Monday, September 27th, a new exhibition was opened at Nitroglobus Roof Gallery featuring the art of Hikaru Enimo-Lefevre (Hikaru Enimo). The exhibtion is named “My Reflection” and consists of 13 pictures.
“The exhibition ‘My Reflection‘ is in Hikaru’s own words the habit of deliberately paying attention to once own thoughts, emotions, decisions, and behaviors. Periodically it reflected back on an event and how it was handled, in hopes that to learn something from it and make better decisions in the future.” (taken from the accompanying notecard)
Hikaru’s pictures are taken in Second Life and processed to highlight effects and details. In all of the a male avatar is in the center. A few are explicitly erotic, which is rare for male avatars in Second Life. Hikaru obviously like his dog as it appears in several of the pictures. Nonetheless all pictures are very different, none seem to be part of a series. And as always, the mirroring effect of the floor adds a lot to the presentation of the art.

I’ve been quite some time in Second life and I report about art and galleries also for quite some time. But I admit I had never heard about Hikaru Enimo-Lefevre before.
Hikaru is almost 11 years in Second Life, he is a model, a photographer, a stylist, a manager, a blogger and more. He’s really very active in Second Life – obviously just living and working in another part of Second Life than me. The list of his activies is long:
L’Homme Magazine SL. Owner & Editor-in-Chief
Neo-Japan SL Event Co-Founder & Blogger Manager
GABRIEL Blogger/Event/Store Manager
ReaEvil Blogger Manager
FinerThreads Blogger Manager
Since1975 Blogger Manager
KARTEL Store Manager
E-Clipse Design Social-Media/Blogger Manager
VARONIS Social-Media Manager
Damage Society Blogger Manager
Chapeau! And his artwork is quite intriguing.

Nitroglobus Roof Gallery is owned and curated by Dido Haas. For the exhibtion “My Reflection” by Hikaru Enimo-Lefevre, Dido has added two ghosts who fly in circles within the exhibtion space. It is Dido’s personal tribute to the upcoing Halloween season.
Thank you, Dido for providing the space for the art and for enabling the exhibition “My Reflection” by Hikaru Enimo-Lefevre. Once again I had the opportunity to see an artist, who I never came across before!
“My Reflection” shall be open throughout most of October.
