PHOTOGRAPHY
Danny Eastwood Danny Eastwood grew up in Wellington, New Zealand. Originally planning a career in Architecture or Industrial Design at university he was diverted into photography. The hallmarks of his enduring love of design and architecture are clear in his work today - his work tends to be concise and considered. This desire to build and construct things naturally led Danny to focus on still life photography. “There are many elements of design and architecture in what I do: I love building things, to craft and create things.”

PHOTOGRAPHY
Yigal Pardo Born in Jerusalem, Israel, 1965. With a degree in professional photography, I have been working as a freelance photographer for museums, galleries and curators, in New York, Tel Aviv and Herzliya for the past 25 years. Academy graduate in professional photography studies 1989. Work and live in TelAviv & Herzliya, Israel. My career as a professional freelance photographer began in 1989. The one thing in photography which interests me the most is testing boundaries and finding basic and fundamental characteristics that separates different areas and subjects, both in the visual level and in the philosophical level. I am taking real life scenes that are transferred to the surreal. In my work I'm trying to give a new meaning to the scene. By taking the scene out of its contexts, some time with computer techniques, I bring the audience into my surreal world and into his or her own imagination.

PAINTING

His artistic portfolio is notable for a kind of mysticism that is not immediately definable, which has grown through the evolution of his artistic life path. Today he has a style so recognizable and so typical of his intuitive artistic impulses that he has found his fascination in a sea of inspiration and acquired expertise.

PAINTING
Ré Art Painting, is for me, like piano music: every note has its own color, every picture its own melody. In the creative process, a full orchestra is sometimes formed.
Ré Art discovered the colors for himself a short time ago. He prefers to work with acrylic paints, in layers and overpaintings. With this technique, there are always new impressions and images in each picture. In the meantime, painting has become my passion that seeks its way in different colors and shades, always accompanied by piano music.

PAINTING
Gazink Cummins Artist from Belfast, Ireland, currently living in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. I am interested in art that explores the realms of the human subconscious. Glimpses of Ethereal Worlds with Archetypal Entities, Glitches in Perception, Visions experienced during expanded awareness where normal human language is no longer valid. Hidden Concepts that can only be understood through symbols and imagery. Akin to Religious Narrative Art, sometimes called ParaRealism or NeoSymbolism.

Chiara Magni
Creativity and being able to express one's emotions through a canvas and color is something very similar to magic. Creating an emotion from nothing is truly something unique.

PAINTING
Soey Milk A versatile artist, Soey Milk works primarily with oils and watercolors to create an outstanding narrative universe that is at once tender and strange. Characterized by the high level of meticulousness, attentiveness to details, and powerful combinations of colors and shapes, her work evokes a certain level of sensibility and mysteriousness, floating between realism and abstraction. The porcelain faces of her often-nude muses reveal an interior less innocent and pure than lead on to believe at first glance.

PAINTING
Sinyee Tan This series of works questions the idea of the portrait. People perceive portraits and photographs as a sign of an immediate identity. Often staged and constructed to suggest the intent of the sitter, a portrait becomes a major part of our identity. But when the visual aspect of what seemed to suggest our personality is taken away, will the intangible aspects of what we choose to reveal or conceal define us?

Simone De Salvatore ''Narrative spaces, places that don't need words to tell a story, they require just a glimpse and suddenly you're in. With this goal in mind, Simo started dreaming of a life path where he could create different worlds to inhabit every day, and he wanted to do that in films. After graduating in Cinema and Media Engineering in Italy, he learned on his own how to draw and paint. With a decent portfolio in his hands he then won a Master and with a travelling scholarship he moved to Hollywood. What he thought was the final destination instead became the first step - he attended the Gnomon School of Visual Effects and kept enriching his collection of works by specializing in Matte Painting, the art behind those worlds and landscapes that we see in films which makes us wonder whether we're being fooled by reality or an artist's brush. Two years of hard work and self-teaching landed him his first job as a Matte Painter in the motion picture industry, so he left California and moved to Munich. He fell in love with Europe again and decided to stay, working also in Hamburg, Stuttgart, London and Berlin. With his surprise, Hollywood kept presenting itself in the years that followed, giving him the opportunities of a lifetime full of creative dreams. His works can be found in The Grand Budapest Hotel, which led to winning an Oscar for Best Production Design in 2015, Game of Thrones, Cloud Atlas, Ridley Scott's Exodus: Gods and Kings, Snowpiercer, Captain Marvel, Lost in Space and more. These days he's writing and illustrating his own series of fantasy novels.''

SPECIAL EDITION
"My style is influenced by the abstract expressionist movement which denotes the non-representational use of paint as a means of personal expression. There is no particular system I follow when I begin a painting. Each painting has its own way of evolving. One may start with a few color areas on the canvas; another with a myriad of lines; and perhaps another with a profusion of color. Once I sense the suggestion, I begin to paint intuitively. When the painting is finished the subject reveals itself. This approach is liberating to me and has allowed me the freedom of expression absent of boundaries."
