The Birds Sang Until the Sky Broke
13th June - 31st July
Tangent Projects, Barcelona 

The Birds Sang Until the Sky Broke embodies a fantastical, sacred, queer utopia, home to a world where joy holds suffering, where love and trauma intertwine. Through a richly layered and nonlinear narrative, the artists manifest a fleeting world of our own–an ephemeral sanctuary that embraces all who step within it.

Showcasing the work of Ali Arévalo, Sangre de María, Lotte Frances, Annika Sunne, Lisa Vander Plaetse, and Julia Cella, this week we will zoom into the work of Lotte Frances.

The works carry an undercurrent of the past—of wounds and wisdom—revealing how harnessed histories fuel radical imagination. The Birds Sang Until the Sky Broke becomes a site of exaltation, yet not without spectral echoes. Joy and suffering, past and present, destruction and rebirth—all coexist within this sacred space.

This exhibition is an invitation: to step into a queer utopia where community is both refuge and revolution, where art reclaims and reimagines, and where the act of storytelling becomes an act of divine transformation.
