Elena Vonbrota

Currently living and working between London (UK) and Rimini (IT). Working with paint, collage and sound, Vonbrota’s work addresses the excess of imagery and information that surrounds us and reflects on the psychic catastrophe, mental and planetary exhaustion that we experience in our age. Through painting and composing found images, her works create hallucinatory realms and chaotic narratives, where photographic images and visionary landscapes mix. Her practice references the wide texture of Italian and European painting in a dialogue that reflects on the timeless duality of humanity, where images of violence are mixed with laughter, orgies and nonsense, in a parody of the pathetic, hilarious, tragic and the epic at the same time. A journey of humanity through history and time.

Line Gulsett

 

Born 1981 in  Tønsberg ,  Norway. Live and work in The Hauge, The Nederlands. Line Gulsett`s work is a reference to both pollution and a perilous path.  One could say that Gulsett's method of combining the figurative and the abstract on one canvas is a dangerous path itself. Especially when none of her pieces seem to offer a satisfying answer to the questions of either representation of reality, or the loss thereof. But the title primarily refers to a bigger threat than that of a representational artistic practice. Many works are an investigation into the erosion of social cohesion. Gulsett feels that from childhood on human contact gradually diminishes, inherently damaged by the com-fortable distances of modern communication.

Charlotte Segall

Charlotte Segall (b. 1983) is an American artist, living and working in New York City.  She grew up in the Southern 'bible belt,' then studied at the Savannah College of Art and Design, and expects to earn her MFA from the New York Academy of Art in 2016, for which she has received the President's Scholarship, the David Kratz and Gregory Unis Scholarship, as well and the Francis and Leslie Posey Award.  Charlotte's work appears in the 86th issue of New American Paintings, as well as the 2014 Aesthetica Art Prize Anthology (UK), among others.  Her work is exhibited at Allouche Gallery in Manhattan and also appears in the Allouche Collection alongside key historical figures such as Jean-Michel Basquiat and Andy Warhol.  She participated in the Triangle Arts Association Workshop in Dumbo in 2012 and as a fellow at the Vermont Studio Center in 2010, as well as the Summer 2015 Leipzig International Art Programme with sponsorship from NYAA. Charlotte is best known for her drawings and paintings of Baroque-inflected forms that she derives from the romantic twists of sheep's wool, combined often with human and animal form in explosive compositions.  Her unique vision proposes 'playful abjection,' where both overwhelming possibility and impending death are felt too much at once, and with a smile.

Mitja Ficko

Mitja Ficko belongs to the generation of artists who graduated from the Ljubljana Academy of Art and Design in the late 1990s and became actively involved in the Slovene art scene at the start of the new millennium. This generation of painters responded to the notion of “new” painting in very different ways – by, on the one hand, continuing the tradition of the postmodern deconstruction of the hermetic and exalted status of the art image, or on the other, establishing intermedial dialogues and incorporating mass-culture image-making and the pop aesthetic in their work. Ficko pursued a third way, one that, fully aware of the limitless game of signifiers, references, and recycling and still greatly influenced by the “new image,” was interested in creating intimate personal worlds, poetics, and stories.

Anamaria Avram

Born in 1978 in Constanta, Romania. She studied Monumental Art (Mural Art) at Applied Arts and Design Faculty, National Art University of Bucharest, Romania and hold her Ph.D in Visual Art - Unconventional in Contemporary Visual Arts at Design and Visual Arts Faculty, ”George Enescu” Arts University of Iași, Romania. The course Avram had taken through visual arts always refused the manneristic convenience, diving in the questionable universe of the laboratory curiosity and experimenting with the determination of an unlimited interrogative temper. Receptivity to new and exploratory curiosity urged me to propel myself beyond the classical or linear representations. Her artistic vision develops the experiment within the traditional, modern and extraartistic vocabulary, methods, techniques, technologies or materials in conceptual directions of recontextualization and recycling. She nonchalantly passes from figurative to abstract, from painting to photography, collage, mixed media, assemblage or installation in multimedia / intermedia contexts. Avram took part in exhibitions, symposiums, workshops, residences, private or public works both in Romania and abroad - Bulgaria, Spain, France, Wales, Germany, Turkey, Italy.

Andrea Garcia Vasquez

 

Andrea Garcia Vasquez is a structural fiber artist from New Jersey, USA. She received her BFA from the School of Visual Arts, New York City in 2014. She creates installations and sculptures dealing with duality, interaction, and reaction. Being a first generation American from a Venezuelan family, Andrea has often struggled to identify with either culture. Most of the work is made of fiber and woven in some way. The process of weaving is about joining, combining, and intertwining different materials together to make one final product. The materials used typically symbolise womanhood, struggles of identity, and relationships. Andrea Garcia Vasquez allows for viewers to interact with her pieces. The purpose of allowing the viewer to interact with the work breaks boundaries, not only between the art as an object and the spectator, but also, between the viewer and social constructs. The processes in which the works are created and the way in which the works are experienced, attempts to unmask the demand for nature, self, reflection, and meditation in modern day society.

Jinhee Park

Jinhee Park is born 1984 in Seoul. Currently lives and works in Berlin, Germany. "My painting is visualizing irritated nerves, stimulated by the restless vibration between digital virtual reality and actuality. The works are struggles in a destructive system but yet a ludic and ecstatic dance, constantly seeking tangents. The tentacles wander aimlessly across hyperbolic space, they intertwine with others and also remain self-fulfilling."
