Wave Hill, West 249th Street and Independence Avenue, will unveil a new exhibition by New York artist Janelle Iglesias, in the Sunroom Project Space, on Saturday, June 6.

For her project, the artist has mimicked the nesting strategies of the bowerbird to create an immense, intricately adorned sculptural environment.

The bowerbird, an avian “installation artist,” is known for its obsessive scavenging of debris to decorate into elaborately designed habitats, or bowers. Accordingly, the artist collected natural and discarded materials, from the grounds of Wave Hill as well as its immediate vicinity, and has assembled them to create her own bower in the Sunroom space.

Ms. Iglesias will discuss her project during a special Meet the Artist program on Sunday, June 7, at 1 p.m.

This installation will be on view through Sunday, July 19.
