Shelters Two is a four-track release, reflecting Jelena’s immigrant experiences, human connection and the boon of a driver’s license.
Monopoly Players, Lucid Dreamers, and Astridur
“Human adults can be divided into two categories, which I have defined as Monopoly Players and Lucid Dreamers.
Beyond all human categories, there is Astridur, who lives, floats over, and paints the two categories fused. But let’s start with the basics.”

Amanda Riffo – House of Purkinje
Amanda Riffo’s solo exhibition at The Living Art Museum, House of Purkinje. The opening takes place March 18 from 17—19.
House of Purkinje stirs up our idea of completeness. In her practice, Riffo creates exercises, documents experiments inspired by cognitive science and optics, and all kinds of misunderstandings. Her retinas being radically altered by strong astigmatism, her work has evolved into a permanent questioning of reality. This practice has been reinforced by working for movie sets aside from her studio practice, which also leaks into this exhibition.
