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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Margaretha Gubernale was looking for a way of representation with which she could harmoniously bring together physical and spiritual ideas in a figurative and symbolic form. With this style she allows the message of her metaphysical parables to be expanded beyond all limits. To do this, she simultaneously uses surrealistic and abstract as well as figurative elements to connect everything on earth with heaven.
This artist’s painting is rooted in an inner quest, at the crossroads of art and the sacred. He explores an intimate form of the sacred, accessible to all, far from dogma and close to consciousness. Inspired by traditions such as Taoism, Buddhism, Alchemy, and Kabbalah, he paints with or without sketches, after a moment of meditation, allowing his consciousness to express itself through universal forms and symbols.
There is magic and discovery in stepping back and seeing what has been created as it happens. There is a zen like meditation going on as the work progresses building up toward a vague vision stroke by stroke. Stepping back and observing at a distance reveals a vision that echos and is often more interesting on several levels than the image once only seen in the mind.
The recent work of Anthony Emerton affirms the enduring relevance of abstraction as a site of thought, ethics, and lived experience. The paintings produced since 2021 do not function as a late stylistic turn or a retreat into formalism, but as the consolidation of a language patiently earned. They stand as the outcome of a long engagement with form across media, across decades, and across interruption. What gives these works their quiet authority is not innovation in the sense of rupture, but coherence sustained over time.

CARMEN RIEGER (IRIS) was born in Romania and has been living in Austria for many years. A graduate of the Faculty of Industrial Design she has worked for many years as a furniture designer. Since 2018 she has experienced a whole new style inspired by the organic forms that fluids create in their movement. She called this new style "IRIS-Fluidism".
Annette Tan’s work stands as a quiet but enduring affirmation of painting’s relevance in the present moment. Her art does not seek to compete with spectacle or conceptual complexity, nor does it rely on rhetorical gestures to assert its significance. Instead, it returns to the essential conditions of vision: the encounter between light, color, atmosphere, and the living world. Through landscapes, still lifes, and floral compositions, she constructs a visual language grounded in patience, devotion, and attentive observation. Each canvas becomes a space of reflection, where the ordinary is gently elevated into the realm of the poetic.
