Robert Nava (b. 1985, East Chicago, IN) received a BFA in Fine Art from Indiana University as well as an MFA in Painting from Yale University. His practice centers on large-scale paintings and works on paper that portray whimsical creatures, rendered through gestural markings. Finding inspiration in the art of the distant past, from Medieval Christian imagery to Mayan and Sumerian art, as well as popular contemporary sources such as animation, Nava creates compositions that are carefully considered yet marked by a sense of naivete and spontaneity. His art has been exhibited in various solo exhibitions both domestically and abroad. Robert Nava is a recipient of the 2022 Inga Maren Otto Fellowship at The Watermill Center.
Cali Faulkner attended culinary school in NYC and began her career in the kitchens of Eleven Madison Park and The Modern. She moved to France, first to Provence, and then to Paris where she worked at Restaurant Verjus. It was there she learned to value and highlight quality and simplicity in her cooking. Upon her return to the States, she spent time at Crown Shy and Oxalis. In 2021 she moved to Amagansett to get a bit of sun and embark on Third Falcon, her first independent culinary venture. Third Falcon is a celebration of Cali’s personality, experiences, and tastes on the tables of the East end.
