The Art Reserve @ Fraiche
A Mulit-Sensory Art Experience curated by Aritst-in-Residence Simone Agoussoye
“Presenting these pieces in a social dining context allows the art to live in conversation,
with the room, the culture, and the people experiencing it.”
— Simone Agoussoye

The Art Reserve at Fraîche presents a curated selection of new contemporary portrait works by celebrated artist Simone Agoussoye, serving as Fraîche’s inaugural Artist in Residence. Known for her innovative approach to modern portraiture and textured surfaces, Agoussoye continues to push the boundaries of representation, beauty, and identity within today’s cultural landscape.
As part of her residency, Agoussoye welcomes special guest artist Dunnie O, showcasing a striking collection of her expressive abstract works. Dunnie’s dynamic palettes and intuitive compositions offer a vivid counterbalance to Agoussoye’s portraiture, enriching the visual dialogue of the exhibition.
Together, their contrasting styles create a multidimensional experience that bridges portraiture, abstraction, and contemporary artistic expression, giving guests a deeper look into the diversity of DC’s creative scene.
