<b>BRADLEY THEODORE&nbsp;</b><div><b><br></b><div><i>Marie Antoinette in the coral gardens&nbsp;</i></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>34 x44.5 inches	</div><div><br></div><div>acrylic on cold press paper&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>2025</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Born in Turks and Caicos, Bradley Theodore is a contemporary artist who started his career in New York City and has been an internationally-inclined artist and collaborator from his very beginnings. Having worked in the tech and design sector after his graduation from the School of Visual Arts, Theodore eventually moved back to New York where his artistic career took off. With roots in graphic design, Theodore’s beginnings as an artist came from adorning the streets of New York City with vibrant, chromatic murals of skeletons depicting contemporary pop culture and fashion “royalty.” Bradley Theodore is known for his colorful depictions of icons. He is a multi-disciplinary artist whose iconoclastic approach to art can be found internationally, from 10-foot murals on the streets of Tokyo, Paris and Milan, to sold-out solo exhibitions in London, Tokyo and NYC. Evoking the universality of color, skeletons, and celebrity, Theodore distills figures to skeletal forms, a confrontation that the artist calls “an act of living”, pushing color to express memory, emotion, and lived experiences. Theodore’s portraits juxtapose the legendary and mortal qualities of modern and contemporary icons and the artist has become a staple in the art and fashion scene in New York City.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>Theodore has collaborated with popular artists and brands on creative projects for Puma, Waldorf Astoria, Haig Club, Moët, Rolls-Royce, Lego, and Moleskine. In 2016, Bradley was the official artist for the US Open, where he created four murals on display at the tournament's venue; and was the subject of independent film “Becoming: Bradley Theodore”, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival. In 2017, Google invited Theodore to their Artist in Residence program (AiR), where he employed the tech giant’s Tilt Brush tool to create art in another dimension. In 2018 for the 50th anniversary of PUMA’s iconic Suede sneaker, Theodore designed a limited edition shoe which was followed by a full collection of sneakers, garments and accessories for the streetwear giant’s Spring Summer 2019 offering. More recently in 2020 Theodore partnered with LEGO as an official artist for the LEGO Dots campaign, and created a limited edition series of bottles for HAIG Whisky and David Beckham. 2022-23 saw collaborations with the Waldorf Astoria, Snapple and Project Zero.</div></div>

Since childhood, Manuela has chosen sculpture as a means of expression. She then moved to New York in the 1980s to study at the Parsons School of New York, where she primarily learned metal working. After the United States, Manuela moved to Tuscany in 1988, to Pietra Santa, a true Mecca of sculpture, home to a dozen of the world's best bronze foundries. In this legendary place, Manuela followed the teachings of her master, the sculptor Fiore de Henriquez, who taught her for three years to discover the alchemical dimension of lost wax casting and bronze.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>Living with her family in Paris since 1991, Manuela Zervudachi regularly exhibits in London, Paris, and Switzerland. Her work reveals her fascination with the state of humanity in its environment. She has worked successively around the themes of tarot, the symbolism of the body, time, and seeds. At the same time, Manuela regularly collaborates with interior designers and collectors to create commissioned pieces.</div><div><br></div><div><i>"The seabed and coral reefs re a sculptors paradise with such incredible volumes, which is truly inspiring.

From his studio in Lille, France, the Moroccan-born artist infuses his canvases with warmth and joy, shunning dark tones. His art reflects his desire to explore new places, with vibrant colors and light defining his style. Touils’s challenging upbringing forged him into a resilient self-taught artist, split between Morocco and France during his childhood. From a tender age, he shouldered responsibilities beyond his years, laboring to support his family instead of attending school. His move to Lille at age 18 marked a pivotal moment, igniting his determination to overcome adversity through art. Inspired by Impressionists like Monet and Van Gogh, Touils employs acrylic, spray, and oil paints to construct vibrant layers on canvas. His brushstrokes, reminiscent of his idols, evoke feelings of joy and tranquility.</div><p></p>

Raised as a third generation fisherman, Voutsis started collecting Mediterranean found objects from the sea such as discarded fishing nets, plastic bottles and red sea coral which got caught in his nets fifteen years ago. Acutely aware of changes in the ocean Voutsis has been working on “Poseidon’s Cry” for five years and carefully added elements as the sea has revealed them allowing him to harvest these offerings. In addition to working as an artist, Voutsis takes guests on private fishing tours to show them the beauty and fragility of the Greek seas. He has become well known as an activist for change so much so that television presenter Julia Bradbury devoted a whole episode to him on her travel programme The Greek Islands with Julia Bradbury to much acclaim. Through his artwork, Voutsis not only repurposes waste but also calls attention to rising sea levels, overfishing, and the plastic crisis, urging communities to reconsider their relationship with nature before the tides of damage become irreversible. Voutsis is a polymath, an artist, a Philosopher, a poet and indeed a fisherman.&nbsp;</div>
