"This is Love" by Blacklist Studio

Nathan Johnson from Blacklist Studio

05 November - 28 February 2022

Imagine a blind taste testing but for words where you have to guess a concept that the whole world talks about without saying its name. This is a word for which you don’t need a dictionary in any language, an idea that sweeps you away and breaks down borders, a story that unites everyone...


Can you guess which word it is?


Love. Amor. Amour. Amore. Maitea. Liebe. Agápē




We are bringing you the latest artistic work from Blacklist Studio in Australia made for The Eleven House. A work of art that has been crafted from and for love, without falling into clichés or trivial matters. By forging a new vocabulary, inventing a new lingo in which everyone is able to create their own definition while observing the piece.


Who hasn’t crossed borders in search of love...


It is the most commonly used word in all languages, easily equaling the word chocolate. It is a universal language in and of itself. Everyone has felt it at some point. Everyone has received it and everyone has given it. Partners, family, friends, animals, books, hobbies, silence...


Is there anyone who can’t define love?


Even when striving to avoid the word, it is people’s most innate emotion. An engine, an energy, a light that allows us to move and make the world a bit better.


The universality of this concept is traveling from Australia to our home in Peratallada to break down the semantic barriers and showcase the artistic version that Blacklist Studio offers us from Sydney. Just like neither art nor love has any borders, we have worked to present a piece created for The Eleven House where love is the central pillar.
