“Everything takes place through the assumption of a cultural background with special references to Renaissance, without any Mannerist indulgence, and with the intention of a dual lesson: the newfound functionality of constructive system -lines and volumes- in the exception of a temporalization of space and the necessary reference to the real.” —Luigi Maria De Rubeis
“I believe everything is art and everyone is an artist, because we are the creators of our world. I hope to inspire people to make their world a more beautiful place.” — Rachel Carpenter
“My work explores the relationship between nature and man-made environment, through a process that involves translating Google maps images to the language of abstract painting. This is an attempt to provoke the viewer into reflecting on the work´s formal structures, and reconsidering their very own notions of perception.” — Eduardo Verdecia
“I’m interested in relationships to the natural world. We tend to revere and belittle nature in the same way that a child both monumentalizes and objectifies a toy. My work is a reflection of these sentiments.” — Sarah Edwards
“When I paint, I’m expressing those places in my mind where words would fall short. When I can visualize those places in my mind, I understand myself better. When everyone can look at those ideas together and share them, we understand each other better. I can’t think of a better reason to be a painter.” — Jamison R Smith
“The decisions we make for our avatars reflect our perceptions of ourselves and the opinions we have of the world around us.” — Nathaniel St. Amour
“In a general sense my works are concerned with the understanding of the human condition. They do not sentimentalize but speak of the human measure and the human condition. I ask the question “who am I and where am I going?” — Joyce Ellen Weinstein
“Art is almost as much about the struggle it took to create it than any other implied meaning. That’s the burden of creativity.” — Joe Castro
