Claudia Comte is a Swiss artist who has redefined the intersection of environmental consciousness and geometric abstraction. Born in 1983 in Morges, Switzerland, she spent her formative years surrounded by the lush forests of the Jura Mountains, an environment that continues to serve as the primary catalyst for her creative output. Claudia Comte began focusing seriously on her artistic practice during her early twenties, developing a unique methodology that marries traditional woodcarving techniques with digital industrial technologies. Her academic foundation is rooted in the Swiss art scene, having earned her Bachelor of Arts from the Ecole Cantonale d’Art de Lausanne in 2007, followed by a Master of Art in Science of Education from the Haute Ecole Pédagogique in 2010. This dual background in fine art and pedagogical science informs her ability to create immersive installations that educate the viewer while providing a profound aesthetic experience.

Collectors of limited edition prints and sculpture often admire Claudia Comte for her meticulous attention to material and form. Her significant accomplishments include the prestigious Swiss Art Award, which she received in 2014, and her massive public commissions that bridge the gap between museum walls and the natural world. One of her most celebrated works is the site specific installation titled Desert X, where she erected a massive wall of shifting gradients in the California desert. Other famous pieces that have captured the attention of global collectors include the playfully organic Zigzag and Grids series, as well as the monumental underwater sculpture project titled The Earth Could Open and Or All of This Could Melt. These works demonstrate her ability to translate complex environmental data into tangible, rhythmic patterns that resonate with modern design sensibilities.

The exhibition history of this artist is extensive, featuring prominent solo shows at world class institutions. In 2017, she presented 10 Rooms, 40 Walls, 1059 m2 at the Kohn Gallery in Los Angeles, which showcased her mastery of spatial dynamics. She also held a major solo exhibition titled The Electric Comma at Copenhagen Contemporary in 2019, where her use of biomorphic shapes and woodcarving was on full display. Her work has been featured at the Castello di Rivoli in Italy, further solidifying her status as a vital figure in the international art market. For those who follow limited edition releases, her ability to scale her vision from massive outdoor murals to intimate, hand finished wood sculptures makes her a highly sought after name for serious art portfolios.

In addition to her museum presence, her gallery representation includes prestigious venues such as Gladstone Gallery in New York and Brussels. These shows often highlight her interest in the lifecycle of materials, specifically wood and marble. By utilizing chainsaws to rough out forms before hand polishing them to a mirror finish, she creates a tactile contrast that is a hallmark of her brand. Whether she is exhibiting at the Kunshalle Basel or participating in global art fairs, her work remains a testament to the enduring power of organic geometry. Her commitment to sustainability and the preservation of natural habitats ensures that her art is not just a visual commodity but a meaningful contribution to the global dialogue on climate change.

Daniel Kunzler 'Crowbra' Sculpture Available

Artist: Daniel Kunzler
Title: Crowbra (Black or White)
Medium: Hanpainted Resin Sculpture
Size: 40 x 40 x 31 cm
Edition: 27
Price: €995

 

Dan Künzler is an Austrian Swiss visual artist known for his exploration of boundaries, paths, and symbolic physical barriers within his work. Originating from Austria, his practice often revolves around the conceptual and literal representation of fences and enclosures, which he uses to investigate themes of exclusion and identity. By inviting viewers to mentally cut through these depicted fences, he encourages a transition from an external perspective to an internal understanding of different worlds and choices. His artistic philosophy emphasizes the search for deeper meaning, suggesting that the more a person examines these restrictive structures, the more they will discover about the paths available to them.

In addition to his thematic focus on borders, his work has been featured in German galleries where his symbolic approach to art is showcased through various exhibitions. This creative output is distinct from other individuals sharing his name, such as those in the fields of sociology or corporate management. The artist’s work remains deeply rooted in the idea of navigating transitions and making decisions when faced with obstacles, turning static images of barriers into dynamic sites of potential movement and change. By focusing on these specific motifs, he creates a visual language that addresses how ideas and identities are managed within defined spaces, ultimately promoting a sense of liberation through the act of slipping through the perceived boundaries of the world.

Artist: Claudia Sauter
Title: Pop Culture 2
Medium: Giclee Print
Size: 50 x 50 cm
Edition: OPEN
Price: £145

 

Claudia Sauter is a Swiss artist whose creative practice explores the intricate relationship between nature, architecture, and human perception. Based in Zurich, she has developed a distinctive visual language that often blurs the boundaries between traditional drawing and three-dimensional installation. Her work is characterized by a meticulous attention to detail and a profound sensitivity to the materials she chooses, ranging from delicate paper and graphite to more industrial components.

Central to her artistic inquiry is the concept of space and how it is experienced by the viewer. Sauter frequently employs geometric forms and repetitive patterns to create rhythmic compositions that challenge the eye and invite deep contemplation. These structures often mimic organic growth patterns or architectural blueprints, suggesting a dialogue between the built environment and the natural world. Her ability to manipulate light and shadow adds a layer of depth to her pieces, transforming static surfaces into dynamic environments that shift as the observer moves around them.

The precision found in her technique reflects a disciplined approach to art making. By stripping away unnecessary ornamentation, she focuses on the essential qualities of line and form. This minimalist aesthetic allows the inherent beauty of her chosen media to speak for itself. Over the years, her portfolio has expanded to include site-specific projects that interact directly with their surroundings, demonstrating her versatility and her commitment to exploring the physical and psychological dimensions of art. Through her refined and thoughtful output, Sauter continues to influence the artistic landscape in Switzerland and beyond.

The Real Hackney Dave 'The Slopes Are Always A Good Idea' Print Available

Artist: The Real Hackney Dave
Title: Ibiza Is Always A Good Idea
Medium: Framed One Color on Giclee Print
Size: Framed 41 x 33 Inches
Edition: 195
Price: $2,350

The Real Hackney Dave is the flamboyant working alias of Dave Buonaguidi, a British artist whose career began in the high pressure world of advertising and mutated into a love affair with print, paint and public space. Born in 1967 and raised in Peterborough, he studied graphic design at Camberwell College of Arts, then spent two decades as an award-winning creative director at London agency St Luke’s. 

Working from a light filled studio in Margate, Buonaguidi builds textured surfaces by pushing acrylic and aerosol through coarse linen mesh, then attacks the results with sandpaper, wire brushes and even power hoses. The process reveals ghost images beneath the surface, creating works that feel both weather beaten and freshly born. His palette leans toward maritime blues, sunbleached reds and storm cloud greys, colours that echo the Kent coastline outside his window.

Typography plays a central role. Snippets of overheard conversation, half-remembered song lyrics and advertising slogans appear in bold, distressed letterforms that float across the canvas like fragments of urban noise. Recent series feature vintage postcards of British seaside towns, overprinted with urgent questions about identity, belonging and the passage of time.

Commercial clients including Nike, Levi’s and the BBC have commissioned his distinctive style, yet Buonaguidi remains committed to independent projects. He co-founded the print studio and gallery St Jude’s, championing other artists who share his belief in raw, imperfect beauty. Workshops and talks allow him to spread the gospel of creative risk, encouraging participants to embrace mistakes as portals to originality.

Whether printing on salvaged wood, hand torn paper or sections of old sailcloth, Buonaguidi treats every surface as a conversation between intention and chance. The result is work that feels alive, honest and unafraid to show its scars.
