Sona Babajanyan is an Armenian-Australian artist, illustrator. Her work, bordering on the surreal, reflects the constant search for an elusive self—piecing together the broken parts, balancing dualities, and facing the deeper parts of who we are. She works in both traditional and digital media, in colour and black and white.
Billy Shannon interweaves themes of contemporary physics, plant sentience, insight meditation, and human consciousness to explore the interconnectedness of all things. He focuses on how light moves through layers of paint and varnish to evoke emotional resonance. Billy’s many years of experience as a scenic artist for theatre and film informs his visual practice, enriching his exploration of both the tangible and abstract aspects of existence.
Travis Hendrix is a mixed media artist based in Berlin. He predominantly works in ink, watercolour, gouache and pastel.
‘My current body of work, like a map, is a record of my surrounding world in an attempt to navigate and understand it. I strive to capture the essence of the human experience through a blend of realism and surrealism. The works become psychogeographic maps as emotions to events in their surroundings take on tangible forms. The space that's left behind is the mind.’
