This month, The Sprint Flatiron Prow Art Space, also known as the museum without walls, introduces the timely installation Flakes. Artist Chelsea Hrynick Browne equates her small, hand-cut Origami paper cutouts to fellow New Yorkers – each one of the small works unique, elusive, quirky, beautiful. “We are all flakes!”

Her colorful creations are inspired by math, philosophy, technology and nature, and her work can be found nationally. You might recognize her style in local pieces that are in permanent collections, such as NYU Hassenfeld Hospital. She has been in many exhibits including Twelvetide, Neighborhood Church of Greenwich Village, Bushwick Open Studios, Artists and Fleas, Grand Central Public Library Exhibition, and on and on. Hailing from Madison, Wisconsin, Ms. Hrynick Browne lives in the East Village.
