Inspired by Rembrandt and Caravaggio, painter Luke Hillestad captures a strong sense of emotion.

“When I first started painting I thought it would be fun to do a bunch of paintings of my friends in hoodies and jeans. Then I tried to experiment – I would take things and make them look like they could be from any century.”

Gunilla Klingberg

Swedish artist Gunilla Klingberg uses company logos to create intricate patterns.

“I’m interested in the combination to clash the iconography taken from the western world with this image, which resembles of a sacred mandala.”

Jayden Moore

A man is working on a piece of jewelry.

Jayden Moore takes momentos from the early 20th century and reassembles them into beautiful artworks.

“I’m interested in having these things, cutting them apart, giving them a new history, a new aesthetic.”
