In January 2017 a week-long 24/7 durational performance art event, Brgy. South Kensington, took place in a three-bedroom house, showcasing 10 international artists living and working together and live-streamed on Youtube.

South Kensington curators Linda Rocco, Vittoria Bonifati, Jeth Reyes, and contributing artists Matthew Harrison-Lord and Luli Perez, and a screening of a film of the project by CRUDOSTUDIO.
Brgy. South Kensington is an _inventory platform project in collaboration with and published by My Parent's House. It is designed by Giandomenico Carpentieri, and generously supported by Fondazione Dino and Ernesta Santarelli.
