Sari recounts her takeaways from Jenny Odell's 2019 book, How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy and how the book's recommendations can be helpful to artists feeling overwhelmed by media and our hunger for constant information dopamine.

There is one spot remaining for my 2025 artist retreat/residency! Camp Spark features a week-long painting retreat, where you'll immerse yourself in the nostalgic magic of summer camp, reimagined as a creative residency in the Catskills. Grow your art practice via virtual programming, the week-long retreat in upstate New York and a capstone virtual exhibition to include on your CV.
