Hashtag Gallery presented Urban Human Erosion — a solo exhibition by Borna Libertines. Eight collage graffiti paintings created in Mexico City from 2021 to 2024, each built from street posters collected from the walls of the capital.

Urban erosion is a natural phenomenon where materials in urban areas are gradually removed or dissolved by rain, wind, and sun. Instead of viewing erosion as decay or loss, Borna uses the eroded material as a palette to create art that tells a story about a place and its history. This exhibition invited viewers to confront their own memories and experiences, just as erosion exposes hidden layers.

Istria, Croatia (Maistra Collection)

Hotel Lone Gallery presented Art is Dangerous — a solo exhibition running through the Istrian summer. The collection presented eight collage graffiti paintings on the themes of child labor, urban life, addiction, and the philosophy of art itself.

"Art is dangerous do not attempt at home" — Art can be created anywhere; no fancy studio or equipment is needed. The street is art, and art is the street. Hagas lo que Hagas. Borna's work, collected from the streets of Mexico City, was transplanted into the refined architectural context of Lone, creating a striking contrast between luxury setting and raw urban energy.
