EXHIBITIONS
THE DANCE
September 6–12 2019
The third solo exhibition Linda has held in Hong Kong.
'Dance is the hidden language of the soul, of the body' – Martha Graham
In this show Linda distills the essence of dancer's art (from Flamenco to Swing, Ballet to Modern) of impassioned movement into another form of art. An exploration of connection, trust, immersion in the moment and emotion, to express what words cannot.
At the Opening, world-renowned Clara Ramona Flamenco Dance performed. Videos and images can be found on Linda's Facebook art page and Instagram.

About FACE
December 1–12 2018
Linda's solo show was at Naked Hub Gallery, Hong Kong.
The human face, through it's complex anatomical construction, is a powerful communicator of emotions. As a figurative expressive artist, Linda finds no other subject as endlessly fascinating and challenging.
