Artists’ Table @ The Watermill Center

Artists’ Table is The Watermill Center’s year-round series of gatherings, inviting the public to an intimate presentation by Artist-in-Residence Joyce Ho, followed by a farm-to-table meal by Chef Colin Ambrose on The Center’s scenic campus. Joyce Ho works across diverse mediums from painting, video, to installation. By integrating the deconstruction of movements and fragmentation of daily rituals with rich and illusory light and shadow, the artist demonstrates the intimate and isolating tensions between people and reality. The artist’s works simultaneously captivate her viewers while keeping them in a state of confrontation, rendering the quotidian action depicted in her work as a momentary ritual.

Colin Ambrose is the Executive Chef of Estia’s Little Kitchen in Sag Harbor, New York. Colin has a 30+ year career as a restaurateur on the East End, best known for founding the original Estia in Amagansett. Ambrose was one of the original founders on the East End of the slow food movement and grows many of his vegetables and herbs for his restaurants. Chef Ambrose is also the host-producer for The American Rivers Tour, where he looks to fellow chefs and locations – exploring new twists on American and Mexican fare along the way.
