Join Amalgama Art in an exploration of Latin American artists who re-envision the concept of Hilo (‘thread’) as a multifaceted artistic expression. What are the unique essences of Latin American storytelling? How have artists challenged and pushed the boundaries of their narratives? From literary chronicles that weave intricate plots to visual journeys that use diverse materials to craft mesmerising stories, we'll untangle this rich tapestry of creativity.

Daniela Galan, Founder & Director of Amalgama
Jane Soliman, Partner & Founding Advisor of Amalgama
Sofia Clausse, artist from Argentina
Vanessa Enriquez, artist from Mexico

About Tertulias Artisticas
This October, If you’re near, if you’re listening, will present exhibitions and events at Cromwell Place which explore the art, culture and lived experience of the Ibero-American and African regions. The title, an extract from the poem, I sing what you loved, by Gabriela Mistral (translated by Ursula K. Le Guin), reflects Cromwell Place's desire to be a home for artistic expression across continents.
Tertulias Artisticas are a series of talks that illuminate the innumerable ways art and photography can expand our understanding of the world whilst acting as a tool to create community and advocate for societal change.
