My work pokes at that uneasy space between structure and entropy — what I like to call “controlled chaos,” because frankly, that’s what life looks like when you take the training wheels off. Every piece is its own little ecosystem, humming along with its own rules, moods, and mischief. I’m fascinated by how order crawls out of disorder, how meaning sneaks in through the cracks when forms, colors, and movements collide like they’ve had too much coffee.
The figures allude to the practice of spirituality, to love of nature and humanity. Dialogue with God expands thought and the senses. The strands of light in my paintings symbolize forces, for example, the sun with its warmth and growth power, and the moon with its effect on water, especially on the sea with its ebb and flow, and on births, since humans are largely composed of water.
Tina Corrales-Mader is an American artist born and raised in Los Angeles, California.
She began her love of visual arts at a very young age mesmerized by Mexican folk art all around her. Growing up, Tina quickly recognized that colors, shapes, forms, music, and creativity is such a basic necessity and she needed to embrace it in any form.
In Will Wilford’s ‘The 11th Hour’, the artist’s exploration of ‘human absence’ – a theme that remains a source of constant exploration – is wholly realised. Long, tapered tree trunks eerily pierce the horizontality of the compositional space. Wilford beautifully renders the distinctive shapes and lines of a palm tree’s trunk in his subtle personification of their non-human form.
Aleksandra Ciążyńska is an artist who knew from a young age that art would be more than just a hobby for her. She was born in 1987 in Poland. Although she is an economist by profession, she found her true path in painting, which she sees as a way to communicate without words. She honed her skills under the tutelage of Professor Paweł Lewandowski-Palle, achieving success in national and international competitions.
I see my art as a living conversation, enriched by diverse readings. The symbolic layers I employ function like a palimpsest: allowing erasure, rewriting, and re-vision. In each context, the work may evoke different myths, memories, or modes of seeing, and this variability is part of its vitality. I trust in the resilience of images to resonate across boundaries, and in the unpredictable dialogue between viewer, culture, and history that keeps the work alive and ever-evolving.
Growing up in Chennai, I was surrounded by rhythm — not just of music or language, but of rituals, festivals, colours, and textures. It’s a city where the ancient coexists effortlessly with the contemporary, and that duality continues to influence my work. The vivid colours of temple architecture, the meditative geometry of kolam designs and the undulating sound of Carnatic music, found their way into my subconscious and now echo in my paintings.
Art is the most profound expression of the human spirit. I am exploring the psychological disjunction in our contemporary life caused by its fast pace and rapid changes. The youth of today have too much information, they struggle to keep their personal and/or cultural identity and try to make sense of reality. Their world has become filtered. The Iris suggests natures beauty, in it’s original form and is a symbol for hope.
When I am out, they’re in nature, following and observing nature I learn again what is proportional, what are the authentic colours. It’s so important to me to do this, gives me objective feedback. More like a test for mixing colours and grasping the essence of the scene Infront of me.
Anastasia Yanchuk is a rising voice in contemporary art. Her mission is clear: to inspire, to empower and to remind us that true beauty is not perfection but presence. In this interview, she invites us into her creative world, where freedom is painted in layers, femininity shines with quiet courage and art becomes a mirror of the soul.
My art is instinctive, unplanned, and gathers some characteristics from each of these artistic movements, but the message I want to convey with it is the element of primary importance to me. In each canvas, I focus on a specific theme, without adding superfluous elements that could confuse the observer. So, I let myself go to creativity, trying to communicate positive messages and true emotions.
My paintings invite viewers into a metaphysical dialogue between light and consciousness. The expressive use of acrylic reflects the essence of life energy, oscillating between bright hues and contemplative forms, and reflects a belief in the dual forces of good and evil that shape human existence. The themes evoke a spiritual undertone.
As a visual artist, my works are not intended for personal enjoyment alone but to explore complex issues of international politics, economics, war and peace, and state and international relations through the language of art. These works are not only part of the international political landscape but also an objective reflection of the current realities of people's lives.
Art affects us directly and strongly. I strive for art to bring people joy, comfort, and positive energy. All my work aims at this. The sea, landscapes, flowers, animals, and people are my favorite subjects and the main objects in my pictures. I love to show the best and most beautiful part of them all.
Can you tell us when you decided to pursue a career as an artist?
I had the enthusiasm for art since I was a child, but when I started painting with acrylics in the mid-90s, I grew the desire to put my messages into pictures and make happy faces. When I was able to sell the first paintings, I wanted to refine my technique and so the next steps came naturally.
I sometimes refer to my artwork and my life as a whole as walking ‘Between Worlds’ I draw and paint what some people can not see in this 3D reality; the dreams, visions and imagination of realities and dimensions beyond this one. The Light Codes are universal symbols, lines and patterns that resonate positive frequencies with the viewer on a cellular level and are directly transmitted in the presence of the painting
I consider my work a meeting point between emotion and reality. In certain moments, dreams and imagination come into play, helping me seek balance between my inner world and the world around me. At the same time, I believe the canvas becomes a kind of story, where the viewer is free to listen and perceive their own feelings and emotions.
Maria Bordeanu was born in Bucharest in 1982 and she has got a MFA degree in Painting from UNARTE Bucharest since 2007. Her artistic interests revolve around photorealistic, figurative and cinematic themes subtly infused with elements of media culture, alongside dystopian elements and post-human visual metaphors.
My name is Kate Huang, I was born in 1983 Kaohsiung City, ROC. In 2011 graduates from the Taipei National University of the Arts Fine arts Creation. Specialties-Graphic Design, Painting (Acrylic, Sketch, Watercolor), Clay, Computer Graphocs. Most of my creations use brain cells as the theme of creation to illustrate the interpersonal relationship between people, and combine the abstract internalization with the external scenery to express the internal and external states.
I approach my work as being open to interpretation. When I am working on a painting would never think about meaning. I will always leave the meaning to the viewer. There is always a push and pull with the canvas. I only do what it tells me to do.
