MalevichPunks is what happens when art meets money. Where lies the border between art and money? Thanks to NFT, it gets blurred more and more allowing revolutionary merges. Composition, colour, angles, shapes, abstraction become the filling surrounding stamped numbers to be part of the immutable eternity.

Love is the ultimate freedom. 

The original French title of the work "A la Renaissance: Sarah Bernhardt dans Phdre" was created in 1893 by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. 

Henri used simple strokes of pencil to lay out his ideas, before then developing them in oils and as lithographs.

Cibelle Cavalli Bastos is an artist, musician, independent researcher and activist who lives and works between Berlin, So Paulo and London. Their practice as research engages with the changing conceptualization of identity, performativity, pictorial communication and the propagation of behavioral patterns in the digital age. It observes the challenges to perception and cognition under a white-supremacist cis-hetero-normative patriarchal psyche turbo-powered by platform capitalism and explores how counter-discourses, that challenge dominant narratives around sociopolitical issues, can be embedded or used as a form of resistance against the propagation of algorithmic behavior both IRL and the digital sphere.

Cibelle Cavalli Bastos - 

p1xelfool is a Brazilian artist who explores the perception of time and phenomena with the medium as a mediator. His interest in conversations between machines and humans drives questions about the limits of organic and synthetic entities, and uses that unsettlement as a starting point to build works around those questions.

ELYSIUM // EDITIONS BY COLOURWRKS

For centuries, sculptured rice terraces have dominated vast expanses of land across South-East Asia. 

Situated at the heart of the Indonesian archipelago, lies the mystical island of Bali where manicured landscapes of verdant hues, lapped by swaying palms, are synonymous with its reputation as a tropical paradise.  

Not only does the existence of the terraces play a huge part in the agriculture of the island, they are a physical manifestation of the ancient Balinese Hindu philosophy Tri Hita Karana that explores the harmony between God, Nature and its People.

The forests in the foothills and the floodplains of the Himalayas are some of the best places to explore India"s pristine wildlife. The unique habitat and its relationship with the denizens have the power to weave some really amazing visual stories of the wilderness. 
It was November 2016, and I was out exploring the magnificent terai forest of Dudhwa National Park, in northern India. This place is popular for its Tigers, Elephants, Rhinos, Barasinghas (Swamp Deer) and many more endangered species of wildlife along with a plethora of birds and other fauna. Morning safaris during this time of the year are usually very cold due to the onset of winter. This was one such morning, there was a thick blanket of mist all around the woods and the air was bone-chilling! All these along with soft and subtle light made every corner of the forest look very mystical and mysterious. I was on my way to a watchtower and was passing through a road that was surrounded by tall trees and dense undergrowth, it almost seemed like a tunnel leading to a new destination. This was when something really magical happened. As the car was heading closer towards the end of this patch of forest, I noticed something peep out from the thickets at the side of the road. An instant spike of adrenaline made me ask the driver to slow down the car, it was a Spotted Deer, a commonly seen species in the jungles of India. In forests like these, people often ignore them when it comes to photography, because most of the time the priority is on Big Cats, Elephants and other species. But, I felt that something was about to happen here that I hadn"t photographed or even seen before. What could it be? A few minutes of wait and then the entire scene turned into something extremely blissful and spectacular! The Stag with all its grandeur, walked out in the open and stood by the side of the road. I could visualise a frame here and was absolutely blessed that I was able to recreate it through this photograph. The entire ambience of the cold winter morning and the mysterious woods made everything look so magical, as if a moment from the land of wonders! Every element of the forest has the soul of the woods, it doesn"t matter whether it"s an ant or an elephant, the cycle of life in the forest depend on all. The tranquility of the moment, the sound of the rustling leaves, the chirping of the early birds and the lone Deer filling the space was all that was needed to make me believe that dreams do come true...I witnessed it that day, I witnessed the soul of the winter woods. 

Photographing wildlife by including a majority of its habitat is a style that I am very fond of and have been spending quite a lot of time in developing it. This particular photograph was one of the first of my images where I could establish my own style and incorporate my thoughts and emotions in it. The "Soul of the winter woods" will always hold a special place in my heart, not just because it encapsulated a precious memory in it but also because it represented my style of work to the world. It certainly is a milestone image in my journey as a wildlife photographer, an image that received immense love and appreciation from all across the world, got published in many places and was also a finalist in the very prestigious 15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest.
