Adrian Valencia
A Chicano illustrator from Yakima, he developed his artistic foundation through graffiti culture and street art, influences that continue to shape his creative identity today. His work blends bold visual storytelling with deeply rooted cultural references, creating pieces that feel both authentic and contemporary.

His artwork is an amalgamation of Chicano Americana influences, merging traditional cultural aesthetics with modern illustration and graffiti-inspired techniques. Through expressive imagery, lettering, and dynamic compositions, he explores themes of heritage, individuality, and community.

Rooted in both Chicano culture and American street art traditions, his work reflects a raw yet refined energy that captures the intersection of personal experience, cultural history, and urban artistic expression.

Mor Tamir Rapoport
A ceramic artist and interior designer whose work explores the relationship between material, form, and space. As the founder of MTR Studio, she creates sculptural ceramic works through material experimentation, intuitive making, and a deep connection to raw clay and natural textures.

Inspired by landscapes, erosion, and geological formations, her pieces embrace irregularities created by gravity, time, and process. Rather than focusing on functionality, she approaches ceramics as expressive sculptural forms, allowing each work to evolve naturally into a singular object with its own tactile presence and character.

Ashley Alexis
Ashley Simmons is a visual artist whose work is deeply inspired by music, emotion, and cultural storytelling. After discovering her passion for art through an introductory drawing class at the age of 19, she went on to study Visual Arts at the University of Toledo, where she earned her Bachelor’s degree and began developing her artistic practice.

Working primarily with abstract acrylic painting and palette knives, her pieces are heavily influenced by music and the emotional energy behind iconic albums and artists. Drawing inspiration from figures such as Tyler, the Creator, Frank Ocean, and Kanye West, she embraces texture, layering, and imperfection as essential elements of artistic expression.

Her work also reflects the profound influence Black culture has had on her creative journey, particularly through music, fashion, and multimedia. Through her practice, she aims to celebrate and amplify Black voices within artistic spaces while creating work that feels personal, emotional, and deeply human. Her artwork has been featured by platforms including Complex, Pigeons & Planes, HIDDEN, and Love.Watts.

Flavio Lopez
Born in Mexico City in 1969, the artist developed their visual and artistic foundation at the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes, where they studied design and refined their visual language, artistic technique, and creative perception.

For more than 28 years, they worked in the editorial field with the Comisión Nacional de los Derechos Humanos while continuing to nurture and expand their artistic practice alongside their professional career.

One of their greatest passions is photography, with a particular interest in capturing the rhythm and everyday atmosphere of urban life. Through their lens, ordinary moments and city landscapes become intimate visual narratives that reflect the character and energy of contemporary urban environments.

Alexander Spain
The artist’s work explores emotion through texture, movement, and the physicality of paint. Working intuitively without fixed compositions, they allow instinct and gesture to shape each piece, creating layered works that balance intensity with moments of calm through contrasting tones and textures.

Influenced by their Southern roots as well as time spent in Chicago, Washington, Tokyo, and London, their practice is deeply connected to emotion, healing, and self-expression. Returning to painting after a long hiatus, they embraced art as a form of therapy and continue to explore the powerful relationship between creativity, emotion, and mental well-being.
