To launch the second season of From A to Zig-Zag, focused on creative partnerships, I’m speaking with Isa Lorenzo and Rachel Rillo of Silverlens, a leading contemporary art gallery in Southeast Asia that began in Manila in 2004, when it was founded by Isa. Rachel joined her as co-director in 2007. Now, they are about to open the doors to their gallery space in New York with two solo exhibitions: Martha Atienza’s ‘The Protectors’ and Yee I-Lann’s ‘At the Roof of the Mouth’.
In this conversation, Isa and Rachel talk about how they each got their start in the art world, the zig-zags they have gone through with Silverlens, and the exciting plans they are working on with their new permanent location.
