b-POWER: SENE Festival Exhibits 4 b-uncut Artists

// March 31st, 2010 // View Comments // b-Crowd

b-uncut is surging with activity. Once Larisa Colantonio heard about the
SENE festival it wasn’t long before her virtual word reached more b-uncut’ers. Now Michelle Gates, Ross Kerr and Joe Niderno are also exhibiting.

Through b-uncut I have met many artists that I now have a friendship with.  Whether it be a comment here or there or a chat, we have forged friendships that b-uncut made possible not allowing distance prevent our unity. Larisa

SENE festival is from 7th-11th April. Read more about each artist and see what work they’ll be showing below.

Art is the doorway I walk through for me to step outside of ME.

Larisa Colantonio is a wife, a mother and an artist with a twist. Known for her Pensaic style of art, she runs off of raw emotion and bends it with her mind to create something truly unique.

In high school, through the open mindedness of her art teacher she was able to create a style of art  she called Pensaic. From there she flourished. Pensaic art became the outlet for her soul and mind.
As she entered adulthood, she found that painting with acrylic was also a very good way for her
to express herself. On occasion, you will find that she has even combined her acrylic painting with her Pensaic style.


“I see everything in layers, every layer is more important than the next.”

Joe Niderno has been dreaming and drawing since childhood.  ”My motivation derives from always seeing artistic visions in everything around me.  Often silenced in immediate thought or wonder. I am always pushing to project my visions the best way I can alongside maintaining a self truth.  I am trying to evolve as an artist everyday while being inspired by many artists in all types of mediums.”


I climb through the hole in the fabric of our existence, seeking inspiration.

Michelle Gates is a self-taught British artist whose art is influenced by raw emotion and her environment. She loves the interplay between colour and light, and the perceived and unseen worlds. Her dreams are also a vivid source of inspiration. They are twilight zone scenarios where reality and fantasy become intertwined.

What drives her? Each newborn concept strikes her vision and entices her creativity.
What excites her? The smell of fresh paint and the first scratch of the pencil on virgin paper. Emotional expression is key to all her paintings.


“I like to free myself from distress through painting and encourage others to do the same.”

Ross Kerr is a South African artist. “I am keen to begin exhibiting overseas. Personally the meaning of my life is to leave a mark with my paintings once I have passed on, or preferably while I am still living! I like to call my work Naive/Raw, as I do not attempt to make an intellectual statement, and I am uninfluenced by growing trends or fashion.”

b-loud: Figurative Drawing: Sketching to the Bone: Andreja Repnik

// March 10th, 2010 // View Comments // b-loud


Slovenian artist Andreja Repnik brings a unique vision to the figure.
Seethingly torn and ripped limbs are
reconstructed with fibre, wood and what could be coral. Her drawings arrest your attention and make you question the mutilation. At only 24 it’s clear what a promising future Andreja has ahead of her. Read on and you’ll learn how coherently her work exerts the way she sees the world.

b-Loud!

b-uncut: What was your very first artwork?
Women in luxurious clothes (marker on paper).

b-uncut: Describe the piece you love the most—why?
One element, female body embraced with wire, her back is so fragile and at the same time so strong, you can never know what she sees or what she thinks.

It represents me, my thinking about this world, life and how it is so empty some times and I also use themes of nature, wood, life. Elements which never die and have a thousand uniqe shadows. Nature is always telling us how to survive in the long term. It seems some people see and some don’t.

b-uncut: What are your methods? Your inspirations?

Just sit down and start… let’s go… I take what I have, shadows leads me at every step and the paper opens a new dimension. I have no fear, ther is just me, paper, ‘tool’ and shadows. I am inspired by nature, people, tone, smell, taste and sight.

b-uncut: What did it take to make it to where you are now?

Not much,… just life without compulsion … I started on canvas eight years ago and ended up drawing. So I seriously deal with drawing the last two years… in the other hand I draw from early age.

b-uncut: Do you make a living from your artwork?

No.

b-uncut: Who has helped you along the way?

Hm, very little help from others. The last three years has helped me find the art I want to express.

b-uncut: What 5 artists (dead or alive) would you invite for the ultimate dinner party?
Salvador Dali, Albrecht Dürer, Kazuhiko Nakamura, Jeff Bartels, Leonardo da Vinci.

b-Quick!

b-uncut: Qualities a man needs to seduce you?

Artist, a man with a special view on the world, academic, longterm creator, or just a stranger from the street or farmer.

b-uncut: Your parents advice you should have followed, but didn’t?

‘I told you what to do.’

b-uncut: The power you wish you had?

Freedom… is that a power?

b-uncut: Who would you chose to rule the world?

You, me, my mother, father, brother, sister,…

b-uncut: Favourite ice-cream?
Hm, yogurt with cherry sauce.

.
b-Honest!

b-uncut: Where do you see yourself in…..

One month?

studying.

One year?

studying.

One decade?
uh…. in rural France. Small rural house, canvas, oil, paper, pencil, …and a lot of colors.

Over 700 artists around the world unite – we’re now live!

Everybody asks themselves what art is… We think that art is any human creation that is able to lift the spirit to a higher plain of emotion and wonderment.

We have made our artworks accessible online, and now we want to give our talented community of artists a voice beyond their art, whilst creating a platform to bridge the gap between artists, art lovers and buyers.

Over the coming months we’ll be bringing our community of artists to life through this blog, discussing the latest art news, and highlighting the stuff we think is uber-cool!

We look forward to seeing you join the conversation.
