The aim is to create opportunities, in order to encourage and support artists to exhibit and promote their work.

ECE KONAK @lapicina

My name is Ece. I am 29 years old. I live in Istanbul right now. I used to live in Athens, Pasalimani in 2014-2016. When I met your instagram page about open call artists, I have felt a deep emotion with my 'GreekLover' heart entirely. I have been working as English instructor as second language but I am interested in Arts. I have my own mandala designs and I do it both handmade and digital. My works are so new and modern although mandala is an ancient/historical art.

One of my digital mandalas is going to be exhibited in and online art exhibition about 'Ego' in March,2020 by Artdistx.

BOBBIE SEAGROATT @bobbieseagroatt

My work is concerned with how a woman’s appearance is regarded - in everyday life, in intimate contexts, in social situations, in advertising media. How strength can be gained from what women adorn themselves with, for example, bodily decoration. How women present themselves to the outside world, how illusions and distortions of the female form can be made with clothing and fabric, and the contrasts to be found with these methods and without them - the partially hidden female form, and the naked.

My work process starts with photography - editing to achieve a strong starting image, then using the paint and brush strokes to transmit the right feel for the painting.

ELAZAR ELPINER @elpinerus

I am a native Muscovite. For more than 10 years I have been living in the Maryina Roshcha area. During this time, I have accumulated a huge number of photographs, which during 2020 turned into a Digital art project called "The Fourth Dimension".

Moscow is not the sunniest city and its architecture as a whole emphasizes this. With my work, I want to show the beauty of the space around us, which is often hidden from our eyes.

Mainly Soviet constructivism, which left an indelible mark on the architecture of almost any city in modern Russia.
