The installation allows visitors to come through and be immersed in a world where simplicity simultaneously exists with a touch of opulence. The gallery becomes a work of art within itself as the studio's founders Nacho Polo and Robert Onuska have curated the space visually. The original collection and historic space complement one another as the setting is draped in a simple cloth to create a seamless sense of anticipation of whats to come. The stage hits the spotlight as it highlights Balzano's work. The second series is subbed Loci where the concept of place is explored in shaping a personal sense of identity.
