promises to shock, yet to make one think.”

"Tribal sonorities that exemplify the energy that human art can have...aroused great astonishment in the VIA performance." https://www.tradebit.com
"The Art of VisionIntoArt leaves us intact with one reflection. Art can have a mission, one that can shake consciences, with the conviction that various cultures can find an encounter point without losing their identity, celebrating in the name and wealth of diversity.”https://www.tradebit.com
