds tactile, sculptural compositions that reference natural systems—waterways, cellular growth, erosion patterns, and shifting landscapes—inviting viewers to experience the relationship between microscopic detail and expansive, environmental form.
