Dilge Basut
Dilge is an Aegean art director whose work is deeply shaped by the sea, food, and the bold colours of the Mediterranean. Her visual world carries a sense of warmth and ease, drawing from everyday scenes, familiar rituals, and the textures of coastal life.
Through playful compositions and a handmade sensibility, she transforms simple moments into images that feel personal and full of character. Her work embraces slight imperfections, allowing each piece to feel spontaneous, human, and quietly expressive.
Agier Barberine
Barberine Agier’s practice is shaped by transformation. After twenty years working with beauty in spaces made for others, she now works from her studio in Lisbon, allowing clay to become a more personal language.
Fire marked a turning point in her life and practice. What followed was a long period of crossing, reflection, and return. In 2025, this cycle closes with the opening of her studio, not as a restart, but as a true beginning.
Agier works alone, often with music shaping the rhythm of each piece. Mood guides form. Clay resists, softens, and remembers. Emerging from the kiln, each work carries the trace of the hands that made it, while also becoming something beyond the artist herself.
A long-standing collector with a deep relationship to contemporary art, Agier moves from building beauty for others to drawing it from within, through the material memory of clay.
Andrea Ehret
The artist explores the fragility of human experience, focusing on the balance between vulnerability and strength. Her work reflects on femininity, identity, and the quiet awareness of the present moment.
Calligraphy plays an important role in her practice. Through the rhythm of each stroke, she transforms emotion and vulnerability into a form of visual poetry.
Working with mixed media, she layers materials and techniques to create depth, mirroring the complexity of memory, feeling, and lived experience. Her work invites viewers to pause, reflect, and connect with the beauty found in delicate and fleeting moments.
Chris Folie Setsoafia
The artist is a Ghanaian mixed-media artist from Tsito, whose practice is shaped by memory, identity, and place. Rooted in his Ewe heritage, his work reflects the relationship between people, land, and spirit.
He began with portraiture, using the human figure to explore identity and presence, before turning towards the landscapes, structures, and everyday rhythms of his hometown. His recent works return to Tsito through memory and observation, not to idealise it, but to recognise the value of what already exists.
With heavy skies and a quiet sense of anticipation, his work reflects memory, change, and futures still taking shape. Through this, he connects to the African Dream as something grounded, beginning with how we see and honour the worlds around us.
Samantha Wooldridge
Samantha is a painter and tattoo artist from North Carolina, USA. Drawn to surrealism from an early age, she has been painting for as long as she can remember.
Her work often explores emotion, movement, and transformation, bringing together animals, everyday objects, and familiar foods in unexpected ways. Influenced by the surrealist language of Salvador Dalí, Brooke creates imaginative compositions that feel both strange and expressive.
For her, travel and nature are important sources of inspiration, shaping a practice rooted in curiosity, experience, and the desire to keep creating.
