Tony Pharo, an American artist hailing from upstate New York, made a life-altering shift by relocating to California, where he now calls Irvine home. Having embraced sobriety for seven years, he's deeply rooted in California and finds everyday inspiration for his Modern and Contemporary Art. Pharo doesn't fit into traditional categories, seeing his work as part of an unnamed movement, akin to talents like George Condo and George Morton-Clark were later redefined.
His art reflects a boundless freedom, rejecting the confines of contemporary movements. Pharo's paintings, described as expressive and dynamic, defy limits with colours colliding and lines weaving in chaotic yet beautifully nihilistic patterns. Despite this conceptual approach, Pharo believes art should be accessible to all, viewing it as a therapeutic outlet for coping with diagnosed Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) & OCD. Painting offers him a flow state, liberating him from past traumas and beliefs.
Despite his relatively short time in the art world, Pharo has exhibited his work in galleries across two states, showcasing his burgeoning talent and unique artistic vision.

LIFT THE SOUL
By Starsky Brines
Located in New Orleans, LA
STARSKY BRINE’s paintings and drawings captivate audiences with their distinctive style and a recurring theme, the search for the nature of humanity. In his bold works, the artist focuses on characters that are built from a combination of anthropomorphic and zoomorphic features, as well as the appropriation of elements from comics and toys from his childhood.
On the one hand, these characters distort reality to venture into an environment of subcultures and urbanism created by the spontaneous intuition of his strokes and the appropriation of the contemporary iconography. On the other hand, they move within the realm of fantasy. In particular, the animals paired with their human characters evoke associations with fairy tales or comics. They are reminiscent of the world of theatre, in which fantasy and poetry but also comedy often serve as catalysts for the creation of critical meaning.
With his works, Brines often questions the interplay of good and evil against the background of the worldwide socio-political climate. Yet Brines does not interpret his themes as ‘black and white.’ They are complex and nonlinear, with charming disruptions, quite serious and yet full of humor.
Brines is personally influenced by his mother and art historically influenced by Latin American figurative art, the German Neoexpressionism, the Italian Transavantgarde, and the COBRA group. His works oscillate between figuration and abstraction. Brines holds a degree in Fine Art from the Instituto Universitario de Estudios Superiores de Artes Plásticas Armando Reverón...
