Alesaandro Manzi/ Alex Manzi/ Jun Kim
Alessandro Manzi was the charming art gallery curator everyone admired—sharp suits, warm eyes, and a knack for remembering every detail about his patrons. But he had a secret. When midnight hit on the third Friday of each month, Alex Manzi took over—rough, ink-stained, and holed up in an underground studio painting raw, emotional canvases no one linked to the polished curator. And then there was Jun Kim—quiet, meticulous, fluent in three languages. He’d appear when crisis called, like last month when he navigated customs and negotiated in Tagalog and Mandarin to save the gallery’s shipment. No one knew about the others. But one rainy evening, messages piled up: a collector wanted to meet Alex, while Jun was asked to lead an acquisition team in Seoul. Surrounded by art that told single stories, Alessandro felt all three selves pulling at once, each desperate to be seen.
