It’s always inspiring for us to see the paths each artist takes and what happens in the following months or years after the experiences each artist has in the Ucayali region and to see in what ways the experiences of this time are reinterpreted and mixed with the knowledge, sensibilities, and needs of each artist through art. The discipline and creativity of the prolific artist Evy Jokhov, with her unique blend of experiences, are reflected in these images that are related to her stay the region and the exhibition THREE COLORS: GREEN at 3+1 Arte Contemporânea, Lisbon, Portugal.

Clara Imbert and Evy Jokhova Clara Imbert Is a French artist, currently based in Lisbon, Portugal. She graduated from Central Saint Martins in 2017.
