My life as an artist started when I was very young while I was growing up as a child in Madrid. The many museums and galleries I was exposed to early on would begin to fuel the artistic fire that was beginning to rage inside of me.

I was 5 when I picked up a paint brush for the first time.
Two years later I was having private shows at our home in Houston where my moms friends would come and buy my work. Though I was born in TX I would grow up living in both Houston and Madrid until my late teens. As I went through different periods of my life my influences would change.

Now I feel when I'm beginning a new work I pull from bits and pieces from my experiences and other works of art that have moved me in some way to inspire me. This is the fascinating moment you start to feel the body of work speak to you.

Troy Simmons is a self-taught sculptor who works with a variety of material, including concrete, construction debris, steel, and aluminum. His sculptures are experiments with color, material, and structure.

Simmonsʼ inspirations are drawn from his childhood and explorations through the piney woods of East Texas. There he found a parallel between his experiences in the neighborhoods of Houston and the destructive growth patterns of the plant, Berchemia Scandens. This encounter was the catalyst that sparked Simmonsʼ ongoing interest in art, architecture, and nature. Simmonsʼ began salvaging sections of buildings and homes slated for demolition and creating sculptures that would preserve at least a part of the quickly fading pasts by symbolizing the vibrancy of the areasʼ diverse cultures.

“Giving the piece a role in dictating its final form. This process provokes continuous curiosity for me and the audience, urging us to look past the exterior, in search for whatʼs beneath the surface.”

Alejandro Vigilante is a Miami-based multimedia painter who is in the process of developing a new strain of Neo-Pop art, loosely titled "i-Pop" or sometimes referred to as "iArt". Creating a new media reflecting the instant information exchange and image dilution made possible by the popularity of social networking sites Facebook and Twitter, Vigilante seeks to advance the critical role of these online worlds in the physical bodies of artworks.

Vigilante began his artistic career as a muralist, having worked with filmmaker Oliver Stone in designing work for his film "Any Given Sunday", the Jackson Memorial Hospital's United Foundation for AIDS, and Tiffany & Company's 2nd floor jewelry salon in New York City.

Claudio Roncoli was born in Buenos Aires, 1971. He is Professor of Drawing and Painting graduate of the National School of Fine Arts Prilidiano Pueyrredón” (1995). By his own definition is primarily: an interventionist.

In his latest creations, incorporates elements of advertising, cartoon, graphic design and collage, weaving them with resources such as imaging or re-photograph. Using a special technique and without abandoning his wry humor and scathing, through what he calls the “constant balance of life”, the juxtaposition of images and bright colors using the viewer moves to a “brave new world”.

He has had numerous group and solo exhibitions locally and internationally and has participated in Scope Miami, ArteBA, Just Mad MIA, ArtBo and various cultural centers and museums.

Dicò, the artistic name of Enrico Di Nicolantonio, is one of the most disruptive and original artists of the Italian and international scene and that today represents one of the most innovative artistic manifestations of the Neo-Pop.

Explosive and energetic works, a personal style focused on methacrylate combustion, in one word: expressive force. It is the reaction caused by the flame of a lighter, in the direction of a slab of plexiglass, to give rise to the awareness that in the fire can find the energy to devote himself to painting with a new look. Emotions and sensations are expressed on canvas through the commingling of different elements. Every work of art has plastic in its DNA, a material that changes but at the same time retains remembrance and memory.

Iʼve had a passion for art for as long as I can remember.

While growing up, I spent warm summer days in my grandfatherʼs woodworking shop learning valuable lessons. He was a skilled engraver who had a meticulous attention to detail and a great knowledge about different tools and techniques.

In 2000, I started working with a nationally recognized glass artist doing stained glass restorations and kiln formed glass. For the next 17 years, we collaborated and created countless pieces of glass art. During this time, I also explored working with stone and the possibilities of concrete casting. Recently, I set up my own studio where I am thrilled to create new pieces of glass art. I enjoy the creative process, seeing an idea come to life. While my pieces have a similar shape, no two pieces have the same pattern which makes every piece unique.

Lina Condes was born in Cherkassy, Ukraine in 1988. As an artist of a new generation, Lina Condes incorporates principles of bionic architecture and design into her work. Her sculptures reflect the emptiness and anonymity of common actions that have no attachment to color, creed, gender, religion, language or sexual orientation. They are hysterically self-aware and shameless in their straightforward crudity. Condes render her work via computer technology, but the end result is far from mechanized. She presents her figures as nameless, featureless entities performing a physical act that only living beings can observe and appreciate. Solo presentations of her work have been held at the M17 Contemporary Art Center and in the Trade Chamber of Ukraine in Kiev. In 2016, Lina Condes was awarded on “IEAA Best of International Emerging Artist Award” in Dubai (UAE). In 2017, Condes presented her solo project “Extraterrestrial Odyssey” at the Venice Biennale.

Born in Denver in 1972, Michael Dowling spent much of his early life as a typical kid apart from being an obsessive drawer. It wasnʼt until the age of 25, and after several years studying various subjects as well as working in many fields, that Michael started painting.
