Episode #322: The Spark in the Room with Lucy Rovetto

from Nat's Sidewalk Stories · host Nathalie Kalbach

Lucy Rovetto is a Jersey City-based painter, printmaker, and curator whose work asks hard questions about power, fear, and the structures we don't let ourselves question. Raised in Greenville, she spent years traveling and working internationally before returning to Jersey City, where she won a city artist live/workspace lottery and never looked back. She's curated exhibitions at JCTCI and the Museum of Jersey City History, and her studio is open by appointment. Shownotes at natkalbach.com/podcast

Lucy Rovetto has spent her life making art that makes you stop — and that's exactly what she asks for. In this conversation, Lucy and Nat talk about growing up in Greenville, working as an assistant to a sculptor in South Africa, nearly walking away from art entirely, and then winning a lottery for an artist live/workspace. They also get into what it means to curate — not just artworks, but the spark between them.
