In the virtual art world of Second Life, where creativity merges with technology to create unique and engaging experiences, there is a place that continues to stand out for its dedication to promoting emerging talents and original artistic expressions: the Nitroglobus Roof Art Gallery. In this atmosphere of inspiration and reflection, Mihailsk’s photo exhibition “Lost” seeps in like an underground river, carrying with it the tumultuous waters of human emotion.
The title itself, “Lost,” lays the groundwork for an emotional journey through the lens of the artist Mihailsk. And, as emphasized by the creator himself, this series of photographs is not just a collection of images, but an intimate exploration of periods in life when we feel lost, alone, and disoriented due to the loss of someone of fundamental importance.
Mihailsk’s inspirational muse for this exhibition is Athena Mariposa, a significant figure who has drifted away from his life for reasons beyond their control. In the introductory note to the exhibition, accessible at the Nitroglobus landing point, a deep sense of gratitude towards Dido Haas, the tireless owner and curator of the art gallery, emerges for sensitively and openly welcoming Mihailsk’s works.
Mihailsk’s photographs, strictly in black and white, capture the very essence of “lost.” Each image is a fragment of an emotional puzzle, portraying the artist in moments of solitary exploration through various locations in Second Life. The nuances of black and white, the heightened contrasts, and the deep shadows combine to create a visual narrative that speaks directly to the viewer’s soul.
It is through the play of light and shadow, of lines and contours, that Mihailsk communicates his personal experience of loss and loneliness. Each image is permeated by a palpable sense of absence, of emptiness left by a now-distant presence. But it is also through this same absence that the expressive strength of the works emerges: a testimony to human resilience in the face of loss and separation.
Mihailsk’s exhibition “Lost” at the Nitroglobus Roof Art Gallery is much more than a simple photo exhibition. It is an intimate journey into the heart of human emotion, an ode to the fragility and strength of the human spirit. Thanks to Mihailsk’s artistic sensitivity and the generous hospitality of Dido Haas, this exhibition will surely leave a lasting impression on anyone who visits it, offering a space for reflection and connection with the depths of their own emotional experience.
Mihailsk’s work, with his ability to capture the essence of “lost” through static images, invites the audience to explore their feelings of disorientation and solitude. It is a call to reflect on human relationships and the challenges we face throughout life, urging us to find comfort and strength in the awareness that we are not alone in our emotional battles.
Through the support of the Nitroglobus Roof Art Gallery and its curator, Dido Haas, Mihailsk has found a precious space to express his artistic vision and share his deepest emotions with the world. And for this, both the artist and the gallery deserve the praise and recognition of the Second Life artistic community.
In conclusion, “Lost” by Mihailsk is much more than a simple photo exhibition: it is an emotional journey that invites the audience to explore the depths of the human soul and find comfort in sharing their experiences. If you are looking for an artistic experience that touches the heart and soul, look no further: “Lost” awaits you at the Nitroglobus Roof Art Gallery.
“REVIVAL OF PSYCHE, LOST” by Adwehe – February 2024 at Nitroglobus
Adwehe’s sculpture, “REVIVAL OF PSYCHE, LOST,” stands as a poignant addition to the February 2024 exhibition “LOST” by Mihailsk at the Nitroglobus Roof Art Gallery. Crafted specifically for this occasion, the sculpture enriches the overall ambiance and narrative of the exhibition, adding layers of depth and complexity to the gallery space.
In this evocative sculpture, we are confronted with a tortured figure, its wings partially ensnared within the marble, suggesting a palpable sense of confinement. The presence of the woman’s hands, delicately holding the remnants of the figure’s head, introduces yet another dimension of complexity to the artwork.
What sets Adwehe’s sculpture apart is its deliberate juxtaposition with Mihailsk’s photographic images. While Mihailsk’s compositions may emphasize themes of isolation and struggle, Adwehe’s sculpture offers a counterbalance by highlighting the longing for connection and reunion. The female figure, prominently featured in the sculpture, symbolizes the human desire for unity and wholeness, as her outstretched hands reach towards her lover, forever trapped within the confines of the marble.
Through Adwehe’s masterful craftsmanship, “REVIVAL OF PSYCHE, LOST” encapsulates a profound and thought-provoking narrative. It beckons viewers to contemplate the complexities of love, separation, and the innate human yearning for connection. As spectators engage with the sculpture, they are invited to immerse themselves in a deeply emotional journey, resonating with the universal themes depicted within the artwork.
As the dawn breaks on the virtual horizon of Second Life, prepare to embark on an ethereal journey unlike any other. On Sunday, March 10th, at 9 am, and Saturday, March 16th, at 5 pm, the Muse Theater and VWBPE Conference will be graced with the enchanting presence of “The Sky We Share,” a modern dance production that promises to transport audiences to realms of wonder and imagination.
Conceived by the visionary choreographer Anu Papp and set to the captivating melodies of Ryan Farish, “The Sky We Share” invites spectators to contemplate the profound interconnectedness of humanity amidst the vast expanse of the cosmos. Through evocative movements and evanescent harmonies, this production explores themes of unity, longing, and the universal quest for meaning.
In a world where borders fade and distances dissolve, we are reminded that beneath the facade of diversity lies a shared celestial canopy. “We share the same azure sky and moon,” whispers the poetry of the performance, “same running sun and Northern star, yet not the same teardrops of crystal dew sieved through the grains of time, on the alabaster frozen dunes of life… so far.”
As dancers gracefully traverse the virtual stage, weaving tales of magic and mystery, audiences will find themselves swept away by the transcendent beauty of the choreography. From the mystical allure of white trees to the haunting echoes of howling winds, each moment unfolds like a brushstroke on the canvas of the imagination.
The first performance, taking place on March 10th at 9 am SLT atthe Muse Dance Co Theatre, promises an intimate and immersive experience that will linger in the hearts of spectators long after the final curtain falls. Located amidst the enchanting landscapes of Ravenhart, this venue provides the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable encounter with the sublime.
For those unable to attend the initial showing, fear not, for “The Sky We Share” will once again illuminate the stage onMarch 16th at 5 pm SLT at the VWBPE Auditorium Main Stage. Hosted by the Virtual Worlds Best Practices in Education Conference, this performance offers a unique opportunity to engage with the intersection of art and technology in the pursuit of knowledge.
Founded on the principles of innovation and collaboration, the VWBPE conference serves as a beacon of inspiration for educators, artists, software designers, and 3D modelers alike. Supported by Linden Lab, this annual gathering fosters a community dedicated to exploring the boundless possibilities of virtual worlds in education.
As we eagerly anticipate the unveiling of “The Sky We Share” at VWBPE 2024, themed “Mythic Origins,” let us heed the call of adventure and embrace the transformative power of artistic expression. Join us as we embark on a journey through time and space, guided by the timeless wisdom of the stars.

We want to commemorate the life and artistic contributions of Giuseppe Cistulli, known to his friends as “Pino“. As a real-life artist, Giuseppe shared his beautiful paintings with the virtual world of Second Life, where he was known by the pseudonym Renoir Adder. His works can be admired at Mediterraneo-OC, where a dedicated exhibition showcases his talent and passion for art.
Giuseppe’s paintings, characterized by vibrant colors and a palpable sense of positivity, have left an indelible mark on the Second Life community. Among his most celebrated works are the portraits of two beloved popes, Pope John Paul II and Pope Francis. These pieces not only capture the likeness of these influential figures but also convey a profound sense of reverence and admiration for their spiritual leadership.
It is through Giuseppe’s artistic vision that we are reminded of the power of art to transcend physical boundaries and touch the hearts and minds of individuals across the globe. His ability to infuse his paintings with warmth and optimism has brought joy to all those who have had the privilege of experiencing his work.
As we reflect on Giuseppe’s legacy, let us remember the joy he brought to the virtual world of Second Life and the lasting impression he has left on all who have encountered his art. His paintings will continue to serve as a testament to his talent and as a source of inspiration for future generations of artists and art enthusiasts.
In honoring Giuseppe Cistulli, we pay tribute to a gifted artist whose legacy will endure through the beauty and positivity he shared with the world. May his paintings continue to brighten our lives and serve as a reminder of the enduring power of art to uplift and inspire.
In the month of February, the renowned Nitroglobus Roof Art Gallery, owned and curated by Dido Haas, will host an exceptional art exhibition titled “Shadows of Strength” by Frank Atisso. The exhibition will be presented in “The Annex” room at Nitroglobus, offering the audience a unique perspective on the interplay of light and shadow through grayscale male nude photography.
What makes this exhibition even more special is the rarity of artistic image exhibitions featuring the male nude in Second Life. Frank Atisso aims to break the mold by providing the audience with something different from the usual artistic routine. In “Shadows of Strength,” Frank portrays himself in various interpretations of nudity, exploring the inherent beauty, strength, and vulnerability of the male physique.
Frank Atisso is a well-known name in the Second Life art community. He has been an influential art blogger in the past, writing numerous reviews of Second Life art exhibitions on his blog, “Art Kornersl.” When writing reviews became too time-consuming, he created the Art Korner Exhibits HUD, which provided a weekly overview, including landmarks of Second Life art exhibitions. Furthermore, his contributions extend to the gallery scene, as he was the former owner and curator of ArtKorner Gallery, which has now transformed into Artsville Galleries with Jerzzie Reece as his counterpart.
When Frank showed some of these remarkable images to Dido Haas a while ago, she immediately suggested that he exhibit them at Nitroglobus. Dido Haas is thrilled with the quality and mood of these photographs and takes great pride in showcasing Frank Atisso’s work at Nitroglobus, making it the first gallery ever to exhibit his art.
Additionally, Dido Haas expresses sincere gratitude to Adwehe for her artwork, “The Fountain of Strength,” situated on a GO board play, created especially for this exhibition. Adwehe’s artwork adds another dimension to the atmosphere of “Shadows of Strength” and has captured Dido Haas’s attention.
Frank Atisso’s “Shadows of Strength” exhibition promises to be an extraordinary experience for Second Life art enthusiasts. The grayscale photographs, skillfully utilizing the interplay of light and shadow, delicately highlight the contours and lines of the human body. This exploration of beauty, strength, and vulnerability in the male form is undoubtedly a testament to Frank Atisso’s artistic commitment and talent.
Art lovers and visitors of Nitroglobus Roof Art Gallery should not miss the opportunity to admire “Shadows of Strength.” The exhibition offers a unique chance to immerse oneself in an artistic experience that challenges conventions and provides a fresh perspective on the forms and beauty of the male body.
