As a mixed media Artist the process of mono printing, painting and photo manipulation sustains Anum Hashmi’s studio practice. Mimicking the world she documents, on it’s ever changing journey as buildings, nature and people and their communities evolve and re-purpose. Collections of photographs, sketches and maps, take life in a diverse series of mixed media pieces, engaging in a meditative cycle of layering manipulating , rephotographing and then transforming into a digital mixed medium onto fabrics or unconventional materials. They’re layered to merge within its own time capsule in an attempt to capture nature, time, and changing spaces.
In the pursuit to beautify the mundane facades of everyday life, she addresses socio economical issues that displaces people along with their communities. As a british Pakistani, her fascination lies with the idea of preserving cultural traditions and practices from heritage ,migration and faith narratives, in particular the Indian sub continent from the eye of a second generation immigrant. Anum seeks to evoke and promote a sense of unity and ethnic enrichment when people of different faith and cultures interact and intertwine based on their social positions in society, whilst still giving a voice to the under represented and relay their stories.
Lily Mixe is a graphic artist originating from Paris who has now based herself within the creative hot bed of London, UK.
Lily?s artwork moves from paper and canvas, found objects and onto the surface of walls in the street.
At the centre of the work is Nature and in particular the Ocean. The subjects are otherworldly, aliens from our own planet. Specimens that offer reminders of how beautiful and complex life on Earth can be and how much of our own planet is unknown and undiscovered.
Inspired by numerous diving expeditions, and hundreds of notebooks and studies of animals and plants, the work is both familiar and unusual. Lily states, ?The work examines life under the surface, the incredible unseen, silent beings we take for granted. I want to give a visual voice to the natural world. I want to celebrate nature in the same way we value precious stones and rare artefacts, I place nature as the highest currency on planet earth?
Lily?s work mutates. It starts as a sketch, it builds and becomes a form, filling and layering textures and patterns that give it a life of its own. The art lives in books, on paper, found objects and ultimately become fully realised when added to the landscape; pasted to bricks and cement, continuing to change over time, changing with the weather, with plants, pollution, graffiti.
The work really starts to take shape once lily walks away. Making the art is only half of the process, placement of the piece is key to its completion, the transient and brutal spirit of nature frames the work, pasting drawings to a wall is an offering, and a sacrifice, an experiment, to see the drawings grow, change, and often be destroyed by the environment and time.
Professional expressionist artist from Ukraine. I have been in the creative field for 20 years. During this time, I founded my own art gallery and drawing school, sold paintings in Europe, Canada and USA.
Martin's practice reflects a lifelong fascination with a non-dualistic conception of the world, which both feeds and is informed by his interest in Buddhism, where states considered to be binary opposites can co-exist in the same time and place. The heightened sense of reality as encountered in dreams and moments of clarity is at the core of his work. His pursuit of photography, video and timbre-based electronic music can be traced back to his school days.
Photomontage and music has been the basis of much of his recent practice, but he employs whichever medium he finds most appropriate for a given project, and works include sculpture, assemblage, and chocolates moulded from his own body. He performs and records under the name "Flooded Access", and in the audio/visual project "on&off"
