"As a contemporary artist, I am challenged by the use of technology in the present day. That is why the materiality of my work focuses on the use of various technological elements, reinterpreted and given new meaning. Through these elements, I attempt to construct, in conjunction with others, a narrative distinct from the one that new technologies and their uses have accustomed us to.
I like to say that my intention as an artist is to move towards a pixelated embrace in a technologically advanced present."
PATRICIA CANINO
Patricia Canino is a contemporary artist who experiments the photographic medium both in its ability to create meaning and in its materiality. By using a cross-section of techniques to liberate herself from them, she creates unprecedented forms that reveal the extent of her reflections. She uses photography and its tools as means to achieve aesthetic experiences that simultaneously serve as experiences of distancing from reality, constantly seeking the gap between our perception of the world as we see it and how it presents itself.
DENISE O'FLYNN
Denice is driven by the sense of well-being that comes from being in nature and with finding myself absorbed in creating. Her artwork, using acrylic paint, printing and collage, is a reflection of joy, peace and a deep connection to nature. Immersed in the process, she finds a meditative space where creativity becomes a path to healing and self-discovery. Through colour, texture, and movement, she expresses the wholeness of mind, body and soul. Denice hopes that her work can enable others to feel the joy and connection that she strives to express.
NORA MAUROY
Nora Mauroy (b. 1995) is a Norwegian artist based between Brussels and Oslo. Working across performance, film, photography, text and sculpture she examines themes of digital staging, intimacy and female stereotypes. Through the repetition of her own image she explores the performative nature of contemporary portraiture.
The last two years she has mainly focused on the trope of women and cats, particularly surrounding women in their late twenties and early thirties who are single, childless, and choose to live with pets. This research stems from a longing to understand attachment, relationships, and desire through a female gaze.
As an elongation of this research she’s at bEam arts to document the feline company of the streets in Thessaloniki, and their daily lives beyond the boundaries of a single household.
