Lisa Brice. Untitled, 2019 (artist’s portfolio).
Oil, synthetic tempera, ink and pastel on linen: 203 x 105 cm. Lisa Brice (2018): “I am drawn to the ambiguity that people and places can hold. Sometimes the compositions of my paintings feel like cinematic outtakes: the moments between directed actions, when the figures are ‘on their own time’, self-involved, performing only for themselves or one another. There are infinite possibilities embodied in these transitional states of being, which could also be a time of day, or adolescence, or gender, or rooms that feel like threshold spaces – thinly veiled interiors with glimpses of the exterior, grilles or indoor plants, typical in the tropics. These are all thrilling states – a kind of magical suspension”.

Christian Rex van Minnen. Reglaze the Pizza Dynasty, 2018 (artist’s portfolio).
Oil on panel: 61 x 76.2 cm. Christian Rex van Minnen (2017): “I never want to be provocative just for provocation's sake. I'm really cautious about being too ironic, or even flippant. I think it has to come from a place that's sincere, otherwise it comes off the wrong way; so what you say is true. The power of the technique itself is that you can kind of put anything behind it and it'll look good. In history, that's been a very manipulating force. You have to be careful. What is the message behind it? And if it's devoid of message, then it's just manipulation”.
