PANNI GARAI IG:@awsumpanni Panni is (by education and self proclamation) a Motion Designer who is highly inspired by nature, symbolism and mythologies of the world, thus, spitting spiritual and surreal nonsense left and right in the times when she isn`t sleeping and dreaming about them In her free time she likes to contemplate over drawing, watercolor painting, and plants ( and hands. Visibly). Her main influences are Boris Vian books, Mars Volta songs, Hieronymus Bosch paintings, Hollow Knight like videogames and indispensably, Adventure Time episodes.

YEZI LOU IG: @ departurepoem Yezi Lou, who was born in 1997, works in a variety of media mainly from painting and drawing to printmaking. She received her BFA from the School of Visual Arts and is currently an MFA candidate at UCLA. Yezi’s current working direction is reproducing the daily objects. Because of the defamiliarization, the objects in her works may not be immediately understood as to exactly how they were supposed to be; while the audience views them as general observational art, perhaps attracted by the toned down color can slowly discover the narrative meaning behind them Most of the objects in her works are barely noticeable; these neglected objects are given an abstract and cultural meaning without necessarily carrying a purpose

Tina Sun, an aesthetics chasing Chinese multidisciplinary artist, born in 1996 with 10 years of art studying , graduated from university and postgraduate in Milan with a major in Fashion Design, currently living in Barcelona.

She believes that any form of meaningful art can be a language that can be perceived without interpretation. She creates paintings, and the paintings are talking to us at the same time.

TINA SUN IG:@tinasunjy

The work is a visual diary of the world, the act of using painting as a medium between society and nature. Interpretation, documentation and presentation of the natural and unnatural worlds using artificial and human actions.

LIFE IS SHO IG: @lifeis sho Life is sho is a project created by Helena Gimeno, an artist from Barcelona It is a collection of over 50 illustrations that she defines as ‘illustrations of the human experience’ They represent feelings, emotions or experiences that are universally human, regardless of nationality, religion, gender or age.

Effort portrays that tough, often long and challenging path a person must sometimes walk to achieve its objectives. It might feel like pushing a heavy rock, but nothing worthwhile is easy: keep going!

Courage illustrates the decision of somebody to develop their own opinions and steer their own life

Unconditional represents that strong, beautiful bond between two people. Knowing they can trust each other to be there when needed is priceless.

EMILY ROSE LARSEN IG:@ sir lady emrose Larsen create still lives of fabricated flora and fauna with living plants, images taken of taxidermied beasts at the Museum of Natural History NYC and mass produced animal representations Contemplating the absurd way in which we simultaneously idolize and fetishize nature, despite our deep need to distinguish ourselves from it, and our inability to stop ourselves from destroying it. Larsen’s enduring interest lies in the space between the human experience and reality. The intangible fuzzy cloud that allows us to continue forward as we rotate between functional ignorance and the horror of realization. She earned my B.F.A. in Photography at the School of Visual Arts, NYC
