Jordi Machí presents Villa Esperanza | Art Exhibition

  • All Day | Tuesday May 05, 2026 - Wednesday September 30, 2026
  • Good Chemistry | Ace Hotel Athens

Villa Esperanza is an imaginary city built through painting. Spanish artist Jordi Machí constructs a fictional residential complex where modernist architecture, constant summer light, and quietly suspended moments invite you to wander through spaces that feel almost too perfect. Each work is a different apartment. Each façade, a scene you finish yourself.

083 C – Villa Esperanza, acrylic on canvas, 100 × 100 cm

Bye Bye My Love, acrylic on canvas, 100 × 65 cm
