My artwork is reminiscent of movie stills, moments frozen in time, engaging the viewer in the narrative.

ANDREY ODINZZOV Russia www.odinzzov.com

“Being originated from digital and electronic media environment, images of my works, have, in my opinion, too many “noises” that conceal the laconic beauty of an object, whether a flower or a gorgeous woman head. In my eyes and hands objects undergo a process of refinement and transformation in an absolute form, sometimes to a symbol. The color palette, going through the same processes, shakes off all shades like understatements, and the local color gains its strongest sound, with all elements fatally interdependent. All forms are filled up with their new bright texture. Therefore, what was just a moment caught by a camera, now attains new, everlasting, bright life in color, wood, acryl. “

ALEXIS GONNET

France www.alexisgonnet.com As I usually say, a hyperrealist painter tries his best to achieve a result which looks like a real photographic picture. A pictorialist photographer’s wished objective is visually equivalent to a painting.

Also involving intertextual references from my taste in cinema and Art in general.

ANNE VANDYCKE

United States www.annevandycke.com My art comes from my imagination and is an introspection about life and the feelings it can inspire.

Life is a path to be built upon, where the tradeoff is always between the essential and the accessory. Anytime we have to make choices between what is essential and what is accessory but we have to be very careful because sometimes we pass over the essential because we are unable to see it.

CHRISTEL HAAG Germany www.haag-art.de

The evolution of my paintings does not follow a predetermined concept. Rather, my works gradually evolve in an intuitive and dynamic process.

First I apply acrylic paints to the canvas using various techniques to then remove excess paint in several steps or rework the surface.

The initial brush strokes are overlap or come together and determine the direction the painting process has to go until a harmonious painting emerges.

JEFF MURRAY

With inspiration taken from music, film, subconscious state of mind, lifestyle and the exploration of travel, the endless search for new outcomes never tires. By drawing these ideas in art formations allows you to step into an intricate world of surreal illusions, intertwining natural surroundings and realistic impressions.

A mix of bold, graphic colours with a hand-crafted finish. This creates a hyper-realism Pop Art style that transforms real objects (vehicle parts) into pieces that look surreal.

JUNG-CHAN LIAO Taiwan www.jcliao.com

I come from Taiwan. I got a master degree from Taipei National University of the Arts (TNUA) in Taiwan. Now I’m teaching Visual Arts in universities and colleges.

For me, the most difficult things to express by photography is to depict one’s internal feelings , thoughts, and beliefs. Therefore, I prefer to infuse elements of aesthetics and philosophy into my photos, rather than only record what I see from the outside world. That’s to say: “ I feel, I think, so I shoot.”

KATALIN KLECZ

United States www.katalinklecz.com My inspiration comes from nature and its playfulness, which I strive to capture. Going with the flow of lines and dots, I rely on our desires for beauty.

Keeping the raw white between the lines establishes a dream and suggests a notion of calmness and safety. Being spontaneous in the moment provides me with many opportunities for happy “accidents” which often become an important part of the whole painting.

KELLIANNE O’BRIEN United States www.colouriste.com

Kellianne O’Brien’s abstract paintings are born of a spirituality which derives from overcoming a very difficult past. Her large colorful paintings express not only the creative spirit that works within her, but also reflect the divine spirit that animates all life. A deeply spiritual person, Kellianne views creating art as an expression of her spiritual passion. Viewing her art has been likened to the experience of “being in a cathedral.”

Conception is established from motion, energy, and research. Taking abstraction from its genesis as waves of magnified light run across the canvas bending forms, textures.

MARIA LUISA PFLUCKER United States www.artbymarialuisa.com

I like to improvise, to paint what is unexpected, although I preserve the essence of my realism.

MARISSA CALBET

Spain www.marissacalbet.com Marissa comes to a slow destructuring of the forms discovering sailboats hidden in the fog, lakes with thier atmosphere. We can see a word that seems to peep out from a light and enveloping fog ... with a softness wich produces a calm interior, inviting thespectator to go deep into a simultaneously real and imaginary word ... in the end wrapping itself around you.

MICHAEL FRANCIS RYAN United States www.michaelfrancisryan.com

My body of work represents a physical structuring of spirituality. A search for balance within our consciousness and journey to clarity, emptiness and inner peace. Included here are contemporary digital photographs of banal objects of human consumption, whose beauty comes to light in the stillness of white space. Captured in the now moment.

NAVEEN SHAKIL

United States www.naveenshakil.com The concept of presence/disintegration of the human existence plays a pivotal theme in my art. Exploring/evaluating my body’s reaction to the stimulus of my emotional state, to bind this to a more metaphysical visualisation.

‘Catharsis’ is my translation of the crisis of ‘self’ into the language of figurative realism; creating a dialogue between this realism into surrealism while fusing it with elements of geometry to create a spacial tension.

NICK BYER

United States www.nickbyer.com “Abstract art is not about doing its about being. It is not part of cognitive reasoning, it’s a new limitless experience.” My paintings are inspired by people nature and life’s journey. The organic forms shapes and energy I observe fuel my subconscious and its spirit is manifested in my art. I work very spontaneous and capture the essence of my subjects then over time, apply many layers on my work giving it a very authentic timeless feel. I like for the viewer to be drawn in and make an emotional connection. Overall my art is a celebration of life.

PATRICK BACHIAN France www.saatchiart.com/pb

My approach is oriented towards a permanent exploration of compositions of colored geometric shapes, which initially are structured and then deliberately sowewhat distorted, giving the illusion, and by an instinctive gesture, of a free and informal abstract expression.

Sanna Maria Paananen’s paintings are modern day allegorical figures, dealing with issues like being an artist, being female and how to view femininity.

Paananen’s paintings are mainly done in oils with a limited palette, but mixed with other types of paint and collage materials to create contrasts in an otherwise subdued manner of painting.

She also works collaboratively with the painter Tero Ulvila, mixing her representational style with his abstract.

Raised in Los Angeles, California and Mexico, my BA Degree is from the University of Washington.

My artwork is reminiscent of movie stills, moments frozen in time, engaging the viewer in the narrative. Fascinated with the human form, texture of hair, and the mixing of color, my work focuses on bold tones and interlocking shapes, where the negative and positive spaces, based upon values of light and dark, converge.

The frozen emotion is the primary objective, since she sees the art of photographing as an opportunity to freeze unique moments. Her relationship with the characters portrayed, is an attempt to extract difficult emotions to show when someone is observed directly, but are within each person.

The multimedia Installation Ultraviolet work followed his stage design that was created for a scene in the Broadway musical “Guys and Dolls” - Big Jule’s New York Sewer Casino.
