This Sunday will see the opening of *p_OO_f* gallery, owned by Music Hyun and GM Nikolaidis. Juel Resistance will be playing her acoustic blues live, followed by Dexter Ihnen and his spunkyfunkylicious songs. The evening will be rounded off with an auction of two art pieces for the Relay For Life. It starts at 4 p.m. Music Hyun is currently residing at Artropolis Island, but it’s getting crowded there. That’s why she’ll now open her second gallery in Second Life.

“The sim where I was first, Brooks Wharf, is too sleepy for me. I tried to get the other artists to coop on events, but gave up,” Hyun said. “Costs for one alone to pay musicians et cetera are too high.” Hyun hopes that she and Nikolaidis – “a dear friend” – will be able to create a lively gallery.

The new gallery has been built by the landlady, Peewee Musytari. “An excellent builder. She also owns the first two of the coming 7 Deadly Sims, and our gallery is at Envy.”

Hyun says she likes to take pictures that are either very realistic, or wildly unrealistic – “something that could never be in RL. I’m very fascinated by Strawberry Holiday’s work, and take a lot of pictures of her projects. She touches my heart. I can loose myself, become a part of her work, especially at The Throes of Rapture,” Hyun said. She also likes fantasy sims like the Black Swan, or dirty urban locations. “But with people I seek a human look; something real.”

She decribes Nikolaidis’ work as more high class and conventional than her own. “He’s great at stylish fashion, and also does fantastic landscapes. I am wilder, maybe.”

Hyun and Nikolaidis have already planned a second arrangement on the 14th of April. “That will be my first attempt to involve the other sim residents. I hope to make events that all will profit from, creating traffic, and get to know more and more people. But I cannot afford doing it alone. I need the help of a team, and I think this will work at Envy,” Hyun said.
