NEWS: September edition
Exhibition in Portugal, new work, music and Verona ahead
A new solo exhibition in the Algarve
On September 4th, my solo exhibition In the Pink will open at the gallery of the same name in Loulé, Portugal. This feels like a meaningful return: three years ago I was part of their inaugural exhibition Fashion, and now I come back with an extensive presentation of my work.
An overview across five series
For the first time, In the Pink will bring together works from five major series: Rhythm, Champions, Peak, Karawan, and Echo from Beyond. Together, these bodies of work offer a deeper look into my evolving practice, an exploration of rhythm, movement, silence, and the distilled essence of black-and-white photography.
Invitation to the opening
The private view takes place on Wednesday, September 4th, from 18:00–20:00 at In the Pink Gallery, Praça da Republica 69–75, Loulé. I will be present at the opening, and I would love to welcome you there. From September 5th onward, the exhibition will be open to the public (Tue–Fri 10:00–18:00, Sat 10:00–14:00).
I look forward to sharing this new chapter of my work with you.
Echo From Beyond #42: A New Set and Unique Work
My new DJ set, Echo From Beyond #42, continues my exploration of deep techno: layered rhythms, hypnotic repetition, and an organic energy that flows without end. Each set I create is not just about music. It is about a psychedelic experience, a journey where sound and image move in the same rhythm.
Every set is paired with a dedicated artwork, the two bound together as a single piece. Echo From Beyond #42 is linked to a unique work that will soon become available. There will only ever be one. If this piece resonates with you, feel free to reach out directly.
