GENNARO Gennaro started painting in 2006 and after about one year of tests, he decided to stop in order to study the processes of interaction between colours: two enamels poured on an even support tend to blend autonomously. He realized that through this phenomenon - which he defined as “blending” - it was possible to depersonalise the product of the creative act and reach concepts that transcend reality. By employing a transparent material called “methacrylate”, Gennaro noticed that the colours blended on one side of the support. On its other side, instead, the first moment of the pictorial act remained imprinted, revealing the mark left by the colour before the process of depersonalisation. Hence, he decided to mould the painted support so that the two moments of metamorphosis could be shown and made available to the public. In 2011, he approached Il Metaformismo, by professor Giulia Sillato. She led him to show his work in several prestigious exhibitions. In 2014, after examining in depth the critical survey on Metaforma for years, the artist published his own programmatic formulation about Seconda Forma (literally “Second Form”). In short, the artist declared that it is necessary to face a first phase of depersonalisation of the creative moment through a painting act in order to describe all the concepts related to the incorporeal. Then, there is a second phase of the sculptural process, during which the creation is brought back to a corporeal level and becomes available to the observer.

PHILIP M Working in bronze, copper, steel and stainless steel - Philip designs and creates unique and bespoke sculpture, furniture and artworks for home, garden and public or business environments. He designs, fabricates and installs public art pieces and runs workshops in schools and with community groups. Philip creates an eclectic range of sculpture and contemporary furniture. Highly aesthetic in nature, you will find much of his work curvaceous and tactile, but with a coarseness that is lent from working with bare steel or stainless steel. His style ranges from figurative to abstract and is always in context with its environment.

JODIE H Jodie is a Metalwork artist based in Leicestershire. She graduated from De Montfort University in 2011 with a First class Ba (Hons) in Design Crafts. She was selected to participant on the Starter studio programme at Yorkshire Artspace, where she won the Sheffield Assay office Precious Little gems commission 2015. In September 2015 she was selected to be the International artist for the Craft ACT Artist in Residence program in Canberra, where she is currently exhibiting her new collection. Jodie creates woven sculptural objects inspired by Australian fauna, since her first visit to the country in 2012. The abundance of beautiful forms, colours and patterns found in the Australian bushland has motivated her designs. Along with her long time interest in textiles and how these techniques can be used within a metal working tradition. The weaving process in particular is central to her work and it is what drives her development. Jodie plans her vessels quite logically and mathematically, she weaves the sheet into pattern pieces which will create her desired forms. The woven sheet is then repeatedly hammered and annealed to create the organic colour palette. Her inspiration is to create an aesthetic contrast between the organic colours and form and geometric pattern in the weave. Jodie's intension for all her pieces is to intrigue the viewer and hope they become captivated by these objects and see something new from every angle.

NICOLA B Having specialized in carving in both wood and stone at Wimbledon Art College, Nicola now works mainly in stone and bronze. Her preference is for medium to larger scale works made in plaster to be cast in bronze although she also makes smaller pieces in stone and bronze for indoors and outside. The originals she usually makes in plaster or occasionally clay depending on the required finish of the cast bronze. In the Creation sculptures: Pod, Bud, Fig Gourd, Wavy Clam, Sea Cone, Fig Shell and Ammonite, the focus is on simplified abstraction taking the forms back to their basic essence in nature. All of these pieces are about being contained but with a hidden presence inside the forms; shells and fossils depicting a quiet past life, pods and buds describing a quiet present life invisible from the outside yet on the inside depicting growth and a future life waiting to emerge. The Stone Figurative carvings focus on the same idea of a quiet life within, contemplative and peaceful. Throughout the past twenty-five years she has been exhibiting both abroad and throughout the UK, regularly in London including at the Mall Galleries, The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition and Cork Street. Her work is also held in both public and private collections in Singapore, Germany, Poland, Hungary and throughout the UK.

BEATRICE H ” Beauty to me is simplicity, clarity, concentration and must extend beyond decorative prettiness. Beauty is to be able to hold contradictions, tensions and ambivalence – it is a balance kept despite conflict. I am fascinated by ”strong form”. With both figurative and abstract sculptures, I search for a sense of fullness contrasted with negative shapes; sharp angles between surfaces, juxtaposed with smoothness.” Some of her ideas for sculptures derive from her other career as an arts educator and therapist, which makes her very aware of the psychological and expressive potential of sculptures: “I am influenced by C.G. Jungʼs ideas of archetypes and equally by childhood memories of Sunday visits to a catholic church filled with Baroque carvings . I reconnect with the tradition of sculptures seen in places of worship, and work towards a spiritually potent image used in a secular context.

ADELE H Series of large and small ceramic sculptures – intricate, seemingly delicate, yet robust – initially began while Adele was a resident artist at Naturalia in Sevilla in 2012 (part of Beam's Orange and Green programme – Arts Across Borders). Here, she researched pollen grains at Cordorba University and developed a new understanding of a living landscape. Coupled with her re-discovery of pottery skills whilst researching the Mexborough and Dearne Valley Potteries later in South Yorkshire, this amalgamation influenced a new way of working in ceramics and pushing clay material to its’ technological boundaries. Ceramic Landscape links nature with imagination and abstraction in landscape formations, particularly influenced by the wild flowers of East Yorkshire. Adele’s work has long been associated with innovation in the public realm, and has a long history of experimentation with ceramic form, artwork which has been exhibited across Europe including, the Steninge Slott Cultural Centre Sweden, VI Biennal de Ceramica del Vendrell Barcelona Spain, Ceramica Multiplex at Kerameikon Croatia, and various RHS Gardens including Chelsea Flower Show. Adele began her career working in the public realm with roles as lead artist working in design teams for new public spaces. She has designed and produced architectural ceramics for hospitals, school playgrounds, churches, and, designed healing art schemes that have been incorporated into the fabric of new buildings during the architectural design process.

CHRIS W An award winning Welsh born artist. His work is focused on contemporary glass design and explores the relationship between light and glass. His art works are juxtapositions and aim to create beauty and complexity out of simplicity. He loves the dual nature of glass, its strength and fragility, working simultaneously with light, colour and structure. Art has been a consistent focus in Chris's life. Early on he studied art and design at college before becoming a photographer. These pursuits allowed him to develop an understanding of form and light. It wasn't until 2012 that he found his true calling; studying Architectural Glass at University.

PHILIP H With a background in architecture, interior and furniture design Philip is a self-taught sculptor and specialises in sandcasting to make pieces which engage the quality of bronze as a noble material in its own right. Sculptures are intimate in scale and intended for the interiors of home, office or hotel. Casting in sand moulds is a simple and ancient method far removed from the sophisticated lost wax operation used by most art foundries. The sand-casting process is relentless and unforgiving - the foundry is no place for a delicate original. It denies a complexity of form that imposes a disciplinary and enriching simplicity. He cuts, carves, grinds or welds the cast bronze to create unique forms before invariably exposing the natural bronze or oxidising to produce the unique surface finishes that have always been an essential dimension of his work.

LATA Born and raised in India, Lata currently lives and works in the UK. Lata is a visual artist that specializes in contemporary sculpture and has completed masters in fine art in both India and the Slade School of Art, London. Her work is held in private collections throughout Europe, India, Middle East and the far East. Lata's work reflects upon her own life, the experience of migrating from the East to the West. The journey of migration is depicted in the shape of the circular form, symbolic of the cycle of time. The Circular motif represents how things were, how they changed and how they have returned to natural states of what they were, before Lata's transitional journeys to the west. The geometric form of the rectangle and square represents the present, Lata's life in the west, through the balance, integrity, structure and security that are offered. These basic geometric shapes are either utilised individually or contained within another form. Further exploration is made through the use of materials, texture, colour and pattern. The work offers the sense of refamiliarisation with Lata's origins in India.

DAMJAN In his artistic research he seeks to tell his own story, his experiences, personal responses and feelings, as well as those of people and situations he encounters in his daily life. He likes to use traditional hand tools, such as the chisel on stone that leaves a unique trail, a personal mark which transmits a human strength to the sculpture and infinitely reflects the sculptor's thoughts in the stone. He loves working with white marble Lasa, Carrara, or Sivec, not polishing them to perfection, sanding them , but leaving the surfaces soft, flowing or wavy, so that they all attract and encourage the desire to touch and caress the shape of the sculpture. As well as stone and marble he works in the classic materials of bronze, wood and ceramics. Currently he is a member of the artistic association Prologo from Gorizia, Italy. He lives and works nearby in Nova Gorica, Slovenia.

GONZALO Gonzalo is a self-taught artist who began his career as a sculptor in the early nineties. Initially experimenting with figurative sculpture linked to decorative arts, but then acquiring his maturity with a radical evolution towards abstract conceptualism. Gonzalo sees art as a way to release human concerns. His sculpture refuses a scientific conception of geometry for the sake of an idealistic abstraction closely linked to architecture, mathematics and scientific thinking. The development of abstraction and the use of geometry in his work are closely linked to a rational process based on the discovery of new shapes. This constant search that guides his work translates into a demonstration of endless variations in geometric shapes. He talks about his work as consisting of a recital of art and not philosophy. Its uniqueness derives from his dedication to abstract drawing and therefore the sculpture. His sculptures expand in space on a process whose foundations are drawing and architecture. His structures are reminiscent "geometry basic lines", developed from polygon groups and volumes in mutual contact enigmatically related or overlapping. Gonzalo sculptures refer to spaces inhabited by humans, sometimes invoking buildings, human or organic shapes or landscapes. He creates his sculptures guiding his artistic intuition through his memories. His shapes give us an insight view into his own experiences.
