Hanae Moreno-Niimi is a Japanese-Colombian artist born in Japan in 1994. Each of her portraits are realised in ethereal brushstrokes that shift between identification of the subject and their dissolution into light. Little reference is made to time and space. Full attention is given, instead, to human subjects and the sensory cues that their presence reveal in a flicker of light, a shift in pigmentation or a mood change. Portraits of her self, family members, friends and her own keenness… consider both the lineage and the legacy of her own spiritual, psychological or otherwise personal leanings.
David Horvath is a Romanian artist born in Baia Mare in 1998. His pictorial practice revolves around perceptual depiction, subjective impressions and the chromatic possibilities of ambient light expressed in landscapes and self-portraits. In the body of work presented in ‘till the Sun shines, the artist paints a world in its slow dissolving form. Perceiving various degrees of light as seen through space, he dedicates his paintings to the textural values of natural expanses, bodies of water and local sights that reveal a sense of empathy towards them.
