Dear art lovers,

I’m truly excited to share some wonderful news: I will be taking part in Artbox Project New York 1.0, happening from March 5th to March 16th, 2018, at the Stricoff Fine Art Gallery in New York City.

This exhibition takes place during the vibrant Armory Art Weeks, one of the most important and prestigious periods in the international art calendar. During this time, New York becomes a powerful meeting point for collectors, curators, artists, and art lovers from all around the world — a city where creativity is celebrated, showcased, and felt on every level.

Stricoff Fine Art Gallery: A New York Space for Contemporary Creation

The Stricoff Fine Art Gallery is a recognized contemporary art space in New York, known for supporting diverse artistic voices and showcasing works across multiple mediums and styles. Being featured within such a platform — in the heart of a city as iconic as New York — feels incredibly meaningful.

New York carries its own artistic pulse: art exists everywhere — in galleries, in architecture, in street energy, in cultural diversity, and in the contrast of stories that shape the city. Exhibiting within this context becomes a beautiful way to connect my artistic universe with that unique global vibration.

“Fronteras” — A Piece About Inner Passage & Invisible Borders

For this exhibition, my artwork “Fronteras”, a soft abstract acrylic painting measuring 81 x 102 cm, will be showcased on a large screen throughout the exhibition.

Fronteras is a piece that speaks about what cannot always be put into words: the boundaries between the known and the unknown, the inner movements we experience, the transitions we navigate, and the thresholds we cross.

In a world where borders often appear externally, art also reminds us that many borders live within us — and that they can soften, evolve, and be transformed.

Fronteras carries that energy of passage, expansion, and subtle transformation.

A Meaningful Presence in New York

Being part of this New York edition feels like a strong milestone in my artistic journey — a moment of celebration, accomplishment, and openness. It represents the opportunity to bring my art beyond geographical boundaries and into an international space where contemporary creation meets global visibility.

And of course… there is something magical about being able to say: Here I come, New York!
