What Artists are Saying

About the Art & Opening Event

“Your exhibition was a moment of total art. It touched me directly in the gut, bypassing both the brain and the heart. I felt strong emotions of grounding, human strength, and at the same time, universality. The music, the dance, and certain paintings were perfectly in harmony.

It was a very powerful moment. And I liked the way the dancer came to us, dropped the masks, made us uncomfortable so that we could find ourselves like her, almost naked facing the world, all connected by our simple and modest condition of being alive and in the moment.

The music was powerful, and it too was devoid of artifice, streamlined but straight to the point, making us feel our condition without the attributes behind which we often hide.
Thank you very much and Congratulations to you for your art work and the performance.”

— Valerie Locatelli, artist Rouge Cloitre, Brussels Belgium
