I
happily present the first issue of the 2022 year. Feeling hopeful and looking forward to the year, we will continue to feed you art addiction with topics that cover the ever-growing art industry. With the pandemic finally reaching a conclusion (hopefully), I’m excited to see the shifts that will be made in our industry. I’m also looking forward to seeing what things will remain the same. I’m inspired by the sustainability of the art world and the innovation that has developed for the arts and from the artists. In this issue we explore the craft of architecture and what comes along with it—from structural designing, photographing to drafting and painting. We
interviewed Muhannad Albasha who discovered his interest in architecture by playing Minecraft. This happy accident moved him to ambitiously devour the field. March Fischer is also featured in this issue. A relatable artist who started his career working in the photo lab, he now captures brilliant and vibrant images of structures in his hometown. We also feature Lentonia Monique who has a background in drafting. Her company A Fly Line shows off a geometric approach to her paintings that’s rare in artwork. Happy reading! Wishing you a purposeful and meaningful year.
