Kathrin Longhurst
Body and Mind III. 2022
Kathrin Longhurst’s visual language collides with the starting point of her own journey, as a child of the cold-war era, who has been to both sides of the iron-curtain. The contrast between war-propaganda imagery and glamorous promises of the other side of the wall, have been the inspirations of her early works. Longhurst reconsidered war propaganda aesthetics with ‘flying’ female warriors, in place of fearsome male figures of power. Her early works aim to bend the visual paradigm of men and women at war, imposed by the patriarchal power structures of the past. Longhurst’s initial approach is self-observational, rewriting the recent history to empower the idea of a gender-equal future.

Sergio Gomez
Singular Reverence, 2022
Sergio Gomez is known for his large scale figurative abstraction paintings and drawings which focus on the cycles of life. His life size figures are created in series and based on a specific theme or idea. He  depicts the human form as a silhouette, aura, shadow or trace of his own body. Gomez’s multiple textures, drips, splashes, patterns and vibrant colors honor flesh and physicality while his alluded figures celebrate humanity and spirituality. Besides his ongoing cycles of life series, his paintings occasionally explore social and political, and contemporary issues.

Kathrin Longhurst
Skywards Bound, 2022
Kathrin Longhurst's high-realist, figurative painting practice intentionally transforms difficult encounters of oppression and adversity into powerful and positive messages of hope and change. Having grown up in former communist East Germany, Longhurst's family escaped to Sweden when she was 15. The experience of this displacement, compounded by the jarring contrast between living within a totalitarian regime and that of a Western capitalist democracy was the spark that ignited Longhurst's enduring commitment to issues of social justice and freedom of speech.

Sally Ko
Side by Side
Sally is a Chicago-based artist. Born in Korea, and having grown up in the Chicago area, Sally studied at The Art Institute of Chicago, and The American Academy of Art.



Sally's bold abstract paintings represent a synthesis of her experiences, perspectives, and feelings. Sally chooses the abstract style because, by virtue of its obscurity, it fosters her uninhibited self-exploration and subsequent self-expression. Furthermore, the viewerrs pre-conceptions are thereby mitigated, and the story is communicated via a combination of color, texture, and form.
