Gabriel Moreno graduated from Facultad de Bellas Artes in Seville in 1998. He was selected as one of the most influential illustrators in the world by renowned Taschen editorial. His work has been featured in leading international publications such as WSJ, Squire London, GQ USA, and Rolling Stone. His experience and reach is remarkable as an illustrator in advertising commissioned by iconic brands such as Nike, Rolex, Universal Music, and Coca-Cola.

His pieces make striking statements about female beauty through graphic and elegant images. The obvious eroticism of Moreno’s work is contained by a modesty and delicacy of temperament which infuses the technical and aesthetic elements of his art. His works comprise of owing and precise ne black lines, over which he deploys shocks of colour and dramatic gradients, accenting clothing, faces, or environments. In order to fulfill his vision, he uses multiple artistic mediums and tools such as pencil, ink, marker, watercolour, and digital art. Most recently he has been working with Spain’s most renowned foundry in the creation of a hand-engraved bronze sculpture that was released in Scope Miami.

Spanish/Australian artist Alberto Sanchez is a photographer and multi-media artist based in Byron Bay, Australia. Sanchez has pushed the medium of photography, developing a unique hand-colouring technique that enables him to create imagined scenarios from everyday moments. This heavy use of hand-colouring and texture results in a conceptual masquerade and ultimately creates an improbable landscape, in which us, the audience, are invited to participate in the struggle of modern life. The images fluctuate between the narrative to the matter-of-fact photographic record, resulting in a hybrid reality, of physical and imagined worlds.

Alberto conceives photography as a creative art form that is not constricted to the digital medium, where he prints, hacks and re-invents his own photographs to give them an idiosyncratic flavour. He sees photography as a kind of time traveling experience, a mixture of magic realism, which enables him to rediscover the world through his viewfinder. His body of work explores the notions of urban expansionism, capitalism and how individuals define themselves in this overloaded environment.
