Surf and the sun is here! But it starts rain again this afternoon! Crazy spring here in the basque country, poor surf, non stop rain… Today is the day Ines Susaeta starts

Yesterday Inés Susaeta set up her Workshops at Montes + Múgica. After a very succesfull opening last week, 2 persons were allready waiting for her and her Jewels. She is going to have her pop up workshop, in the amazing space located at the Narrika 1 street, until saturday 08.06.  A unique opportunity to see her working live, to see how she shapes her delicate but powerfull vision on her work. SUSAETA . REINHARDT . DECOSTER  is the most sophisticated exhibition we have organized. The mix of Susaeta´s Jewels born from the sea, Valentine Reinhardt and her fantastic, irreal landscapes, and Pandora Decoster and her unique film universe. 3 girls, second generations surfers, iconic names in the Basque Coast. Unique!
