Helena Hauss

Revising the work of talented ballpoint-pen artist Helena Hauss

“We live in a society ruled by social conventions and labels with pre-established set of traits that would be construed as weak, weird, bad, or unacceptable. My work aims to use self-deprecation and satire as a way to own up to those labels rather that shy away from them, and thus, put on display the very thing that others would scorn at. By using satire as a weapon against one’s inner demons, but also by rejecting a pre-established set of codes of social conventions to break down a systemic derogatory social hierarchy. It’s about owning up to one’s own short-comings and imposed labels, and refusing to apologise for them by revelling in them as part of one’s own identity. ”

Stefania Tejada

October 10, 2019 by Arseny Vesnin in 2019, Illustration, Colombia, Portfolios, Fashion

Stefania Tejada explores and studies the female spirit, an immersion within the concept of identity and her personal evolution as a human. She is in constant search of capturing her subjects when they feel most vulnerable and most powerful.

“n my work I explore the relationship between woman, photography and self-expression. I find the connection between the camera and the eyes of a woman a magical moment, a truthful moment. The way a woman can connect and express so much with just being, with simple movement, through eye-contact, with just being herself in a natural environment and through fashion. The way she owns her identity and her cultural background.”

Apparatuses for (Extra)Ordinary Acts

October 08, 2019 by Arseny Vesnin in 2019, Art, Greece, Illustration, Portfolios

Apparatuses for (Extra)Ordinary Acts (artist Charitini Gkritzali) is a sequence of depictions of the complex relationship between humans, objects and surrounding spaces. They attempt to illustrate this relationship’s present form, designate the way it is currently experienced, analyse it, and reflect over it in a descriptive or connotative manner. In this context, several factors and concepts deeply familiar to humans appear anaemic, unsound or expired: time, senses, individuality, conscience. The succession of apparatuses is cyclic. It exceeds progression and graduality, evoking doubt over its representational robustness. Ultimately, Apparatuses for (Extra)Ordinary Acts lead to the reformulation not only of human’s relationship with objects and surroundings, but with the very notion of realness and representation’s utopic nature.
