About me
Sylvia Barrero (bysylviabarrero)
There is beauty everywhere, even in the most chaotic corners of this planet. We rush through life without noticing it, and all we have to do is change our focus. My work wants to show the miracle of every daily routine, every person we come across, every place we visit and everything we see. My inspiration is the infinite color and beauty in this world.

has been for sale for some time, as you have seen. The maintenance and ongoing development to keep our non-profit and idealistic platform for contemporary art running and safe from hackers etc. costs money that is no longer there. Because of small investments that are necessary now and the running costs, we will have to shut down with a heavy heart at the beginning of summer on June 21.
