Spallanzani: there are two doctors in a white and a red suit. ISS - Higher Institute of Health, which well in this 2020 we began to know, reading the medical report, of the state of the Covid 19. It’s a work of this quarantine that as an artist I have a duty to leave to history. New Era: 2020 the year when everything changed, the point of no return. We are all facing radical change in the world. This is the time to decide where to stay as a human being, we can choose to live here on earth or look for a new place to call home. |

Analia Adorni, “Delicious nature”. Mixed medium on hardboard. 70x90 cm.2019
MY artworks explore the transformation in nature/culture. The ambiguity and the fine limits in the relationships nature/culture. Both, nature and culture are in continue transformation. The movements in nature spaces and landscapes depends of people’s activities, and people’s activities depend of the movements in nature (For example in this times of Covid: human activities are in dependence of natural events.)

Mark James Nicholls. ‘Cornish Superhero’- collage and gouache on paper, 36cm x 36cm.
Is this a time for superheroes? If so what should our contemporary superheroes look like? Not wearing a cape that’s for sure. This second-hand scrapbook superhero seems to suit our times, just as the piece itself is a collage of found and out of context images. He’s got Rembrandt’s nose, but there’s a smart phone ready for a selfie. Is the scallop face mask something to hide behind, or a death mask skull. Fatboy, the Cornish superhero might not be fit for purpose but he does seem fit for the times. --- Mark James Nicholls.
Elisa Buscemi- Sicilian Superstitions – Bread
One of a series of three Sicilian Superstitions that recall on my heritage. “Turning the bread upside down at the table is like turning your back on Jesus” – This superstition varies from province to province and family to family. In mine, one could not leave the bread upside down because it would be like keeping the face of Jesus down – as disrespectful as it gets. |
Peter Charalambides. Outrance 1, 40cm x 30cm & Outrance 2, 40cm x 40cm
Pen, Acrylic and Spray Paint on canvas Outrance Series is based on the exploration of the media, with particular attention on the portrayal of men and women within the realm of advertising. The piece also explores the concept of consumerism and the need to aspire and own. This is namely focused on the realms of high-end fashion and the perfumery sector, where the contrast between real life and that ‘aspirational’ life is at its most extreme. |
Scroll down - swipe right - swipe left - scroll up; our unfiltered social media feeds present “Influencer”. A fabrication of classic and ephemeral images. A fragmented, torn-up style icon in which Star Wars characters peer out from a cut-up Warhol’s Marilyn. A bright but empty light that no moth can resist. In a locked-down world of confused references, the lives of others become our window on reality and we become the influenced, randomly following the influencer. Time to “unfollow”? --Mark James Nicholls
