Art Book Launch More In Than Out – THE LOCKDOWN A performance for an audience not to be seen by Lorenzo Belenguer
More In Than Out – THE LOCKDOWN is a random recollection of performances and thoughts that took place in central London in the thick of the lockdown by the Spanish artist Lorenzo Belenguer. With no audience available, the performance took place nevertheless.

THE DISTINCTLY HUMAN AND VIVID WORK OF AMAIA GOMEZ MARZABAL
“My inspiration is the image itself. I like to tell a story with my art and let the viewer thinking about the message of the image,” says Amaia Gomez Marzabal of her paintings, “Through the ideas of repetition and chaos, I like to speak about human behaviors: what we repeat unconsciously and what we try to change from the social patterns we have learned since childhood.” There is something inherently human and messy and true about seeing an image that feels so real but which at the same time edges into the surreal like one sees in...

ONE WOMAN’S JUNK, THE WORLD’S TREASURE
Hong Kong has, for centuries existed as a city on the precipice of both the East and West, a threshold between worlds, and like her place of birth, Andree Kong was raised on the edge and in the middle of many things at once. Born into a bilingual family, Andree was raised to appreciate the values and art forms from two very distinct cultures.

“Traces of moments – Dreaming the continuity”
"The butterfly does not count the months,
but the moments,
therefore she gets enough time ”
(Tagore)
