Andrej Barov 'Urban Fire 3' Print Available

Artist: Andrej Barov
Title: Urban Fire 3
Medium: Giclee Print
Size: 39.4 x 26.4 Inches
Edition: 150
Prices: $650

 

Andrej Barov, born in Leningrad in 1958, grew up inside a family orchestra of composers and actors, so stage-light and rehearsal-room shadows became his first visual vocabulary. After earning a 1981 theater-studies degree from Leningrad’s Academy of Theatre, Music and Film, he emigrated to Munich in 1988 and turned the proscenium into the pixel, swapping scripts for scanners to probe how media manufactures collective memory. Working photographically, painterly and digitally often on the same canvas Barov “paints” directly into a computer with stylus and brush, then prints, stretches and varnishes the data until the screen’s cold glow warms into tactile pigment.
Series such as Durchlöscher dissect iconic drink labels into vertical color bars, translating brand recognition into abstract scent-triggers, while Correlation re-codes Mediterranean landscapes through an “axial-image requirement principle,” reducing natural vistas to rhythmic signal impulses that test the limits of perceptual psychology. The goal is not documentation but revelation: to make viewers feel how digital fragmentation re-writes history in real time.
Barov’s output has appeared in over 120 European museum and gallery exhibitions since 1988, earning honors that range from the European Photography Award (1993) to Russia’s Ministry of Culture prize (1998) and Germany’s Bronze ADC (2003). Whether he is visualizing the color of perfume or compressing geopolitical timelines into geometric mosaics, Barov keeps asking one question: if our eyes no longer trust reality, what does the mind obey?

Kat Honey 'Spiked + Striped' Print Available

Artist: Kat Honey
Title: Spiked + Striped
Medium: Giclee Print
Size: 30 x 40 Inches
Edition: 3
Prices: $1,250 CAD

 Toronto-based mixed-media artist Kat Honey remixes fashion magazines into razor-sharp collages that expose the cracks beneath glossy ideals. Born in 1966, she spent two decades as an award-winning graphic designer before a 2009 camper-van sabbatical convinced her to trade client briefs for gallery walls. Honey now slices, tears and re-orders luxury adverts until perfect faces become fragmented masks, then enlarges the fragments until printing dots and ragged edges loom like topographic maps of consumer desire.

Her process of hand-cut at magazine scale, digitally blown up to mural size magnifies every pore, tear and halftone, turning slick marketing into tactile evidence of manipulation. Solo shows at Red Head Gallery, Quest Art and Station Gallery, plus a 2024 takeover of every corridor in Toronto’s renovated Union Hotel, position her collages as both decor and dissent. A permanent neon piece at Gladstone House and three suites in Newmarket’s Postmark Hotel translate her aesthetic into glowing signage and hospitality art
.
Off the wall, Honey co-hosts the free monthly Virtual Collage Jam on YouTube, nurturing a global scissors-and-glue community featured in Kolaj magazine. She teaches online and at Haliburton School of Art + Design, arguing that creativity is learned, not bestowed. Cycling between studio, classroom and gym, Honey pedals the city she critiques, continually peeling back layers of identity, commerce and belonging.

These compositions create striking visual contradictions, inviting viewers to reflect on the relationship between language, nature, and human perception.

Taylor’s paintings are rooted in a fascination with the outdoors, reflecting both the grandeur of nature and the way it is mediated through culture. His landscapes often draw from the Romantic tradition, yet they are disrupted by brightly colored words that seem to float within the scene, as if they were signs, graffiti, or fragments of thought. This bold use of text transforms the landscape into a stage for storytelling, infusing it with irony, humor, and cultural commentary.

Educated at Goldsmiths, University of London, Taylor has exhibited widely in galleries across the UK and internationally. His work has attracted collectors and critics alike for its unique ability to blend fine art traditions with contemporary design sensibilities. In addition to paintings, Taylor has created prints and murals, extending his artistic language into accessible formats that reach broader audiences.

At the heart of Taylor’s practice is a dialogue between the timelessness of natural environments and the transient, often artificial, markers humans impose on them. Through his playful yet thought-provoking imagery, Benjamin Thomas Taylor challenges viewers to reconsider how words and images shape our understanding of the world.

Judith Supine is the name Brooklyn-based contemporary artist Brendan Fagan is recognized as. His surreal, psychedelic collages that blur the boundaries between street art and fine art. Emerging in the early 2000s, Supine gained attention by wheat-pasting large-scale works across New York City, often in daring and inaccessible locations. His practice combines the cut-and-paste rawness of street culture with the refinement of meticulously constructed collage, producing images that are both fantastical and unsettling.

Unlike many of his contemporaries, Supine keeps a low personal profile, preferring his work to speak for itself.

Beyond the streets, Supine’s work has been exhibited internationally in galleries and museums, further cementing his reputation as a significant figure in the crossover between urban intervention and contemporary collage.
