Culture between the lines is a collaborative column of 2duerighe and Brussels Morning. Serena explores trending and historical currents in culture, and their social, economic, and political meaning, retaining a locally grounded but Europe-wide perspective. From festivals and exhibitions to interesting people, she tries to capture the artistic expression that surrounds us, adding something to the way we reflect and feel about the world.
