Agnieszka Rusak-Tyma | Sweden Absolvent of Higher School of Applied Art in Poznan, and Medical University in Gdansk in Poland. Since 19 years she has been living and creating in Sweden. Agnieszka has presented her paintings on silk , acryl paintings, collage on several exhibitions in south Sweden. After 13 years of break she showed her new digital graphics and videos on individual exhibition in Theater Gallery in Siedlce , in Poland in 2019. Thoughts, dreams , memories captured in digital space. The real becomes unreal, the unreal transforms to the real. The imagination opens up the doors to new worlds, in witch our mind meets new perception. Any laws of physics exist, only illusion. Faces change dimension to half-human halv-machine. Technology impacts our lives , as well as art. My digital graphics and videos are tribute for Human and Humanity , the most fascinating mystery and miracle in our universe.

Atuska | Hungary I grew up in Hungary on the border of a little town just next to the river Danube. I spent my childhood drawing horses and the beautiful nature which was surrinding me. After turning 18 I moved to Budapest to study economics and design. In my twenties I was on a mission to travel as much as possible to discover the beauties the globe can offer and to train my eyes seeing different colors and countries and cultures. During my travels I started to feel a really strong need to express all the magnificent aestethics my eyes were lucky enough to capture. I was almost itching. I worked a lot with pencil, aquarell, pastell, guache and acryl during my schoold years, but this time I wanted to do something different. This was this the point I went to buy my fist canvas. I thought Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m making the piece for my own walls but just 6 months later a business parter of my convinced to sell it to him after discovering the painting on social media.I belive in quality and I belive in slow process. when I do a piece it usually takes 3-9 months to let it go. My art practice is all about to bring long lasting pleasure to the eyes by not compromising at all when it comes to time, quality and quantity about materials used. I strickly paint with oil and when I use gold I use only 24k gold. This might be the reason that the first 5 years of my art practise an international bouquet of collerctors bought all my works without any gallery or art dealer involved. I use simple brushstrokes but I like to create multiple layers of different blacks and different whites within one painting. These hidden stories making the viewer able to find something new in my paintings even years after purchase.â&#x20AC;¨When I add colours it's all about finding a sophisticated harmony with visual weights even on those pieces which look harsh for the first glance.

Berta Miravete Lapetra | Spain Bachelor in Fine Arts at Facultad de Bellas Artes de San Carlos de Valencia, Spain. 2003. I was born in Valencia in 1980. Actually, I live in Madrid with my family. I have been working as Art and French language teacher for 10 years. My solo shows take place each 10 years or so. I consider myself a multidisciplinary painter. My work varies greatly depending on the moment of my life. It is no coincidence that this pictorial diversity has a difference of between 5 and 10 years in most cases. I am involved in painting and designing. My work is posted in Linkedin.

Cris Cavalcante | Brazil My canvases have a different expression according to the angle, lighting or perspective you are looking at. I developed my technique through the study of mixtures that consist of the physical-chemical combination, joining catalysts, temperature and time, respecting the phenomena obtained through chemical reactions and the balance that some reversible reactions carry out, re resulting in a chromatic exuberance. ” The elements mix and come to life and the effect of this is an explosion of colors that awaken sensations and surprise. His works are in private collections in Portugal, Luxembourg, Germany, the United States and China (Shanghai), and in Brazil in cities such as São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Fortaleza His paintings occupied their own space at CasaCor Ceará 2019

Intensidade Feminina | Acrylic on canvas| 160x120cm

Cristina Cabrita | Portugal Her work reflects the nature and feminine sensuality through characters that appear as a visual representation of an inner maturation process. Her paintings represents the awakening of the “inner voice” through themes such as acceptance and detachment, self-reflection and surrender, escape and independence, and thus seeks to embody her characters of feelings. Light plays a central role in her paintings, often recalling the light/shadow contrasts of stage photography. Women who emerge in black backgrounds inhabit her canvas, as small flames of intense light and whose body volume appears and disappears merging into a black immensity. The canvas are medium-size and painted in oil with plain monochrome, white or black backgrounds contrasting with the sepia and earthy tones of the skin's countour. Sometimes, the artist introduces a symbolic color in the hair strands or in the flowing clothes of women. There is a deep dialogue between shadow and light that aims to communicate the intimate energy present in each representation of the female body. The artist intends to establish a spiritual connection with the observer that goes beyond the mimetic observation of the image and whose purpose is to communicate the “inner voice” of each character.

Domingo Parada | Bolivia I believe that, as a painter, my creative 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 emotions, imagination and fantasy. All that exists in the Universe is constantly created by energy. This energy manifests itself in billions of vibrations, 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 palette that I can use to demonstrate the moments of my conscious experience. My work can be interpreted by consciously or un-consciously grasping the vibrations of the light in all of its forms and colors as if they were a form of pure music.

Elisa Colina | Spain “For me painting makes the imagination tangible through colors and my hands” The foundation of my paintings is the combination of colors, I love working with a base of textures, exploring them and my objective is to combine these with a deconstruction of the elements. The motives of my paintings are their justification to work with colors and to provoke emotions and sensations in the spectators and create a visual-emotional communication. I paint diversity, (landscapes, nature, cities, or figures etc..) I tend towards a static image, as does photography, to immortalize that moment and so that the viewer feels free to interpret and felt what they observe. My style is figurative, I try to find verisimilitude with reality, I try to capture an evocation of it. I like making global compositions, background colors helping to contrast the main subject. A common element in most of my paintings is the unfinished brushstrokes. In my preferred palette I usually use the Prussian blue tone and I like combining it with a warm palette. I use a mixed technique. I like variety in acrylic painting with gouache, oil, integrating pencil and charcoal. I have a preference for the spatula because it allows for an unfinished touch; a decadent, handmade and imperfect aspect, just like life: “it´s not perfect” Working with the spatula, roller and brush is in a way an allegory for me of manual work, something that I create with my hands and imagination. This is a paradox, because I work on the construction of a painting whilst wanting to evolve towards the deconstruction of reality

Lorraine Mahot de la QuĂŠrantonnais | France Lorraine MahotÂ´s practice lies in-between the obscure and the sensitive, where tensions are transformed into aesthetic. Multidisciplinary, her poetic expression takes form through drawings, paintings are collages. The result is always confessional, as an intense dialogue between delicate intimacy and vigorous discourse. Born in France, she holds a Bachelor in Fine Arts degree at Parsons School of Design, attended The Florence Academy of Art (Italy) and Ar.Co (Portugal).

Marta Iglesias | Spain Since I started a Fine Arts Degree in Madrid I have never stopped painting, observing and learning about Geometry, Architecture, Design, Lines, Color and Shapes. I have been on the long, long road of Art, full of experiences, surprises and If you keep your eyes open on this road, you find the light of the Mystery of Creation. The years I spent in Mexico gave me knowledge and appreciation about other Cultures. The Mexican ceramics, murals, and textiles, reveal a great spiritual enrichment and I understood that the principles of Abstraction and Geometrical Art that exist around the World. Art is not only decoration - Art is full of Cultural symbols. I came home to Galicia, Spain where my current works were completed. I also came home with new eyes from all my travels. My destiny is to stay on the fulfilling Road of Art.

Natália Gromicho | Portugal A gifted painter, in the purest sense, Natália has skilfully created a body of work that is simultaneously lyrical and mysterious, jubilant yet poetic. Employing these paradoxes, she skilfully applies her raw talent into different mediums and styles creating 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 dramatic ploys such as contrasts in scale, shifts in focus, irrored reflections, staccato images, and multiple or layered surfaces. Sensory perception for Natália is a spiritual activity, 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 theoretical avant-garde conceptions of deconstruction emerging during Modernism.

Sinikka Elfving | Norway Sinikka Elfving is a Nordic painter. She was born in the Northern part of Finland close to Arctic Circle. She lives and works in Norway. She is inspired by the strong contraries of the Arctic 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 expressionistic. The metaphysical aspect of colors has a special place to embrace emotions. She is also fascinated by the phenomena of light that has certain magic in the Arctic 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 evolution towards humanity and respect for life.
