Discover Hio Rain, winner of the NNC Gallery Challenge 2022. Based in Orbetello, Tuscany, Hio Rain explores balance, fragility and paradox through watercolour, pencil, architecture and contemporary visual research.

The virtual solo exhibition of Monica De Mitri at The Secret Room is part of NNC Gallery London’s long-term research on virtual space as a real curatorial environment. Active since 2019, this research explores how digital exhibitions can expand access, visibility, and continuity for contemporary artists, from the Covid period to today.

xcerpt – Art Beyond the Frame “In Monica De Mitri’s work, space is not just a backdrop — it completes the artwork. Curved lines slide gently beyond the canvas, creating new forms that change with the light and the place. Every cut, every gesture is part of a ritual — handmade, slow, essential.” — Radmila Urošević

“In Monica De Mitri’s work, paper is no longer a surface but a living material: folded, painted, sculpted, it becomes space and form. Each piece is born without a plan, following the silent rhythm of the material.” — Radmila Urošević
