Art by Mi Ju
Clustered chunks of separate characters combined into massive and glorious mixed media portraits by artist Mi Ju. ” My work is an improvisation in liminality: between dream and concretized, ancient and contemporary, Korea and the West, ephemeral and eternal, the uncensored and codified. Each character, pattern and energy reflects states of consciousness that are revealed in the creative act, a form of both improvisation and organization wherein the uncensored is working in concert with momentary, yet specific compositional organizations. It is my intention that the work will be a place of meeting between memory, dream and fantasy, and concretized into meaningful visual terms.” – Mi Ju

Sinister by artist Constantinos Chaidalis
A hauntingly gorgeous black and white portrait series created by artist Constantinos Chaidalis using the portraits of children and manipulating them into surreal and symbolic pieces. “Sinister” deals with personal memory and loss. It is a series of cryptic illustrations, deconstruction of the childhood faith in safety and nurturing. The children in each image represent how one reverts to a childhood stance when it comes to death, and the reality of loss. When we face our fears and anxiety, we seldom face those fears as an adult, but more usually as a child, we revert to the lost and bewildered aspect of childhood. – Constantinos Chaidalis See more of Constantinos Chaidalis’s work here See the…
