'Do Not Open Before 2023' invites us all to engage in a dialogue between art and memory, in which the whispers of a past that illuminates the present echo on each canvas. While MILLO, with extreme care prepares numbered Time Capsules for his audience by slipping into each one something special never to be forgotten, we invite you to join us and meet the Artist to celebrate the power of memories and their deep connection to the artistic expression of the soul • • • Face the Ocean (2019) Carballo, Spain • • • “DO NOT OPEN BEFORE 2023” by MILLO 📍DCG Rome - Via dei Pettinari 76, 00186 Rome 🗓30 June 2023 📧 RSVP to [email protected] • • • DM us to receive the artwork list • • • #millo #donotopenbefore2023 #soloshow #DCGRome #DorothyCircusGallery #italianstreetartist #memories #memorylane #collectivememories #timecapsule #secret #personalmemories #collectivehistory #indeliblemoment #deepconnection #soul #ContemporaryArt #StreetArtist #ItalianPainter #UnseenArtworks #NewSeries

"There was a reason why I had been asked to dig a path, drop by drop the water should have reached the seeds my dad planted. Chernobyl was just exploded, it was April 1986, and the best idea on this lucky side of the pedal was to start growing our own vegetables."

In sharing his past, the artist MILLO has selected what has imprinted itself in his heart forever, and with the series “Do Not Open Before 2023" Millo draws inspiration from 13 memories, some are very personal snapshots and others are flash memories, which can therefore be traced back to a striking event that marked our history. • • • “DO NOT OPEN BEFORE 2023” by MILLO 📍DCG Rome - Via dei Pettinari 76, 00186 Rome 🗓30 June 2023 📧 RSVP to [email protected] • • • DM us to be added to the waiting list • • • Time Is Running Backwards 2022 Livorno, Italy • • • #millo #donotopenbefore2023 #soloshow #DCGRome #DorothyCircusGallery #italianstreetartist #memories #memorylane #collectivememories #timecapsule #secret #personalmemories #collectivehistory #indeliblemoment #deepconnection #soul #ContemporaryArt #StreetArtist #ItalianPainter #UnseenArtworks #NewSeries

As we look at the artist's memories that still crinkle their eyes as they have been awaken after being dormant for years, we retrace the long corridors to return to our rooms as youngsters and almost watch from the outside, as we rewind the tape of a cassette, lift that heavy receiver and smell the metallic odour of the cables curled up inside, those cables that brought us calls as much awaited as unexpected. The voices of those we loved come back to life and our hearts almost swell to bursting as we realise what we are seeing. • • • “DO NOT OPEN BEFORE 2023” by MILLO 📍DCG Rome - Via dei Pettinari 76, 00186 Rome 🗓30 June 2023 📧 RSVP to [email protected] • • • DM us to be added to the waiting list • • • شجرة التوت Al Jib, Palestine 2022 • • • #millo #donotopenbefore2023 #soloshow #DCGRome #DorothyCircusGallery #italianstreetartist #memories #memorylane #collectivememories #timecapsule #secret #personalmemories #collectivehistory #indeliblemoment #deepconnection #soul #ContemporaryArt #StreetArtist #ItalianPainter #UnseenArtworks #NewSeries

The work 'Time Capsule' begins a journey of perceptions through the complex web of human existence. We are with him as we insert the secret code, turn the key and emotionally lift that dusty lid from which collective memories are released, making our hearts beat again and taking us back to that time so far and so near that we all experienced together. • • • Time Capsule, 2023 Acrylic on Canvas 80 x 80 cm • • “DO NOT OPEN BEFORE 2023” by MILLO 📍DCG Rome - Via dei Pettinari 76, 00186 Rome 🗓30 June 2023 📧 RSVP to [email protected] • • • DM us to be receive the artwork list • • • #millo #donotopenbefore2023 #soloshow #DCGRome #DorothyCircusGallery #italianstreetartist #memories #memorylane #collectivememories #timecapsule #secret #personalmemories #collectivehistory #indeliblemoment #deepconnection #soul #ContemporaryArt #StreetArtist #ItalianPainter #UnseenArtworks #NewSeries

Millo's canvases express the fragility of human existence by winking at the importance of individual and collective growth in relation to the time and place we live in. The Artist suspended universes are characterized by black and white landscapes saturated with details and hidden life. • • • “DO NOT OPEN BEFORE 2023” by MILLO 📍DCG Rome - Via dei Pettinari 76, 00186 Rome 🗓30 June 2023 📧 RSVP to [email protected] • • • DM us to be added to the waiting list • • • • Essential (2022) Amman, Jordan • • #millo #donotopenbefore2023 #soloshow #DCGRome #DorothyCircusGallery #italianstreetartist #memories #memorylane #collectivememories #timecapsule #secret #personalmemories #collectivehistory #indeliblemoment #deepconnection #soul #ContemporaryArt #StreetArtist #ItalianPainter #UnseenArtworks #NewSeries

Painted with an elaborate illustrative technique on large size canvases, Millo’s artworks are like open doors to the human mind. Reflecting our most intimate sensations such as Love, Hope, Strength, Loneliness, and Fear hence the protagonists of Millo’s narratives are often a couple sharing a moment of tenderness calling our attention to stop the frenetic stream of time and carry us back to the simplicity of human feelings. • • • “DO NOT OPEN BEFORE 2023” by MILLO 📍DCG Rome - Via dei Pettinari 76, 00186 Rome 🗓30 June 2023 📧 RSVP to [email protected] • • • DM us to be added to the waiting list • • • Blooming again (2022) Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina • • #millo #donotopenbefore2023 #soloshow #DCGRome #DorothyCircusGallery #italianstreetartist #memories #memorylane #collectivememories #timecapsule #secret #personalmemories #collectivehistory #indeliblemoment #deepconnection #soul #ContemporaryArt #StreetArtist #ItalianPainter #UnseenArtworks #NewSeries

Crystallised at the very moment they happened, many of these memories represent fundamental turning points in our collective history. The artistic expression of these significant events offers a unique perspective, showing the artist's ability to capture the spirit of an era. The evocative power of each work captures the breath of years gone by and reminds us of the fragility and resilience of the human being. • • “DO NOT OPEN BEFORE 2023” by MILLO 📍DCG Rome - Via dei Pettinari 76, 00186 Rome 🗓30 June 2023 📧 RSVP to [email protected] • • • DM us to be added to the waiting list • • • #millo #donotopenbefore2023 #soloshow #DCGRome #DorothyCircusGallery #italianstreetartist #memories #memorylane #collectivememories #timecapsule #secret #personalmemories #collectivehistory #indeliblemoment #deepconnection #soul #ContemporaryArt #StreetArtist #ItalianPainter #UnseenArtworks #NewSeries

The Artist suspended universes are characterized by black and white landscapes saturated with details and hidden life. Illusionism and introspection are some of Millo’s art's main components. The spectator feels completely absorbed by the extension of fictional cities and gets lost in their streets leading to a nowhere based metaverse like reality representative of ancestral memories.
