Ambrosia curated by Now + There
The Prudential Center in Boston, MA
March 15, 2021-August 1, 2021
Commissioned by Boston Properties and curated by Now + There for the Prudential Center, Cicely Carew’s Ambrosia brought joy to one of Boston's most beloved public spaces. Cambridge-based artist Cicely Carew brought her exuberant, mixed-media abstractions out from the canvas and fully into the third dimension with a larger-than-life installation. A large-scale, site-specific, color-therapeutic ecosystem of remixed everyday materials, “Ambrosia” was a much-needed sanctuary of collective joy for all passing through Prudential Center from March-August, 2021. -www.nowandthere.org

From N+T On March 25 at 12pm, we marked the opening of Cambridge, MA-based artist Cicely Carew's "Ambrosia," which for the first time brought her ethereal, mixed-media painted abstractions fully into the third dimension, infusing Boston's iconic Prudential Center with a renewed sense of joy. Asserting with bold color, light, and materiality that abundance is — and should be — for everybody, "Ambrosia" reminds all passing through Prudential Center to stop, look up, and embrace the moments of wonder, beauty, and connection, even in our everyday spaces.
