Rachele Frison (b. 1995) is an emerging Italian artist based in Milan. A graduate of the Brera Academy of Fine Arts (2023), her practice is rooted in drawing, which continues to inform the structure and texture of her oil paintings. Frison’s work draws heavily from folklore, fairy tales, and art history—blending mythic symbolism with a contemporary visual language. Her compositions are intimate and dreamlike, often inhabited by ambiguous feminine figures and ritualistic natural elements.
She has participated in group exhibitions in Switzerland, Italy, China, and Denmark.

In her hauntingly poetic project Faërie, Chinese photographer ZHOU Yang transforms historic literati gardens into timeless dreamscapes that defy the constraints of the physical world. Working with analog photography, Yang merges tradition with transformation, reviving spaces once built for meditation and escape into worlds of myth, memory, and longing. Exhibited across major festivals in China and beyond, her images beckon the viewer to step beyond the tangible, into the delicate space where culture, history, and fantasy blur.
In this conversation, we uncover the philosophical roots of her practice, her fascination with the unseen, and her belief in photography as a portal to an imagined yet utterly believable world.

SUSTAINABLE again – it’s a photographic project organised by photographer and art historian Iana VS in collaboration with the networked vintage resale Carla caritas Wien in Austria, Vienna.
Even before I started with photography, I was drawn to vintage shops and second-hand resales. When photography entered my life, vintage clothing became a perfect way to express creativity and complement concepts.This is how the concept for „Sustainable again“ gradually came to life.
The project personifies the identity of a completely irrational consumer, a shopaholic lost in what is often referred to as a „sustainable“ space. Overdressed women, who are no longer individuals but rather details of decoration, have become so obsessed that they have transformed into lifeless mannequins.
Second-hand clothing became popular in Europe in the 1950s and 1960s. In the 1990s and 2000s, with growing awareness of environmental issues, second-hand shops became associated with sustainability, fashion, and uniqueness.Thus, we do not promote the creation of a bicycle that has been working for a long time. We only remind us that we still have it.
Reuse of things makes it possible to develop creativity and resourcefulness, contributes to a positive impact on the environment, preserves natural and Human Resources. That is enough to do better already today.

Sofia Christof is a luxury prêt-à-porter brand that embodies the Greek savoir vivre—a way of life defined by effortless elegance, presence, and the art of contrast. Designed for women who command their space with quiet power and fearless confidence, the brand merges refined Italian craftsmanship with a sensibility that is both enigmatic and assertive.
In an age where high-definition clarity dominates photography, Andrey Makalkin deliberately embraces distortion, digital noise, and soft focus to create an alternative visual language. Born in 1997 in the Moscow region, Makalkin’s journey began with a passion for photography and digital collages, leading him to study cinematography at VGIK, one of Russia’s most prestigious film schools. His artistic evolution took an unexpected turn as he fused his love for art history, painting, and experimental techniques to redefine contemporary photography.
Through series like „Unsettling Things“, which explores childhood fears through an eerie yet poetic lens, and „Myths“, where he reinterprets ancient narratives through fractured reflections and vibrant hues, Makalkin challenges our perception of reality. His works, shot on a mobile phone and meticulously altered in post-production, blur the line between photography and painting.
In this exclusive interview, we dive into Makalkin’s creative process, his fascination with imperfection, and the symbolic layers hidden within his work. How does he see digital noise as an expressive tool rather than a flaw? What myths does he believe deserve a contemporary visual revival? And if he could photograph an emotion rather than a subject, how would he bring it to life?

Nikita Nomerz transforms urban decay into vibrant, living canvases. Known for his unique approach to street art, this Russian artist breathes life into abandoned structures by turning them into expressive faces and characters, often using windows and cracks to form eyes and mouths. Nomerz’s journey, which began in Nizhny Novgorod, has taken him around the world, where his work interacts with the environment in ways that blend art, architecture, and storytelling. His internationally recognized Living Walls project is a testament to his ability to fuse street art with the history and spirit of the spaces he occupies.
In this interview, Nomerz talks about his creative process, his philosophy on bringing forgotten spaces back to life, and how street art serves as a dynamic conversation between artist, architecture, and the public
