Whispers at Dusk is a forty foot long glass mural now adorning the walls of NYU Langone’s new hospital complex in Garden City, NY. Commissioned by the NYU Langone Art Program and Collection and fabricated in collaboration with Glasmalerie Peters Studios in Germany.
Whispers at Dusk spans eight non-reflective glass panels that are printed with multiple layers of digital UV print combined with glass etching done by hand to reflect the brushstrokes and textures of the original painting. Whispers at Dusk seeks to capture the evanescent quality of grey, purple, and pink forms that appear like mysterious drawings in the sky at twilight.

Solo Exhibition : Margaret Garrett - The 19
Planthouse Gallery, New York, NY Sept 10 - Oct 18, 2020
19 was a multi-disciplinary exhibition of works by Margaret Garrett in celebration of the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment. The show included video and painted collages inspired by 19 poses chosen from Martha Graham dances by the Graham company to honor the centennial of women’s right to vote. It also featured a suite of woodblock and chine colle prints, 19 Poses, made at Flatbed Press in Austin, Texas and published by Planthouse Gallery and now in the collection of the Blanton Museum of Art, in Austin.
"As a longtime admirer of Martha Graham, I was immediately captivated by the idea of working with these poses to make work in celebration of the 19th amendment. In creating these pieces, I felt like I was working with a very potent alphabet, an intimate language about dance, women and power. "- Margaret Garrett
