SubCity Projects at the Dark Art Fair
In German, the word Hellsehen is composed of two words. The first word “hell” means clear, bright light. The second word “sehen” which means to see, as in “seeing the light.” It refers to seeing things that others might not see, like a clairvoyant. This insight was clearly expressed by my longtime friend and artist Ingrid Roscheck at the opening night.
Performing live inside the booth was the liquid alter ego/5 star psychic Cherry “its not my real name” Daiquiri aka Kim Mitseff who was available for private readings. Booth design and paintings were the work of alter ego Lava Caramel aka Candida Alvarez with a special edition art comic book created by alter ego Nar Duell aka Lynne Heller. This was the inaugural launching of www.PsychedelicChick.com a webscape project conceived and directed by artist, Kim Mitseff (current Ringleader of TrackHouse Land Share, Marble Colorado) in collaboration with web designer/artist Lynne Heller (Toronto, Canada).
This is the first international venue for SubCity Projects, an independent artist project space conceptualized by artist Candida Alvarez. It currently lives inside her studio within an adjacent small room and is only viewable through the window of room 1036 at The Fine Arts Building, 410 S Michigan Avenue. It is open daily 7am-10pm, Sat 9am-9pm and Sun 10am-4pm. Please send all inquiries to [email protected].

I would like to thank my dear friend and fellow artist Rainer Barzen of Cologne for indulging my request at the Dark Fair for a list of words that spoke about his engagement with our project when my brain only saw white light.
