Paintings by Federico Infante

Federico Infante born in Santiago, Chile in 1982 works predominantly in the medium of painting. Federico received his BFA from Finis Terrae University (Santiago, Chile) in 2002 and graduated in 2013 with his MFA in Illustration from the School of Visual Arts in New York. He is currently living and working in New York.

Each of my paintings is deeply unique and emerges through its own process. I start with an expressive act of covering the canvas with several layers of acrylic paint and then scratching it off. I repeat this process many times. I do not plan my images in advance and try to stay present and as detached as possible from the result. In doing this I am able to express my unconscious mind, the part of me that has not been processed by logic. I then react to this abstract and expressive atmosphere, by searching for the elements that have emerged, possibly in pockets of light, or the foundations of a landscape. In this way each painting shows me its singular identity…

Jade Mere

Jade’s animals, mostly predators from the canine and feline families, convey both a sense of strength and ferocity as well as a frail, almost lonely side. They wander through the night by themselves but have a light to them, or clearly warn us to stay away. Jade’s art skillfully merges classic plays of light and shadow with a modern digital painting style.

Illustrations by Jean “Moebius” Giraud

Jean Giraud (1938 - 2012) was a French artist, cartoonist and writer who worked in the Franco-Belgian bandes dessinĂ©es (comics) tradition. Giraud garnered worldwide acclaim predominantly under the pseudonym Moebius and to a lesser extent Gir.  His most famous works include the series Blueberry, created with writer Jean-Michel Charlier, featuring one of the first anti-heroes in Western comics. As Moebius, he created a wide range of science fiction and fantasy comics in a highly imaginative, surreal, almost abstract style. Moebius also contributed storyboards and concept designs to numerous science fiction and fantasy films, such as Alien, Tron, The Fifth Element and The Abyss. Giraud died in Paris, on 10 March 2012, aged 73, after a long battle with cancer.

Paintings by Stev'nn Hall

Stev'nn Hall is a Toronto-based, contemporary mixed media artist. He studied film, painting and photography at Concordia University in Montreal and continues to draw influences from these disciplines.

In his current work, Stev’nn returns to his roots with a photography & mixed media landscape series. These paint splattered enlargements depict the farmhouses, roads and big skies of his childhood and explores the boundary between photography and painting. The images are filled with the dualistic wonder of a young mind, which in Hall’s case depict an enchantment with nature’s vastness and the threat of its power and unknown transformative character. The images tread the fragile boundary between boyhood and imagined adulthood. Lost in the comfort of innocence but gripped by the fear of the oncoming adult world exploring the realms of nature and awareness as both magical and menacing via stevnnhall.com
