And minimalism and abstraction is obviously about restraint.” Aron Hill They obtained a BFA in Interdisciplinary Studies from the Alberta College of Art and Design and their MFA from Goldsmiths College, University of London in 2006. They have exhibited across Canada and in Dubai. Hill’s work is held in private and corporate collections.

    Blackheart's Rave, 2019, Collage, Mixed media: Marker, Pencil, Drawing, Acrylic and Watercolour on gessoed shopping bag mounted on archival museum board in a Street Art styled bespoke oak wood frame. , 93.2 x 63.2 . 3.5 centimetres total dimension This Rave Dance club-inspired artwork takes the energy found in New York City's nightlife. Rafael Melendez - July 2022 Rafael Melendez (b.1970, USA) renders motifs from high past art with self-taught experimental techniques to produce an unexpected and highly unique visual language riddled with esoteric symbolism. The figures that inhabit his paintings are born from a desire to understand 'abnormal' worldviews, such as Outsider Art, transgressive fiction, and metaphysics.
