Lesley Goldwasser in Conversation with Artists Dahlia Dreszer and Ray Tenorio.
Join us for an inspiring evening at The Betsy Hotel, as owner and curator Lesley Goldwasser welcomes acclaimed artists Dahlia Dreszer and Ray Tenorio for an intimate conversation in the Hohauser Wing galleries. This special event offers guests a unique opportunity to hear firsthand about the creative journeys, influences, and artistic practices of two dynamic voices in contemporary art.
About the Artists: Dahlia Dreszer (Panama) is a photo-based artist living and working in Miami, Florida. A graduate of Emory University, Dahlia explores identity, memory, and cultural heritage through large-format photography and immersive installations that blur the boundaries between reality and artifice. Rooted in her Latin American and Jewish heritage, her work weaves personal narratives with broader cultural histories, often using still-life arrangements. Her recent projects include "Bringing the Outside In," and explorations at the intersection of technology, art, and nature most notably through her AI-generated alter ego, Clone Dahlia, featured in TIME magazine. Dahlia also curates public dialogues centering on collaboration, technology, and cross-cultural exchange.
Ray Tenorio Viera was born in Havana, Cuba, and is now based in Miami. With a background in Social Communication from the Universidad de La Habana, and further studies in Graphic and Commercial Arts at Miami Dade College and Illustration Design in Berlin, Ray draws inspiration from Surrealism, Expressionism, mythology, and Latin American and African folklore. His vivid, emotional artworks crafted with bold colors, confident lines, and rhythmic forms invite viewers into a world of psychedelic dreams and hidden narratives. Each piece emerges intuitively, encouraging a soul-deep dialogue between artwork and audience. Surrounded by The Betsy's renowned collection, guests will explore the intersection of art, community, and cultural storytelling. The evening includes time for audience Q&A, light refreshments, and the chance to connect with fellow art lovers in one of South Beach's most iconic settings. RSVP: Recommended, as space is limited.
