The Artists I Host

I work with what I call niche artists.

Some of them have been shown in established exhibitions, locally or internationally. Others may never have exhibited before. I am not interested in names, visibility, or status. I am interested in talent, authenticity — and in the process behind the work.

What matters to me is the message an artwork carries, the questions it asks, and the relationship between the work and the person who created it. I am drawn to art that is unconventional, sometimes uncomfortable but always deeply honest.

The artists I host have full authorship over their work. I do not manage them or shape their practice. I support them where support is needed — with access, orientation, confidence, and voice — especially where talent exists but connections, self-security, or entrepreneurial knowledge are missing.

Sometimes I host an artist only once. In other cases, our collaboration continues over time. Each encounter is intentional. Together, the artist and I curate what is shown — sometimes a body of work, sometimes only a single piece. The focus is never on quantity, but on resonance.

For these artists, creating art is not a hobby. It is a necessity. A form of therapy. A way of staying alive. Too often, I see extraordinary talent abandoned in favor of safe nine-to-five lives, not because the work lacks strength, but because the world around it is difficult to navigate.

My role is not to change the work —

but to help create conditions in which it can exist, even if only for a moment.
