Carl Gabriel: from mas band to museum

London-based Carnival artist Carl Gabriel has achieved international renown for his large-scale sculptures, lovingly handcrafted through the disappearing art of traditional wire bending. These have been exhibited at the British Library, the Science Museum in London, Ohio State University. Carl's greatest inspiration came through childhood experiences of Carnival in Trinidad.

I am a self-taught artist who has lived in the borough for twenty-two years. I only started painting and drawing in 2013 and have found it to be a liberating experience for me personally.
Blue in Green is a mixed media piece that started with photography that was digitally manipulated, printed onto A1 280 gram paper and then painted on.

My interest is in the play of colour and texture as they revolve around nature and people. I use digital software to re-work sketches, painting and photographic images to explore the play of colour, texture and line that presents itself. It's a multi-layered approach whereby original sketches and photographs may be re-worked, re-painted and then re-worked a number of times till completion of the final image – a process that can take many months. My aim is to delight and surprise the viewer – for them to see and feel an abstraction of the familiar re-presented from a new perspective.

SOC!ETY DANCE ACADEMY

https://www.societydanceacademy.com/

West London based Society Dance Academy was created by a enthusiastic Individual who is determent to create a society passionate about all aspects of Street & Hip Hop dance by providing educational dance training and opportunities for young people to express their talents.

Erduan Xhaferi and a team of creative Mentors and Choreographers aim is to provide creative platforms for young people to express their talents and give young people from all walks of life an opportunity to be inspired.

​We believe dance can be used as a tool to positively change people’s minds and opinions about each other and to become united within the dance culture. Dance itself is a universal language that everybody understands and can relate too, it removes all barriers between individuals and what they want to communicate, It illustrates the development of human culture. Society Dance Academy firmly believes that if we focus on developing the young generation, creatively and socially, it will have an impact on them and others, for a better future.

Dance creates experiences for young people that will allow them to participate in a range of dance forms and styles. As well as providing them with the experience of performing, confidence and opportunities for leadership roles.

Our vision for our students is to provide them with the highest training and give them opportunities to reach their goals by also inspiring them to carry this movement forward into the future, allowing them to become the next generation of Mentors/dancers, choreographers and teachers that continue to create society with dance. We strive to bring out their creativity and teach them to express themselves through movement, but most importantly we want all students to enjoy this experience.

​Society Dance Academy have the experience and knowledge to stand behind their beliefs, with a history of over 10 years of performing, teaching, theatre productions and TV entertainment.

Storybeyondlines
Mandala Artist

Ekta Mody Pathak

Storybeyondlines was conceptualized by myself, aimed at bringing the traditional & spiritual art to the world. To promote art which not only brings joy to people, but also has soothing and transformative effects on ones’ energy, has been a key theme of Storybeyondlines.

A self-taught artist, I have had a deep inclination for art since childhood and have been creating artwork since more than a decade.
Over the years, I realized that I wanted to bring to the world the art that would make someone feel connected to his/her spiritual energy, and therefore my passion for the mandala art grew and I took to her calling to bring forward this artwork to a wider audience. With numerous workshops to my side, and many customized art-works created for my clients, I have been deeply rooted to expressing and bringing forward my art form across borders.

Sometimes I write poetry in response to visual art, sometimes I create art in response to poetry.

A Monument to Summer, 2024. 100% waste: discarded Actimel bottles, leftover buttons, bits, bobs, fruit nets, ringpulls, old business cards and a whole lot of stitching, crocheting and loving on a few layers, 100x100cm.
Ecoartivist, Rubbish Artist

Francesca Busca

https://www.francescabusca.art

As an Eco-artivist, ‘Rubbish artist’ and mosaicist, I pioneer sustainable art and create my artworks entirely out of waste.
Torn between optimism and surrender, haunted by the idea of mankind’s imminent self-destruction, I believe in a future through systemic re-thinking. Every tessera I create is in itself a protest against our disposable lifestyle. I thoroughly enjoy working within the ethical and material limitations involved, working with materials which often take years to gather, and whose legacy I like to extend beyond their mere creation, as the starting point for a continued, multi-faceted narrative through layers of staged photography.
Gesamtkunstwerk, my commitment to sustainability encompasses every aspect of my life, from veganism to renewables, second-hand clothes (…) to not flying.

Ex-City solicitor, I then graduated with distinction at LSoM in 2019, where I also lectured Fabrication. Internationally, I exhibited in 100+ venues, was published in 90+ articles and textbooks, and won 20+ awards.

Founder of Payment in Kind(ness)© and ArtforTrash©, I also run pro-bono art projects on eco-awareness and sustainability.

I am now on a retainer with the Institute of Marine Sciences in Venice, collaborating with the institute and with some prestigious art institutes over the next few years.
