PARTICIPATING ARTISTS:
Nitin Vadukul The Art of War , comprises of a series of photographs which pertain to the sinister and surreal world of the
warrior. In these photographs we see the warrior or the solider depicted in surreal landscapes and interiors removed from battle
and surrounded by a powerful visual canvas which evokes a dream like state in which the subject becomes almost poetic and
enticing, as if surrounded by a stealth like cloak.
Laura H Penalver The aggressiveness of the colour red is overwhelming: it can make us think about red as life,the violent red or
red death among other possibilities. Threatening red, too much pressure on a defenceless body. The penetrating look of
strawberry that wounds, the fall. Intimate feelings. Let feelings talk, through the image, through the colour!
Ines Medina http://www.inesmedina.com As an artist, I started with a formal investigation, knowledge and the deconstruction of each plastic formal element, which are
included in an image–painting-until I reached the conclusion that is the dot, with its negative and positive qualities, the unique formal plastic
element utterly necessary to construct an image. The second part of my artistic research, as a female artist, was mental-organic, to deconstruct
the unilateral masculine bias, reaching the conclusion that is the seduction and ambition of power, the core of human conflict. It is why I
believe in the vital importance of considering The Unified Being, with its masculinity and femininity qualities within, to minimize the fatal
consecuences of the opposites -war.
Mark Orange My work uses a range of media, including audio, film, photography, and digital animation to explore
unpredictable narrative paths through architectural space. Recent projects have included a number of pieces that investigate
'open 24 hours' as an abstracting ideological account of the modern city, interviews with architects presented as site-specific
FM radiobroadcasts, and a trilogy of 16mm films that unfold a series of micro- dramas around architectural sites in New
York City
Matthew Riva The series Coupled Pulse is a journey to join the deeper sentiments of Humanity with Nature as a means to
define where we were, where we are, and where we are going as a Race; painting so we come face to face with Nature, with the
sea, the sky, the snow, face to face with Purity and Truth.
Sara H Penalver How many mysteries unravel when you blow on the nose of a cat?
How many mysteries unravel when your eyes become a pair of buttons?
How many mysteries unravel when your mother takes your breast to suckle?
Of all these I have found a conclusionÂ…xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Juan Matos-Capote In “Raga for a telephone call and four paintings,” the artist composed an installation of four paintings he
made during different years and the edited reproduction of a telephone call he often receiveswhich offers him financial freedom
by lowering his credit cardsÂ’ APRs to pay the debts the artist accumulated while making his paintings.
Amadeo Penalver In the magic of representing my ideas, I feel and I give life, with a gesture, with the architecture of an aroma
or with a hallucination of the future. Always with the baggage of my past and the freedom of my dreams.
