Where Purgatory Ends in New York

The visit in United States Of America was another great experiment from many points of view. Now I saw the land where all the movies from my childhood where made and the first step outside the JFK Airport in New York was a interesting experience. Thanks to Stefan Raduta, the promoter working under the name of Singe Valah, “Where Purgatory Ends” exhibition happened also in this epic center where all civilizations seems to be attracted to. The event was very well prepared, as Stefan prepared some very interesting installations for exposing the artworks in a very cool way and having on the stage in the middle of exhibition, great artists like Kevin Hufnagel (Dysrhythmia, Gorguts), NathanaĆ«l Larochette (Musk Ox), Daniel Menche, Mick Barr (Krallice). Before the exhibition was open, the legendary Tony Iommi visited the location for having a quick signing session for his book “Iron Man”. Surrounded by the artworks of “Where Purgatory Ends”, he met a group of selected fans, in a very special atmosphere.

If regarding Finland I can say things straight, regarding the New York moments I really need more time to process, as the level of information was quite heavy and I really consider that place something totally different than what I saw before. I want to thank these great artists that shared the stage in the middle of my exhibition, turning the atmosphere of “Where Purgatory Ends” into different dimensions and ways of perception. The huge thanks goes to Stefan Raduta, for making this thing possible and to an angel that I met there under the name Emily.

I wish I could say more…but I think the pictures are working better.

Where Purgatory Ends in Helsinki

Finally I have the time and energy to add few lines on my website regarding this special moment that happened in Helsinki, thanx to the organizers of Mega Therion Festival.
The atmosphere in Finland was amazing, I really enjoyed how the people are resonating there with art in general and I was really amazed by their way of visiting a gallery. First of all, the gallery in Kaapelitehdas, Tallberginkatu was an unusual one, a completely alternative space, which was very well prepared by the promoters to be the right place of the ‘where Purgatory Ends” ritual to happen. On the other hand, the visitors were the ones that I like most: silent and focused to what is on the walls, not on the socialization. I will like to say again a huge thank you to CRISTI, MAT, MARJA, KALLE, MIIKKA, SAARA, MINNA, VEERA and ALL THE souls gathered around CLUB MEGA THERION, which it seems to be more like a new artistic movement than a …club. Visit their events as they have very fine tastes regarding art, music and visual in general. In the end I would like to add some pictures from this event:
