Uslada Joins StudioToGallery, Curated by Sonia Borrell

In December 2025, while immersed in the creation of Queen of the Night, Uslada received a personal invitation from Sonia Borrell — a respected contemporary art collector, curator, advisor, and philanthropist known as Sonia BB London — to join her new platform, StudioToGallery.com.

Launched in February 2026, StudioToGallery is not a conventional commercial marketplace but a thoughtfully curated, mentor-led community designed to provide artists with genuine career guidance and international opportunities. Uslada is honored to be among the first artists hand-picked by Sonia for the platform.

With over 15 years of influence in the contemporary art world, Sonia Borrell founded the Tryson Collection in 2008, dedicated exclusively to acquiring works by living contemporary artists. Her collection includes works by prominent figures such as Takashi Murakami, Banksy, Yoshitomo Nara, Alex Katz, and Jaume Plensa. What distinguishes StudioToGallery is its artist-first philosophy. Participating artists benefit from structured mentoring sessions, weekly Q&As (exclusive to members), and direct access to collectors and curators. Collectors may also join select discussions on art investment, collection building, and market trends. Each artist receives a carefully curated profile featuring a limited selection of up to eight works, personally reviewed by Sonia. Sales are handled securely through the platform.

My art collection is much more than the pieces themselves—it’s about the artists behind them and the common enthusiasm for creativity. In curating art, I’m also nurturing the talents, giving them a platform to shine and be recognized. Mentoring emerging artists is about giving back, sharing wisdom, and fostering a sense of community and continuity within the art world. It’s my hope that the artists I’ve championed will pay it forward, ensuring that the cycle of inspiration and guidance thrives for generations to come.

This invitation marks a significant milestone for Uslada — a quiet yet powerful validation of her artistic direction and a vote of confidence from a curator who deeply understands that artists are at the heart of the art ecosystem. Sonia Borrell has curated major international exhibitions, served on juries for art prizes, advised institutions across Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, and consistently champions emerging talent with an emphasis on long-term sustainable growth. Her work often bridges cultural contexts and opens global networks for artists.
