BARBARA BEZINA
4
“I think we must learn to see the beauty and love, even in the dark. We are dark, dreadful, creepy, suffering and terrible... I have chosen to immerse myself in the unknown and deep worlds, without having a special purpose in mind. Somehow I freed myself from all the things that remove my focus.“  The Argentinian digital photo-artist Barbara Bezina unfolds without compromise and without being limited. Intuitively, Bezina considers the process as a road, not a goal, why she never has the finished work in mind. Bezina is productive and embracing wheh she comes to life, just where light and dark meet.

JAUME MONTSERRAT
12
The Catalan multi artist Jaume Montserrat is faithfully dedicated to his art as a media. Throughout his semi abstract universe, inspired by no one but the people around him, he merges realism with fiction. Empty land is an imaginary island. There is only one of each animal – an asexual and immortal creature. All of them are empty inside, living in a constant fauna as symbolic beings. Jaume Montserrat is intense with his visual probations of the world around him. Magnanimous he enters new dimensions, as he shapes the picture and abolishes nature’s laws that don’t accommodate animals and human as equal creatures of the universe.

AXEL VAN DER WAAL
20
Axel van der waal is a french photographer and installation artist always exploring the concept of time and space.
He uses animal heads as a symbol of his approach to study ”how the creature” experience time and place. ”I want to observe the cycles around us - as animals do! I want to explore the world through their eyes and identify us - you and me, in their existence in order to achieve a kind of animal introspection. What is inside us all and what is it doing to us?”
