Based in São Paulo/BR, Fabiolla Loureiro has been working as a photographer since 2010. First as a hobby, a Nikon D50 and only one lens, she ended up discovering within the photography herself. She developed her skills in studio with her sister (Studio Loureiro), where she mainly explored portraits and nude. But in the last few years, she became obsessed with travels (over 30 countries), and found herself involved with this freedom and opportunity that this kind of photography allows.

Billy Ma is a painter, sculptor, designer and illustrator. He was born in Taiwan but raised in Canada. 2009 saw Billy growing restless with his job as an art director in innovation and so he began to flex his artistic skills via digital illustrations during his spare time. With the popularity of the first images on social media and enquiries from interested buyers, Booda Brand - the limited-edition print company - was conceived. Drawing from contemporary themes, Billy seamlessly and naturally combines eastern and western aesthetics into his artwork. Many influences come from spirituality, socio-political issues and a sardonic sense of humour.

I started the current series of drawings a couple of years ago when I started working on an iPad. The agency provided by the device, and the rigor of its limitations, has been inspiring. Most of my earlier work is black and white line drawing, with formal considerations of structure and balance explored using primitive, stylized body parts and symbols. I'm still doing the same exercises, but now with color, shapes, and texture. The approach isn't really Cubism so much as stand-up comedy. What makes a joke funny is when your brain makes the leap from the setup to the punchline. What makes my drawings work is when your eye makes the leap from what you're seeing to what I'm drawing. The titles are part of the equation.

I am Ho Yin Chan, Scofield, a 'camera user' over five years, specifically in street photography.For me, street snap is a process to know myself, from the observation and interpretation in that single second, insight is required as most of the time there is no model answer for your shutter.

Free Radicals: We all want to love and be loved. Yet, the disorientating intangible chemistry of love is a complex potion with the power to satiate the soul, to heal, to enflame our desires, as well as polarizing forces that can torment, eviscerate, and make us hollow. What happens in that intangible vaporous space between the nerves, synapses, and electrical impulses, then mixes together with passion, attraction nostalgia and lust to become this duplicitous double-edged sword called love?

I develop my artistic practice both in the studio as outside, either making paintings, murals, installations or small animations. I like painting and building with my hands since I can remember. I enjoy experimenting and trying ideas, without getting too comfortable in the same line of work.

I am located in south-west Germany and kind of rediscovered photography as a hobby quite recently. Though I have been interested in photography for many years, just one year ago I started to approach it more seriously. I primarily use a digital mirrorless Olympus OM-D camera with several prime and zoom lenses and more recently started to use and experiment with an old analog Minolta SLR camera.

As a full time artist, I hope to balance a juxtaposition of inspiring contributions of art for the community and telling my personal story. Using the human experience as the common denominator. I’m inspired by unity in human interests and responsible stewardship of our fragile planet.
