Thia Path, born in Buenos Aires (Argentina) and active in Piacenza (Italy), is an artist who has transformed color into an identity-driven language and a distinctive expressive force. After a solid background as an architect and educator, and years of research exploring art, matter, and space, her encounter with the work of Mark Rothko marked a decisive turning point: from that moment on, painting became her absolute territory.
My painting is less an act of depiction than one of discovery — an inquiry shaped by a life lived between scientific research and visual art. After four decades in biotechnology, where hypothesis, experimentation, and revision were daily practice, I came to understand that rigor and imagination are not opposites but partners. That understanding underpins my work.
My life and art are based on my own philosophical thoughts and experiences. I am interested in the philosophy of immanence and transcendence on all beings, And this means that I try to focus on the essence of life by establishing core values, and at the same time, sublimate it into my works.
I am a French listed and certified Professional abstract painter practicing in Paris since 2009. Affiliated to the 'Maison des Artistes' and member of ADAGP, I have specialized in symbolical, expressionist, lyrical and atmospheric abstract art.
Billy is a Nigerian, New York - based visual artist whose practice spans oil painting on canvas, soft pastel on paper, ceramics, portraiture, and muralism. His work fuses surrealist sensibilities with scenes drawn from everyday life, creating imagery that oscillates between action, imagination, and lived experience.
Part of my artistic practice involves the tradition of using multiples to form or create art. Where I combine several of the same item to make a cohesive piece. The aim is to create a singular object made from many by taking them out of context and transforming them. The altering of an everyday common object into something other than what they were originally intended for. Utilizing the linear visual aspects of the original item in combination to become a dimensional form and to challenge our perceptions and encourage us to see the beauty and potential in the mundane.
I was born in the lovely city of Paphos in Cyprus and I am a self-taught artist. I studied Business Administration and Hotel Management but I ended working in our family textiles business. At the age of 28 I started creating art as an internal necessity and a way to communicate my worries for the world and express my psychosynthesis at the time of creation. I am continually experimenting with combining strong colours, trying to express strong emotions through colour on my canvases. My work is an exploration of the human essence in its most stripped-back, spiritual form.
Lynne Douglas is a Scottish-based photographic artist working from the Isle of Skye and the outer Hebrides, internationally recognised for her atmospheric photography and large-format seascapes. Her practice moves between representation and abstraction, using long exposure and camera movement to create calming yet moody coastal works that prioritise atmosphere over description. Rather than documenting landscape, she constructs immersive visual experiences rooted in light, duration and emotional resonance.
At the core of my work is a deep sense of feeling, big dreams, and bold expression shaped by the northern landscape and lived life. For me, this hybridity is not primarily a visual strategy but a way of thinking and being in the world. It reflects the tension in which we live.
At heart, both my therapy and collage work emerge from the same impulse, a passion for uplifting the human experience. That impulse has evolved from providing a listening space, to my collages now offering a visual space for reflection. The aesthetic form, my collage, holds space for others’ emotions, as I once held space in therapy.
For me, drawing a line is akin to breath meditation. The process of reaching inner stillness closely parallels my creative practice. The tension and shifting emotions generated by short and long breaths condense into images—unspoken states of sorrow, solitude, or even joy. Rather than constructing form through line, I seek to record the places where thought and emotion briefly came to rest.
Nigel Ryan is a London based photographic artist whose work explores atmosphere, time, and the experience of place. Working primarily with in camera techniques, including multi exposure and long exposure, he creates images that sit between documentation and abstraction.
I am a Hungarian painter dedicated to creating unique, personalized artworks that transform spaces and evoke deep emotions. My artistic journey began with decorative wall painting, which gradually led me to the canvas, where I found my true passion. Each painting I create is not just a visual piece but a deeply personal expression—an artwork that tells a story, recalls memories, and becomes a meaningful part of its owner’s life.
When I allow initial paint strokes to show themselves until an idea emerges, it's not an oscillation between intention and recognition. It's just a starting framework for a painting. Several options may present themselves before I choose one, due to what I believe possesses personal integrity, and what I truly think might look totally ridiculous. Just because I wait for something to strike me visually doesn't mean that it doesn't have to have my approval of what I will accept to work with. Ultimately, what goes down on the painting comes from my hands, my decisions, and my final approval. Finding an inspirational area within the initial strokes of pigment to start painting is simply that... a starting point. Metaphysics can only travel so far in my studio.
Giancarlo De Luca, aka Lachi Lea, was born in Paola (Cs) in 1961. A painter and sculptor, he approached art at a Young age thanks to the presence of his father, also An artist. Endowed with An unprecedented sensitivity, Lachi Lea has developed a reflective language over time.
My current body of work explores the themes of capturing motion and the delicate balance between control and chaos within abstract expressionism. I primarily work in fluid acrylics, employing vibrant color saturation and the inherent unpredictability of the medium to translate fleeting moments of movement into a tangible visual experience.
Majo Portilla’s place in contemporary art history will likely be defined not solely by her stylistic synthesis, nor by her international acclaim, but by her unwavering commitment to connection. In her hands, the canvas is not a boundary. It is a bridge. Through layered pigment and faceless forms, she charts the emotional topography of a world in search of belonging.
Monica Norum is a contemporary painter whose work explores painting as a site of presence, connection, and emotional resonance. Moving fluidly between abstraction and figuration, her paintings emerge through layered processes of intuition, revision, and material dialogue. Rather than illustrating fixed narratives, Norum creates open visual spaces where memory, vulnerability, and shared human experience can unfold. Her practice positions painting as both a perceptual and ethical act—one that invites slow looking, embodied attention, and relational engagement across cultural contexts.
“All of my paintings are ‘Created to Create Myself’, to give myself insight knowledge, courage and power. They represent my inner world of struggles and turmoil to ravel out the influence of the outer world, which I believed was true, but only covered up my true self.
I am not a 'traditional' photographer or painter. My series Identity and Perception pushes the boundaries of photography by combining it with oil paint for all the color, narrative text, and resin surface on wood panels. This creates a unique hybrid that confronts today's individual and societal issues: alienation, loneliness, loss of identity, self-image, and how we view others.
