Daehyun Kim
Moonassi
Daehyun Kim’s Moonassi series is his life-time project. He draws to meditate on himself and others. And the others again can use the drawings to contemplate as well.
Karolina Daria Flora
Weaver of umbilical thread
Karolina’s mission is the transmutation of reality, her work far more than mere adornment — she weaves the umbilical thread that reminds us of dimensions we have just forgotten about.
Lieke Romeijn
Always Coming Home
Her heartfelt portraits of mothers and children are imbued with an almost utopian serenity. This same raw, earthy beauty flows through all her creations, whether it’s her vibrant cakes or her drawings made with natural pigments.
Jonathan Zawada
Metamathemagical
On these grounds, all perception is a gamble. A meta-level is always just around the corner, and Zawada’s hyperreal imagery is a vivid glimpse into an expanded perceptual bandwidth.

Half child Half ancient

The Book of Job as an Encounter with the Self

The Quality of Light
Especially the persistent interest in depicting light characterizes the dreamlike atmosphere in the woodblock prints of Hasui Kawase
Ama
Women of the Sea
The term Ama literally means ‘women of the sea’, as women were always the preferred divers in Japan.
Irene Hardwicke Olivieri
Rewilding the Heart
Her paintings speak to us with such a refreshing immediacy, reminding us how wild it is to be alive.
