Themes such as technology, architecture, retro aesthetics and interior design are all frequently found throughout my artwork. I aim to pull the viewer into my imaginary world with realistic perspective and scale, combined with my signature color palette and detailed outlines.

Italian artist based in Barcelona Antonella Montes works under Lantomo moniker. She studied architecture in Italy, in Rome and Genoa; then moves to Spain, specialising in scenography and exhibition design. Just a few years ago, since 2010, Lantomo started to dedicate herself exclusively to painting, and her passion has definitely become a job. And in this journey, her stay of almost two years in Beijing, China, have left an indelible trace. Her drawings have become more accurate and detailed, her only colours the black and white, with touches of red, and the drawn faces have come to have Asian features.
The graphite portraits I create are almost realistic, suspended in a personal universe between realism and vision, but Im not interested in virtuous details, I look for the representation of the emotions of my subjects.
Drawing has always been present in my life, like a way of expressing myself. My portraits embody a feeling of isolation and introspection, involved in silence. Memory, fears and loneliness in this society are the subjects that obsess me.
I try to bring to the surface all traces of emotions behind a gaze.

In 2011 I made a piece called "Ancient Area Network" which depicts a LAN Party in an old building that wasn't anything like the half-timbered house I lived in for many years, but it was my attempt to capture the atmosphere and chaos these gatherings had. I started this cycle 10 years ago with a depiction of a LAN Party and I'm closing it with another. This time with more delpherian touches to it. Mr. Wanderer is back with a whole duffle bag full of connectivity issues.
When I was 14, the most common LAN theme we had were birthday and weekend LANs that would go for two days and were never attended by more than 8 people. There was one LAN hosted by a student committee at my Highschool with roughly 130 people attending but that was never the norm for
Tye Martinez is a multidisciplinary artist currently based out of Bellingham, WA. Focusing on the connection between emotions and various art forms, Tye aims to mend the preconceived notion that feeling different is not normal. Speaking of all emotions should not be considered taboo, and art can be such an excellent gateway to help normalise what its like to feel down or different.

It started in early 2015. As it usually happens with artists, Nick had dozens of ideas, a huge inspiration and motivation, but still had to go to his regular job.
The salvation came in the form of lentils, unexpectedly. He has been scrolling his Instagram feed and saw a weird, but remotely familiar art piece - lenticular print. And the strongest insight has happened. From this point, Fraktality Big Journey took its start. Lenticular technology has become the basic Fraktality Team feature. Sure thing, it allows to achieve the truly psychedelic and mind blowing visual effect in real life, since the artists can insert up to 50 frames of animation under the special plastic. The core idea is to create harmless visual psychedelics. Some people say Fraktality art may even provoke an epileptic seizure, so strong its influence on the peoples mind. And we cant disagree.
Fraktality is a living organism, which is spread all around the world, amazing partnerships with such persons as Eddie Alcazar, Maalavidaa, Brizbazaar,Salvi Droid, Ivimoart, Youhodler, UnityNetwork, Brockhofer, Marwan Shahin, Burgandy Viscosi, StickerSavage, Sid Wilson from Slipknot,Samuel Farrand, Bangeroo, Mifsudvision, Alexsmeat,Bucwah,Callifinkart also artists who has been successfully taught to work in lenticular technology.

French self-taught artist David Bayo is based in Strasbourg and specialised in highly detailed drawings rendered in ink, mostly using the Stippling technique. It is a drawing technique in which areas of light and shadow are created using nothing but dots. Painstakingly and meticulously!

@moodydarkroom
The face behind the alias of moodydarkroom is photographer and artist Oswaldo Cepeda. Originally from a small town in Wisconsin, Oswaldo decided to pursue his passion of art and felt that in order to do so properly, he needed to be in a new environment. Given the sprawling hub of opportunity that Southern California offers, Oswaldo decided to move to San Diego, where he is now based out of and calls home.
Oswaldos main focus is portraiture; however, his portfolio also showcases his passion for digital art. His portrait work is unique, featuring the abstract lighting techniques that he is widely known for. This ultimately sets his work apart from typical portraiture, often being described as other worldly, ethereal, and poignantly emotional. He uses his work to convey feelings that cannot be put into words and strives to demonstrate the raw emotions of human nature.

Valencia-based duo Anna Dev'is and Daniel Rueda add a playful twist to mundane settings and architectural backdrops. Whether flaring a skirt into a wide, cheesy grin, posing to prop up a facades stripes, or gripping the tail of a balloon that looks like a tethered sun, their minimal compositions turn geometric elements and open spaces into theatrical sets ripe with humor and joy. - via Colossal

By combining their spatial awareness and their artistic vision, primarily based on simple shapes and bold patterns, they have succeeded in establishing magnetic and joyful narratives that smartly suggest both the nature of human relations and the fascination with the urban environment.

Numerous visits to France since 1995 had a huge impact on Alexis Olin's art. Since then, painting, music, photography, and fashion have become connected in all the projects to which he relates. Despite the variety of activities, brushes with canvas and computer with digital pen remain a priority. The seven-year edition of the K9 comic book magazine and the fascination with the Franco-Belgian School of graphic novels form the basis for writing paintings and illustrations. Later, the work of the Renaissance, as well as contemporary artists from Europe and Asia, became the inspiration. Creating the M'etrique brand gives the ability to constantly display his paintings on clothing fabrics, using them as canvases, thus taking the work outside the walls of the studio and gallery. An approach to all activities like NFT art is the key to Alexis.

The symbolic meaning of crossroads deals with choice, a twist of fate that establishes the preordained path in life. It is a place where space and time intertwine.

Gregory Orekhovs Crossroads, made of polycarbonate and painted over with marking paint, is a crossing across the river, among fields which seemingly have no end. This land art object is located in the Moscow region, in the area of Nikolina Gora. With this work, the artist raises the question of social, ethical and environmental behaviour.
The 21st century has faced itself with acute problems of capital constructions, which contradicts the basic principles of urbanism and summons a lot of controversy and discontent among local residents. In pursuit of non-ecological development of the economy, the authorities allow more and more ground to be built upon, the nature of which is illegally destroyed for the purpose of self-gain without any clarity or thought.

Italian sculptor Peter Demetz masterfully creates life-sized of wooden scenes that challenge the spectators perception with their spatial unfolding and seduce with their illusion as well as with their photographic quality of represented world
The works of Demetz seem to be still frames of a serial, which needs to be discovered and of which the artist anticipates only some clues; not recognizable stories, but attitudes, something in a potential state, which attends to be resolved into a narrative.

Self-taught and self-starting American contemporary artist Sophie Sturdevant focuses on the woman's body in her work and art, interpreting her as strong in her vulnerability and beautiful in her femininity through abstract figuration. A womans beauty is like nothing the world has ever seen; she has a unique ability to be strong, but kind, and powerful, but soft, simultaneously, Sophie states on her website

Photographer Titus Poplawski uses an analogue camera to capture eerie and unsettling portraits of people, and his works are truly magical
Its not about the advanced technical challenges. Its more about letting the film influence the final artistic result of the picture. I focus on narrative photography, which is a metaphor that tells about human beings. Thus a human being is the main subject of my photos

A new reality
by Maxim Zhestkov
To celebrate the reveal of the new all-electric BMW i4, BMW invited Russian media artist Maxim Zhestkov to freely interpret the new vehicle, and create a series of digital artworks using the BMW i4 design and technology as his inspiration. The result is a series that is as mesmerising as it is unique.
I started out studying traditional architecture, but somewhere down the road I came to realise that the 3D software we used for mapping and modelling had so much more potential. It felt like it was being used to create the final product or output, and then the process was seen as over. It was very finite, and it just didnt sit right with me. But then I saw that, in fact, the software, if I found a way to use it right, could become much more. It could be used to discover and experiment in ways that didnt have a goal in itself. It could be the way itself; the means to explore .something new and unexpected.
Zhestkov describes this realisation as a process of personal and creative liberation. By plugging into the ever-evolving and ever more advanced visualisation and rendering software he had available, he was able to explore spatiality, physics, visuals and mathematics in a way he hadnt thought possible. He quickly became hooked.

From polyester, nylon, and cotton, Japanese artist and designer Mariko Kusumoto fabricates sculptural forms that resemble the creatures and everyday objects she finds most fascinating. She uses a proprietary heat-setting technique to mold the ubiquitous materials into undulating ripples, honeycomb poufs, and even tiny schools of fish that are presented in elegant and fanciful contexts. Whether a pastel coral reef or a fantastical bracelet filled with mushrooms, rosettes, and minuscule bicycles, Kusumotos body of work, which includes standalone objects and wearables, uses the ethereal qualities of the translucent fibers to make even the banalest forms appear like theyre part of a dream. - via @Colossal

Nathaniel Rackowe (b. 1975)
MTArt Agency is extremely proud to announce that British visual artist Nathaniel Rackowe, world-renowned by his large-scale urban referenced structures and light sculptures, is now an MTArt Agency signed artist.
Rackowes work is designed to recreate the experience of navigating the city around us. His works are abstracted impressions of today's metropolitan experience evoked through the vicissitudes of light as it fluctuates throughout the city. Influenced by Modernism, film and video games, Rackowe uses the mass-manufactured derivative products of the modernist era - glass, corrugated plastics, concrete, scaffolding, breeze blocks and strip lights - to recreate the collective experience and visual sensations of urban contemporary life, while incorporating a deeply personal emotional response to flowing through built space.
GP04
The second semester of 2021 is lined up with exciting projects for Rackowe: used to working in the public sphere, the artist has a new commission for the Canary Wharf outdoor sculpture exhibition with Brooke Bennington, On the Other Hand, from the 26th of August to the 12th of November 2021. The show will explore notions of revival and value, bringing together a group of contemporary sculptors who incorporate - or use as their starting point - found and human-made objects.
Later in the year, Nathaniel will exhibit new works with FOLD Gallery, the London-based gallery bringing UK based and international artists together. Also this year, the Art Design Lebanon will include one of Rackowes works for a group show in Beirut. And in November from the 10th to the 14th, the Lichtfestival Gent will include an outdoor light installation from the new MTArt Agency artist.
Pathfinding London
Its really exciting to be joining the MTArt Agency roster of artists. Marine and her team have a unique approach to supporting and growing the artist, while finding wide ranging ways to bring their work to the public eye. The breath of their engagement perfectly meshes with my diverse art practice, with so many fascinating ideas for where this new collaboration may lead.
