Adélia Clavien

The mixed media technique brings an extra dimension to my work because it is full of elements, textures, details and allows me to explore the interac:ons between the different mediums and graphic instruments. The use of a mixed media technique offers me immense possibili:es of expression and allows me to personalize my ar:s:c language. In pain:ng, we speak of mixed technique when the colored ma?er includes at least two binders of different nature or heterogeneous materials. In the history of pain:ng technique, ar:sts have oAen mixed materials to achieve their ends. My "mixed media" pain:ngs are composi:ons containing up to 15 (or more) photos superimposed and digitally processed. The base photo and several other superimposed photos which bring the ar:s:c side.

Once the digital image is mounted, it is printed on canvas. This canvas is then painted with different mediums such as: Acrylic, Charcoal, Sand, Stained Glass, Plaster, Bitumen of Judas, etc... The whole is then covered with epoxy resin. In contemporary art, the synergy between different forms of expression has oAen merged to give life to new manifesta:ons of a crea:ve inspira:on strongly oriented towards singularity.

Adriano Berne/ da Vila

Undoubtedly color is the guiding element of my way of pain:ng. "Color is a quantum electromagne:c vibra:on, but with it we also transmit an emo:onal vibra:on. For me, pain:ng is first of all knowledge of the world, nature, humanity, history and emo:ons. As far as I'm concerned, the word art inspires me respect and I prefer to talk about pain:ng instead of art, which means expression of sensa:ons, a path to deepen some aspects of nature and emo:ons. Trying to express and convey in some way the feeling of power of an imaginary ocean wave, or colors inspired by a sunset, or to recreate the emo:ons linked to a par:cular state of our life through an abstract pain:ng, could be, I repeat it could be, something that comes close to art.

But the real essence of a pain:ng is the emo:ons that it can create in the eyes and in the soul of those who look at it”

Ana Maria Malta

Trabaho a minha Aguarela num impulso de sen:r em pleno a força e a beleza da Natureza. No silêncio e a um ritmo frené:co a côr e a água dançam numa harmonia onde as formas abstractas conduzem a uma Natureza Bela Virgem e Selvagem que Tanto Amo.

Domingo Parada

I believe that, as a painter, my crea:ve work is fruit of my awareness of the world which surrounds us. But the world is not only a visual world. It is also the immensurable world of our interior mind, its landscape of emo:ons, imagina:on and fantasy.

All that exists in the Universe is constantly created by energy. This energy manifests itself in billions of vibra:ons, among this is light. Light is color. The infinite colors of the spectrum together with the geometric forms that are essence of the Universe give me a pale?e that I can use to demonstrate the moments of my conscious experience.

My work can be interpreted by consciously or un-consciously grasping the vibra:ons of the light in all of its forms and colors as if they were a form of pure music.

Elisabeth Vaz

Elisabeth VAZ born in 1972 in Isère, self-taught painter. I started pain:ng a li?le over 22 years ago, oAen in the evening when the children are asleep and sneaking around! Yes in secret because in my entourage we do not understand my new craze for pain:ng ... Being of Portuguese origin, in our environment Art is not part of our culture or my educa:on ... I persevere despite everything because it brings me a lot, I who am quite withdrawn, in front of my canvas I finally express myself, I transmit my emo:ons, I am me in another world, I exist. In my pain:ngs we find a dominance of warm tones, a lively and luminous pale?e. When I started I worked with brushes and very quickly I integrated the square and the rule. I mainly work with oil, I recently tried acrylic and aerosol. AAer a period marked by in:mate and rela:vely confiden:al work, I decided to show my work to the general public. My first exhibi:on will take place in 2008 at the Grenoble Painters 'Market, for the next 8 years, I exhibited at the Hôtel de l'Europe in Grenoble, at the Comptoir de l'Armaccord, at the Marché de l'Art d' Annecy and in St Cyr au Mont d'Or. This will be followed by an individual exhibi:on at the Lyon City Hall and other exhibi:ons.

Irene Turner González

Imagine the surprise. On a trip to the Canaima jungle camp I had to get out the boat with a sick child in my arms, wading to the river island called La Orquidia, without knowing well how to handle the situa:on, where I was given the kindest help by the Pemones, whose tribe has inhabited the region for genera:ons, without reaping the benefits of the years.

They led me to what looked like a small inn, with impeccable rows of hammocks strung neatly across a wellswept room, comfortable, safe and dry, awai:ng not tourists but travelers who cross this difficult terrain, headed to places I did not know.

Michael Henry Ferrell

In my work I endeavour to portray life in a posi:ve light, to show the love I have for the world, its cultures and the environment in which we all live. The interpreta:on between colour, texture and the way that people interact with their surroundings are very important to me. If in my own way I can use my art to bring love, happiness, and the apprecia:on of life into the lives of people who see my work then I have achieved my goal. In the end it is up to the individual.

I work in oils, watercolours, inks and pastels. I do not like to :e myself down to any one media or subject ma?er.

Natália Gromicho

A giAed painter, in the purest sense, Natália has skilfully created a body of work that is simultaneously lyrical and mysterious, jubilant yet poe:c. Employing these paradoxes, she skilfully applies her raw talent into different mediums and styles crea:ng a sense of flux, depth and dominance.

Natália’s work takes elemental images, from nature and the landscape to culture and individuals she encounters on her travels, and transforms using drama:c ploys such as contrasts in scale, shiAs in focus, irrored reflec:ons, staccato images, and mul:ple or layered surfaces.

Sensory percep:on for Natália is a spiritual ac:vity, one that leads to a heightened awareness of both nature and culture—this thought process points to a new kind of realism—one that is engaged with the actual processes of life. Yet, it also references the theore:cal avant-garde concep:ons of deconstruc:on emerging during Modernism.

Pejo

The Belgian ar:st couple, winner of The London Art Biennale 2019. In real life and in ar:s:c life a couple that made its way into the glass art world, Johanna as Laureate Master in stained glass and fusion techniques and Peter an award winning interna:onal designer joined hands and minds to create contemporary glass art as Pejo. At first, Pejo created contemporary stained glass windows with a three dimensional twist by adding perspec:ve. Their designs were picked up by some galleries in The Netherlands and Norway where they had their first solo exhibi:ons. Being restless they soon started with glass fusion techniques, small abstracts mounted in old wood to large figura:ve glass works. By experimen:ng with new materials and techniques they created their own unique style, resul:ng in interna:onal recogni:on. Their exclusive and unique designs made with the Pejo technique resulted in many interna:onal prizes and a permanent exhibi:on in The European Art Museum in Denmark. They just follow their urge to discover how far glass will allow them to be bent and shaped as they imagine it. The uniqueness of their art is that their style changes every :me, trying to make the next challenge that enters their crea:ve minds, they have no blue or red period, only a vision of two minds thinking alike. Pejo’s glass art is found in many homes in Belgium, The Netherlands, France, Norway, Denmark, Sierra Leone, Thailand and even the United States of America.

Šárka Darton

“My prac:ce is interdisciplinary. I much enjoy working across various subjects and media. Fundamental to my art is the act of deep looking and seeing, examining the no:on of iden:ty in the context of ever-changing :me and space that we occupy.” Šárka has had 18 solo exhibi:ons in the Czech Republic, Italy and the UK and 39 group par:cipa:ons in The UK, Italy, USA, France, Portugal, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Morocco among them the important par:cipa:on at the 57th Venice Biennale where she was commissioned to designed a dress for the commemora:on of the 20th anniversary of the death of Diana the princess of Wales.

Sinikka Elfving

Sinikka Elfving is a Nordic painter. She was born in the Northern part of Finland close to Arc:c Circle. She lives and works in Norway. She is inspired by the strong contraries of the Arc:c life, the dark, long and cold Winters and the bright Summers. This is revealed in her works. She uses symbols in her art which are found in nature. In that way her art becomes lyrical, spiritual and expressionis:c. The metaphysical aspect of colors has a special place to embrace emo:ons. She is also fascinated by the phenomena of light that has certain magic in the Arc:c Zones during the seasons. With her art she tries to inspire people to value the spiritual meaning of life, to protect the nature and work for peace. The Earth is our only home that we should be able to share with each others, live and let live in peace and harmony. The nature is the exclusive provider of life on Earth and our survival is depending on it. We should find a turning point in our evolu:on towards humanity and respect for life.

Yvonne Wiese

As a child artclasses inspired me to paint people and I liked it very much. Therefore, when I start as technical translator, I never stopped pain:ng only slowed down un:l I stopped working. Then I started in art schools and learned by professional ar:sts. When I was introduced to paint with ar:st knife I found the expression I wanted. I specialized in acrylic paint layer on layer with ar:st knife on canvas, as I very much like the raw and not photographically expression. I paint impressively and with bright colours, and like the contrast between light and shadow. My mo:ves are people, animals and nature from own photos and inspira:on from different medias.My speciality is portraits. I have exhibi:ons in Denmark as well as Spain Italy , and Portugal. In Denmark I am member of the art coopera:on K21 with 3 exhibi:ons each year and I exhibit in Art Nordic 2020 in Copenhagen in March. I have been awarded with many interna:onal prices.
