I first became aware of Bazanova's work in 2012 and, soon after, met this integral fixture of the thriving Brooklyn (Bushwick) art scene. In addition to making and actively exhibiting her on work Bazanova is a great supporter of New York's art scene, curating recent exhibitions as After Life at Linden Hill Cemetery as part of 2018's Bushwick Open Studios and Ceramos 2 a group exhibition mounted this year at Space 776 .
