Hunter's comment

The places Mateu Velasco knew were turned into distant memories during the pandemic – dreamlike flashes that fed into the visual research for the creation of the body of work of THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE NOWHERE. Virtual walks on Google Street View, when Velasco couldn't leave home, led him to places that existed in the real world but which were flattened and turned into nowhere within the solitude of the online universe. The representation of these places in his art weaves a common thread related to Velasco’s own history - his citizenship of nowhere
