BIEAF 2025 -'The Lost Center:

Art in Crisis' explores how contemporary art responds to the collapse of central values, shared narratives, and stable reference points in a rapidly changing world.

Erno Bokor was born on June 3, 1933, in Turda, Romania. He pursued his artistic studies at the School of Folk Art, where he earned his diploma in 1985. Since 1990s, he took part in several group exhibitions in Cluj- Napoca and at the Hungarian House in Stockholm. In 2025, his latest solo exhibition opened at the Hidelve Gallery from Cluj-Napoca.

Veduta of Cluj - The Lost Center

Watercolor on paper/21x29/2009

The panoramic view of Cluj-Napoca captures a city suspended betwern historical gravity and contemporary fragmentation. In the context of The Lost Center, this veduta becomes more than a topographic record: it is a visual archaeology of a city that has repeatedly lost and redefined its core. The absence is palpable - not as a void, but a dense, silent presence woven into the urban fabric. Through this lens, Cluj is both map and metaphor.

AN ANGEL IS BORN

COLOR PICTURE 80X60cm, 2025

In my painting, nature is reborn from the seed of life, in the form of an angel. Beacuse the angel is a symbol of goodness, purity and truth. Many cultures often depict it and call upon it for help in times of trouble, illness and problems. We can always count on them beacuse they have cosmic power and are the Creator's reliable helpers. The seed of life carries the hope of rebirth and is therefore the source of renewing nature and human life. My picture is an encouragement for the people of the future.

Empathy and Communication for a Better Future: The statement concludes by emphasizing the transformative power of art. It moves from the individual artist's deep inquiry ("question of the source") to universal human connection ("sympathize with his work and communicate with people around the world") with a clear, hopeful purpose ("for a better future"). This gives art a vital, active
role in social change and human progress.

Ismail Bakr is a multifaceted artist who combines creative and administrative roles within the Egyptian art scene. As a photographer and director of the "Gallery Around the World" program, he offers viewers unique insights into art from various corners of the globe. In addition to his media work, Bakr is a distinguished visual artist with his own unique mark in the art world. He is also the organizer of the "Sun Boats" International Exhibitions, playing a pivotal role in bringing international artists to Egypt and fostering cultural and artistic exchange. His contributions don't stop there; he also holds the position of Director of Photography at Egyptian Television, reflecting his extensive experience in visual production and his role in showcasing arts on national screens.

eyes of nature

Photography

This is a natural photograph from the depths of waterfalls in Iceland, showcasing natural formations without human intervention. The textures visible in the image suggest dark and light-colored rock and earth, along with a white, foamy or icy element at the bottom, possibly accompanied by mist or water spray. I can discern what could be interpreted as "eyes" in the image. In the central part of the light brown formation that resembles a fin or a marine creature, there are two small, dark, oval-shaped areas that appear like a pair of eyes. This interpretation gives the overall shape the appearance of a living creature or a face. This phenomenon is known as "pareidolia," where the brain perceives familiar patterns or shapes (such as faces or eyes) in random objects

"The Lost Center - Art in Crisis" interests me because art, as reflected in the architecture and culture, cannot exist without a balance between what is man made and what is nature. An imbalance must be addressed whenever conflicts occur between the needs of human beings and the stability of the Earth's ecosystems and its resources. The world's resources are not unlimited, and extreme climate changes occur as a response to the rapid depletion of those resources. That is why there is a movement away from fossil fuels to solar, wind and hydroelectric power. They are renewable energy sources that reduce and then eliminate hydrocarbons in the atmosphere that ultimately cause drastic changes in temperature, and the Earth's climates overall. The mining of strategic minerals and the utilization of water are other critical factors that adversely change the Earth's biodiversity. This would ultimately decide the fate of all species of animals and vegetation. The extinction factor becomes a very real existential threat due to climate change worldwide.

I have never before participated in the BIEAF. This is my first time. I'm a New York City photographic artist, and I heard about this art festival on Facebook, so I decided to enter my work. I am a life-long artist and resident of New York and I live on the Upper West Side of Manhattan near Columbia University. I take my inspiration from the natural world around me, even though I live in an entirely urban environment. I believe that the man-made world we, as human beings, have created must co-exist peacefully and in harmony with the natural world. There can be no peace unless our man-made communities work and respect the natural environment from which we derive our urban world. We have always been dependent on a stable natural world for the diverse cultures that have evolved due to our presence for thousands of years on this Earth. It appears that stability is being threatened by negative human activities. If Earth ceased to exist today, then all life and all culture would be extinguished. That is the simple truth. There is no culture of any kind without the natural world.

Impact Point

Digital Photo/16X24/2025

My photographic entry is titled "Impact Point". It's an abstraction created by taking a subject out of the normal context of its actual surroundings; in this case, of a piece of aggregated mineral from a museum exhibit, where the surface smoothness reflected a bright ceiling light on the surface of the aggregated mineral. The visual effect reminded me of the cataclysmic meteor blast over the Yucatan Peninsula that resulted in the worldwide extinction of the dinosaurs more than 60 million years ago.

My work has continued from welding scrap metal objects to terracotta made by molding clay and firing it, photo collage made by attaching photographs to everyday objects, environmental sculptures, land art, and natural ecology works. In these various changes in style, the Word has been consistently embodied, and after the period of proclamation and testimony, it has appeared as a dialectical work of truth, and as practical and participatory art. I call the fruits of this work ‘logos-ism’ sculpture, and I will select several works standing on that horizon and exhibit them in line with the theme of the 2025 BIEAF, the loss of the center. I see that at some point, my sculptures have been considering the environment and communication, growing in size and weight, but losing depth of consciousness. It would be a reward and a joy if my work could be
remembered as a challenge to and reversal of the frivolity, loss of soul, and absence of truth that contemporary sculptures have.

For dust you are and to dust you will return

Terracotta/220x150x 80cm/2017

Oh Eui-seok's , subtitled "The Original Creation of Humans and a Formative Exploration of the Future," brings to mind the account in Genesis where the Creator created the heavens and earth by forming a human form out of clay and giving life through his breath. According to this Christian worldview, humans are descendants of clay. When their finite lives end, humans return to clay. Compared to the infinite vitality of clay, fire is closely related to civilization. Humans were able to evolve only after receiving fire from Prometheus. Oh Euii-seok's works are based on this mythical worldview, shaping clay to create forms and baking them. Therefore, his works are highly contemplative and meditative. His work shows the process of tracing the Creator's creative acts. By confessing that he works with the earnestness of a craftsman who prays that his work may be elevated to religious sublimity, he is asking himself what value his work can have in an age of value-absence. - Excerpt from Choi Tae-man, Today's Korean Sculpture, p. 333, (Korean Art Yearbook Publishing, 1995) -

Childhood memories with small and insignificant beings like wild flowers are an invitation to precious times that I want to return to and remeber. The small flowers that comforted me when I had a hard time communicating with others in reality seem to represent our apperarance. Wild flowers and nature, which live with tenacious will and vitality, are beings that project and heal me. People and I running vigorously against the background of nature and wild flowers are showing our hearts. I am carrying a gift filled with my heart to you now,.. The love I received from my mother as a child and my relationship with nature are the main motifs of my work.

My heightened sensitivity constantly shifts my gaze elsewhere. Yet paradoxically, I find myself drawn to things that feel dangerous or unsettling. Even when I try to avoid them, I end up facing them—an inevitable confrontation that becomes a kind of rite of passage. Accepting, healing, reigniting, and transforming—these stages unfold on my canvas like entries in a diary. This cyclical act is not just a process; it is a vital ritual that keeps me alive.

예민하게 깨어 있는 교감신경은 내 시선을 끊임없이 다른 방향으로 이끈다. 하지만 역설적으로, 위험하고 불안한 것들에 더욱 깊이 끌린다. 피하고 싶지만 결국 마주할 수밖에 없는 그것들과의 충돌은, 나에게 있어 중요한 통과의례이기도 하다. 받아들이고, 회복하며, 다시 감정을 점화하고 치유해 나가는 그 모든 과정을 나는 마치 일기처럼 캔버스에 기록한다. 이 반복은 나를 살아 있게 하는, 반드시 필요한 행위다.

Schweiz

Eva Rehák is a Slovak-born visual artist whose second home is now Switzerland. She has been dedicated to art since childhood, completing 8 years of formal training under professional guidance. Although she explored various styles and techniques, she became particularly captivated by ink drawing — tiny lines and dots that demand patience and precision. Her unique pen-and-ink style remains central to her work, even when combining it with watercolors, acrylics, oils, or pastels. She creates spontaneously and intuitively, which makes her artworks diverse in theme, yet always marked by her distinctive pen strokes. Currently, she is also focused on textile painting, developing her own original fashion collection. Eva is also a professional makeup artist who collaborates with photographers, modeling agencies, and events both in Switzerland and internationally. Whether through a brush on canvas or a makeup palette, colors are an essential part of her world.

Emerging from a landscape torn between flame and ruins, two ethereal figures face each other — one rooted in a burning tree-ike form, the other surrounded by collapsing urban remnants. The composition reflects a fractured self, born from conflict, survival, and memory. The presence of decayed cities, the all-seeing eye, and a staircase climbing through the body of the figure symbolize the lingering aftermath of war — particularly the lived and inherited trauma of generations in Iran.

Yet through vibrant textures and organic forms, the painting resists despair, reaching toward imagination, healing, and the rediscovery of identity within devastation.

born in 1981 in Tehran, is an Iranian painter with a Master's degree in Painting from the Faculty of Art and Architecture, Islamic Azad University. I'm a permanent member of the Iranian Painters Association and an honorary member of the Institute for Promotion of Visual Arts.

For me, The Lost Center represents the fading connection between humans and their myth, land, and cosmic order — a spiritual dislocation shaped by modern crises. In my work, I revisit the legend of Arash the Archer as an act of return to that lost center: a moment where sacrifice, destiny, and nature (Mount Damavand, the sky, and the stars) align with meaning. By integrating ancient symbols and astronomical patterns, I aim to reconnect the viewer with the forgotten harmony between human, earth, and cosmos.

I am active in the field of painting and resin art. I work as a school art teacher, an international peace ambassador, and an entrepreneur.

Fatih Sungurtekin’s 'Penelope' questions the relationship between
environment, culture, and art, resonating with BIEAF’s 'Lost Center' theme. It explores existence's cyclical nature, micro and macro evolution, offering an artistic view on lost human-natural balance. Drawing from nature, universe, and microscopic imagery, this dynamic oil painting captures life's fleeting beauty. Its composition, in fantastic dialogue via Penélope Cruz's expression
and moon eclipse's serenity, invites viewers to reconsider memory, time, and our environmental-cultural core.

Fatih Sungurtekin (b. 1977, Çorum, Turkiye), is a conceptual visual artist exploring memory, time, and perception through layered abstraction. A Marmara University Fine Arts graduate, he blends traditional and contemporary techniques. Sungurtekin, who has participated in national and international exhibitions, examines the dissolution of collective memory and urban heritage. With his "Moment and Memory" concept, he transforms personal and collective elements into a visual cosmology, blending the visible and hidden. He continues his artistic work in Muğla, Turkiye.

Penelope

Oil on Canvas, 100W x 130H x 2.5 D cm  2023

Fatih Sungurtekin's 'Penelope' profoundly examines the cyclical nature of existence, its evolution and transformation at both micro and macro levels. Drawing inspiration from nature, the universe, and microscopic imagery, this dynamic oil painting captures life's ephemeral beauty. The composition, establishing a fantastic and surreal dialogue through Penélope Cruz's expression, wild energy, and the lunar eclipse's serenity, blends organic textures with celestial phenomena. The work underscores the value of body, memory, and time, inviting viewers to contemplate their own being and the unseen forces of transformation.

BIEAF2025 Invited Artist
Fatima Alam
Pakistan

My name is Fatima, a 20-year-old self-taught artist from Pakistan, deeply inspired by the intricate beauty and quiet poetry of nature. Ever since I can remember, I’ve been drawn to the colors of the sky, the textures of leaves, the dance of light and shadow — and art became the language through which I express this obsession. Without any formal training, I’ve spent years experimenting, observing, and learning through intuition and passion. My creative journey is rooted in a strong emotional connection with the natural world. Whether it’s the stillness of a forest or the wild rhythm of the sea, nature speaks to me — and I translate that voice into lines, forms, and color. My work often explores themes of growth, solitude, and wonder, combining soft palettes and organic shapes to reflect the harmony I find outdoors. As a Pakistani artist, I’m also inspired by the rich cultural textures of my surroundings — the earthy tones, intricate patterns, and deep traditions subtly echo through my art. Through every piece, I aim not just to create something visually pleasing, but to offer a small moment of calm, curiosity, or connection — something real in a world moving too fast. This is just the beginning of my story, and I’m excited to keep creating, learning, and sharing what I see through my eyes and feel through my heart.

The Boat

13x13cm  2022

 

This piece captures a quiet moment suspended between memory and stillness — a lone boat resting on calm waters, set against the backdrop of misty mountains and a brooding sky. The muted palette of greys and soft earth tones is broken only by scattered bursts of color, perhaps remnants of life once lived — drying clothes dancing on the wind, a soft echo of human presence in nature’s vast silence. The brushstrokes are expressive and layered, giving depth to the sky and water, while the reflection of the boat suggests a world just beneath the surface — half-seen, half-imagined. This painting reflects my love for solitude, old journeys, and how even stillness has a story to tell.

I believe that art is a means of resistance and adaptation to the difficulties of the human condition. Artistic expression restores the connection between human beings and the world they live in, allowing them to once again become the center of that world and to face global crises with a renewed perspective.

Fedia Lahmar, born on January 7, 1973, in Paris, is a Tunisian painter. She studied at ITAAUT, specializing in painting, and graduated in the class of 1995. She holds a PhD in Art Technologies and is an assistant professor at the National School of Architecture and Urbanism in Tunis. Since 2001, she has regularly participated in group exhibitions. In November 2022, she held a solo exhibition titled Réminiscence. Her recent work focuses primarily on the representation of the human body as a means to express various emotional states.

Rhizome 2

Acrylic on canvas / 100x130cm/ 2025

This work is part of my ongoing exploration of the representation of the human body and the expression of emotional states. The image features a series of stylized human silhouettes, scattered across an imaginary space. The forms are both statuesque and evanescent—some are integrated into the background, while others seem to emerge from the canvas. In terms of color, the palette is deliberately contrasting. The painting evokes a kind of symbolic landscape, where the figures appear more as presences than actual characters. The vegetal forms and vertical lines suggest a connection between the human and nature, between the material and the immaterial.

La obra circunda lo esotérico motivado por el complejo conocimiento del ser con transfiguraciones metafóricas que revelan analogías simbólicas alusivas a lo metafísico como cuestionamiento a la falsa moral del tiempo. Son sentimientos de inquietud o plenitud en un contexto existencial y social que se relacionan en pareidolias creando diversos puntos de vista para despertar consciencia estética con relaciones aparentemente invisibles, lugares incognoscibles pero imaginables que invitan la exigencia de investigar y renovar incógnitas desde los inicios de la civilización sumeria a lo espiritual del ser contemporáneo para sugerir la perspicacia de la reflexión sarcástica, simbólica y existencial. Su estética se interesa en lo onírico, espiritual y fantástico que escapa del naturalismo mimético. El ser y su entorno fragmentan códigos áuricos extendidos en energías que derivan a una simultaneidad como unidad abstracta, pero a la vez ese inconmensurable misterio son destellos paranormales que conlleva el ente humano. El color se transforma no sólo en un método sino también en cuerpo y componente, es un drenaje de miradas a través de una libertad expresiva apartada de convencionalismos, pues se representan conceptos que tienen varios niveles de significación, es decir, que su sentido no se agota en un solo significado literal, sino que abarcan toda una gama demótica. Hay un fenómeno central en que cuerpo y espíritu, símbolo y significación son abstracciones de cariz existencial. El ser no es una cosa, sino la vinculación con las cosas la percepción espacial y su prójimo que configuran el poder estructurador de ser en el mundo donde lo infinito se hace visible. el contenido que desarrolla Felipe Drago, es una reflexión pictórica que busca un encuentro con lo primigenio y lo cósmico, esa transmutación espiritual que producían los antiguos chamanes con pequeños accesorios rústicos y que mediante un lenguaje oculto lograban manejar los elementos y curar los males humanos. Su trabajo pictórico es más que la representación de formas y colores en la tela, a él lo anima la alquimia, troca el pigmento cromático con su energía interior, para que la resultante se conecte con la fuente primordial que nace de su imaginario. La composición en la obra del artista se maneja intuitivamente, el color es el que indica y da coordenadas al impulso interno que el artista tiene en el acto pictórico, esto varía de acuerda la conexión preestablecida por la temática que ha ido abordando, que pueden ser ideas de espacios inciertos llenos de atmósfera cromática y signos o personajes que sugieren lo étnico, cósmico y lo tribal.

Bu seramik büst, bedensel bütünlüğün kaybı üzerinden bastırılmış kimliğe ve toplumsal travmalara gönderme yapar. Kolların eksikliği sessizliğe, baştaki geri dönüştürülmüş nesneler ise kültürel belleğe ve tüketim izlerine işaret eder. Toprak ve endüstriyel materyal birlikteliği, doğayla ilişkiye dair bir kırılmayı yansıtır. Figür, merkezini kaybetmiş bir varoluşun formudur.

I transform emotions, memories and nature into works that reflect my connection with the body and spirit. I paint from introspection, seeking to express the beauty born from silence, the earth and the senses.

“Cracks in my skin” is born from an intimate exploration of my body as territory and memory. Through textures, lines and organic shapes, I represent the traces of time, emotions and silences kept. It is a gesture of healing and an affirmation of what I have lived.

I think that not only art is in crisis, but societies as such. However change not only unsettles, it also creates creative challenges = delightful disorientation.

Frauke Seemann grew up in Moers, located on the Lower Rhine, near Holland. She studied ethnology and art in Berlin, and following that, studied German, art, and sports education in Flensburg, upon which she received her first state examination for teaching. Finally, she studied visual arts in Kiel, receiving a degree in painting. Since 1992, Frauke Seemann has been living and working in Cologne, having travelled extensively in Europe, Mexico, the U.S., Belize and Guatemala. She has received numerous scholarships, including from the following: the Künstlerhaus Schleswig-Holstein, the Werkstatt Plettenberg and Nord-West Lotto, which also included an artist residency in New York for three months. Her works can be found in a variety of private and public collections. She has also exhibited her work on a continual basis in Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, Brussels, Netherlands, USA, South-East Asia and Iran. Since 2002 does she also work as an art and german teacher in school, reaching her second state examination for teaching. Now she lives and works in Cologne, Germany and Groningen, NL. (Translation: Louisa Schaefer)

Frauke Seemann  Deutschland 1.jpg

„We've been fascinated by your stunning and powerful abstract art research where forms and colours create such an intense and emotional results. We reckon your art will bring new and creative stimulations among this exhibition; your works reveal their power through the force and the brightness of colours, through the different effects of forms, the textures, the pictorial matter, the magnetic energy from the pictorial sign which spring from the canvas. In your paintings imagination and creativeness are released through the flow of the living and acting forces on the canvas, the interaction of spaces, forms and colour connection, taking them beyond to their physical limits.“ (Paola Trevisan, July 2009, international curator, Estense Castle - Ferrara Italy)

delightful disorientation 1+2

Mixed media on canvas, 70x70 cm, 2023

I have been working in the field of painting and graphics for a long time. Form and color are my main focus. I work relatively fluidly from the gut, but in between I step back and contemplate my results. My pictures are worked on while lying on the floor. At the beginning there is always the picture and color surface, further "traces" emerge in the process - "flow".
I leave traces on the canvas or, alternatively, on the paper, similar to the traces of the day/life. Inner experiences flow into this process, much like diary entries. I usually work on several canvases/papers at the same time, the creative process can take a long time, sometimes months. I try to access not only conscious but also unconscious thoughts and feelings. I reject art as a pure idea or concept, the head rather complements the gut and the feelings. I am part of the emotional painting process - I step back and reflect from a distance.
Disruptions - in terms of style, content and technique - are planned or arise during the process. I don't avoid decoration, but rather enjoy it, as for me it is part of the painting process and the handling of colors. In this respect, there is contact with applied art and design, which I do not reject as "everyday art" in the sense of the Bauhaus.
Incorporating language and embroidering as pictorial elements stems from the fact that I am trying to expand traditional painting. I started painting when, as a young woman on a trip to Guatemala, I saw the colorful, self-woven fabrics of the indigenous women. For me, this was painting in a different form and culture, and the intense colors in particular inspired me to create my own work.
Embroidery also underlines the meditative character of my paintings, as it is a relatively slow process and allows you to calm down. I am also interested in superimposing different layers and patterns, some of which have little to do with each other. This is part of my current experience of the world. I see and experience many things in the present that are superimposed, shifted so to speak, but do not actually fit or belong together. Here, too, I try to expand traditional painting. At the same time, however, I also try to stay with myself and my female or individual self. This means that my works are neither large, aggressive nor political in a direct sense.

Nowadays it is difficult to exhibit art, football and sport is mentioned by the government also as art or culture. So I´m glad BIEAF is given this opportunity to share art from all over the world...

I’m a photographer. I live in Dronten, Flevoland, Holland since 1992. It is a ‘50 years young‘ part of The Netherlands, mostly an agriculture polder. My home is built on the old sea bottom 5 meters below sea level. I’m a humanist and like to travel, meet other cultures. As artist I’m involved with different national and international art projects, often involved in the organization of all, so I met a lot of artists from all over the world.

My work focuses on human figure as a vehicle for emotional expression,
identity and fragility. I am interested in exploring the relationship be tween the interior and exterior, between the interior and exterior. I work with different techiques, but I am passionated about watercolor for its transparency and spontaneity. I enjoy working landscapes "in situ" with this technique. My intentio is not to portray but to evoke.

FANTASIES

oil/canvas-60x80cm-2025

Fantasy in children needs to be stimulated, as a call to protect that playful and visionary capacity, wich often fades with age and breaks with current context full of digital stimuli and limitations of this world such as climate chaos. This painting titled FANTASIES, is an invitation to reconnect with essential creativity, with "PLAYNG" as an act of freedom and creation.

BIEAF2025: ‘The Lost Center - Art in Crisis’ invites us to reflect deeply on cultural fragmentation and the search for meaning in contemporary art. The exhibition explores how artists address the crisis of our time, seeking a “center” amid complexity.

Caserío Sabanero "Bogotá"

Mixed media on canvas/100x100 cm/2002

Under a sky ablaze with red and crimson, the heart of the savannah beats. The feverish strokes do not depict houses, but rather the soul of a refuge that clings to life with the same intensity as color. 
This work is not a landscape, it is the pulse of Bogotá at its edges: a symphony of urgent lines and vibrant colors that reveals the raw beauty and indomitable resilience that flourishes in chaos. It is the memory of the city building itself, one heartbeat at a time

BIEAF2025 Invited Artist
Ghulam Hussain (Guddu)
Pakistan

Ghulam Hussain is a contemporary visual artist from Hyderabad, Sindh, a region rich in the heritage of the Indus Valley Civilisation. Trained in miniature painting at the National College of Arts (NCA), Lahore, Hussain’s work challenges the boundaries between high art and low craft, reinterpreting traditional weaving and brick-building techniques within a contemporary artistic framework. Drawing from his Sindhi roots, he integrates artisanal weaving—historically considered "low craft"—with the precision and aesthetics of miniature painting, creating a unique dialogue between tradition and modernity. His technique, defined by simplicity, repetition, and geometric abstraction, opens new possibilities for both the artist and the viewer, transforming textile-based mediums into conceptual art. Hussain’s work has been exhibited nationally and internationally at renowned institutions, including: Devi Art Foundation Museum (New Delhi, India) Fifth Beijing International Art Biennial (National Art Museum, China) Rockefeller Brothers Artist Residency (New York, USA) The Artist Students League Residency (New York, USA) Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (Pakistan) Satrang Art Gallery (Islamabad, Pakistan) Sanat Initiative (Karachi, Pakistan) Rohtas 2 Gallery (Lahore, Pakistan) O Art Space Gallery (Lahore, Pakistan) ArtSoch Gallery (Lahore, Pakistan) Hussain continues exploring the intersection of craft, abstraction, and cultural identity through his work, positioning traditional techniques within contemporary global discourse.

“The Lost Center” This work is a meditation on absence. Not the absence of form, but of direction — of belonging — of center. We live in a time where everything surrounds, but nothing holds. Where we move, speak, build, and consume — yet forget where the center is… or was. This surface, marked by time and wear, holds no beginning or end. It is the memory of grounding, cracked and faded. I use this material not to create an image, but to let it speak for itself stained with all that we ignored: The silence of forests. The breath of rivers. The memory of hands that once built with care. We are no longer centered. Not in cities, not in bodies, not in belief. This work is not a warning — it is a whisper from what we abandoned. It asks: “When did we lose our center — and what will it take to return?” In that question lives the promise of healing. Not through control, but through humility. Not by building more, but by listening deeper. This is my offering to The Lost Center — a space to grieve, reflect, and begin again. Artist Ghulam Hussain

Giovanni Gambasin, surrealist artist, explores the boundary between dream and reality through symbolic and visionary works. Using mixed media on paper and wood, he reflects on themes like ecology, time, and meditation, creating imaginary worlds that inspire reflection.

"Off-Center Symmetry" emerges from the tension between reality and dream, in a time when nature demands to be heard. Imaginary figures, born from pencil and paper texture, evoke a lost balance: the lost center. The work reflects ecological urgency and the search for a new direction, where art becomes a compass to rediscover harmony between humanity and the environment.

How to heal the World Bank

Video (10min)

A participative action How to Heal... is a conceptual ritual, based on the idea that our leaders, heads of banks and multinationals, etc. have lost awareness of themselves as organic beings and imagines that within their bodies there lies a scared and defenceless animal in danger of becoming extinct. The ritual invokes a symbolic possession in the hope that they will change their policies and begin to protect the planet and our fellow species.

An invitation to change paradigm and instead of seeing the Earth as Mother to see them as a lover. Inspired by the philosophy of artists Beth Stephens and Annie Sprinkle, this short film explores a different way to relate to nature. Produced for the One Minutes in collaboration with Anna Maria Staiano, the short was filmed on location in the natural park El Saler by Valencia in Spain.

Their performances and video art have been shown in festivals and exhibitions at the Venice Biennale, the Edinburgh International Festival, ICA (London), CCCB and MACBA (Barcelona)

The theme of the festival is quite inspiring as the environmental crisis is part of a wider crisis related to the fact that the human race seems to have lost many of the qualities which formed part of our core essential being, like empathy, love and respect. The lack of connection to our fellow species and to the environment - seen by many as a resource to be exploited- is one of the major causes of this crisis and art can help to awaken this conscience and reconnect our species to the planet.

We are leaving in a time of over stimulation, too much noise, news and speed disconnection from nature from community even from self uncertainty, warm climate crisis, economic pressure, burnout and emotional fatigue. As a result, we lost patience with others with time with ourselves, we become reactive instead of reflective. Our inner word shrinks aren’t as a medicine for patient.  Art requires patients and teaches it to sculpt is to wait to paint is to listen to shape something with your hands is to remember the rhythm of breathe And dignity of slowness. Art becomes a scared. Pause in the act of creating re, learn how to be present, this is healing, not in theory, but in practical art is our healing ground where we breathe, feel and mend.

Stoneware Clay / 38.2 x 16.5 x 16.5 cm / 2025

 

A ceramic sculpture of a body-less cloak, shaped by wheel and hand. It evokes the feeling of someone who left, wrapped for a journey, remembered in absence. The textured surface and empty folds speak of protection, retreat, and the imprint of quiet departure.

The Lost Center speaks to a world that has drifted from its emotional, cultural, and spiritual anchors. My sculptural work reflects this through garments shaped in clay, absent of bodies, yet full of memory. These silent vessels echo the crisis of disconnection, where presence lingers but the center is gone.

자연(객관적 세계)을 보며 창작(주관적 세계)을 한다는 것은 결국, 끊임없이 의식과 무의식의 경계를 넘나들며 형상을 그려내는 것이다. 자연과 나의 조화를 통한 이상적 심상 표현이란 것은, 의식과 무의식간의 소통이 이뤄질 때, 어느 한 지점을 심상으로 떠올려서 창작하고 표현하는 일인 것이다.

자연으로부터 위로받고 싶다. 무한의 에너지와 오묘하고 아름다운 자연에서 말이다. 오늘도 쉼 없이 바쁜 일상들과 무엇 때문인지도 모르는 채 분주한 나날들의 연장선에 놓여 있는 나를 발견한다.
자연의 원초적 생명력과 우리가 탄생하기 이전부터 있어온 에너지가 살아 있는 그곳의 울창한 숲과 바람을 캔버스에 물감을 두껍게 바르고 때론 긁어내리기도 하고 형체를 없애버리고 다시 만들고 한다. 다양한 색을 겹쳐보기도 하면서 오랜 세월 찌든 때를 빼어 낸 후 깊은 휴식에 든다.
어느 순간부터인가 상대적 박탈감으로 부터 멈추지 못하는 마음이 자연에게 따뜻한 위로를 받고 있는 것을 느낀다. 시대의 불평등으로부터 힘겨운 마음을 안고 살아가는 사람들과 자연의 충만한 에너지를 함께 나누고자 시시때때로 변화하는 자연의 찬란한 빛과 태초의 에너지를 그리고 있다

《山坡上的牡蛎小馆》以双联构图展开一段介于记忆与梦境 之间的图像叙事。左幅大片留白,与浓墨掩映的林木形成强烈对比,暗示山坡之上的幽静与隐逸。右幅描绘 一座掩映于繁花之下的小餐馆,亭台、伞影、长椅交错其间,色彩点染中隐含生活的温度。作品创作于2019 年,作者赴韩国龙仁市参加美术作品展览期间,在驻地外的山坡上发现一家专门经营牡蛎的小馆,现场写生 即景,以水墨结合当代色彩的方式,凝录了异国风景与情感体验。牡蛎小馆既可视为真实存在的空间,也似 乎是画者心中的栖居之所,介于山水与人间、物质与精神之间,悄然浮现。此作展现了艺术家在水墨语言中 的探索与转换,同时传递出一种对日常风景的诗意凝视。

山坡上的牡蛎小馆The Oyster Bistro on the Hillside

Chinese ink painting  28x60cm  2019

The Oyster Bistro on the Hillside is a plein air ink painting created in 2019 during an exhibition residency in Yongin, South Korea. It depicts a quiet hillside with a small oyster restaurant nestled among trees and blossoming branches. Combining traditional ink techniques with subtle color, the work evokes both the physical landscape and an emotional, poetic atmosphere—a serene meeting of nature and human life.

My name is Hanna Lysenko, and I am an artist and educator from Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine. In 2002, I graduated from college with a degree in Fine and Decorative Arts. Later, I earned a Master's degree in Pedagogy from the Classical Private University in Zaporizhzhia. In 2023, I completed my postgraduate studies at the Kharkiv State Academy of Design and Arts, and in 2024, I successfully defended my dissertation, obtaining a PhD in Art Studies. Currently, I am pursuing a Master's degree in Psychology. My research interests lie in the fields of art and art therapy. For many years, I have been working as a lecturer at the Department of Design at Khortytsia National Educational and Rehabilitation Academy. Alongside my academic career, I am actively engaged in artistic practice. I am passionate about painting and watercolor, exploring these art forms in depth. I have participated in regional and international exhibitions. I have recently begun working on a series of paintings titled "Breath of the Elements". This series is a visual exploration of the primal forces of nature as a metaphor for the inner world of a person. I use the language of elemental forms, movement, and color to convey the universal rhythms of existence — breath, pulsation, and transformation. Each work captures a moment of transition between states: light and darkness, calm and motion, emergence and dissolution. These images do not depict literal nature but rather archetypal sensations of elemental breath, present in both the cosmos and the human spirit. I am pleased to present my works from this series, arranged in reverse chronological order, from the most recent to the earliest:

Celestial Dance

oil on canvas, palette knife, 30x30cm, 2025

This painting presents a dynamic celestial landscape, rendered with voluminous, textured impasto strokes. Ascending clouds are depicted in rich blue-green hues, punctuated by vibrant yellow and pink accents. A luminous white sun radiates from the left, while the horizon is imbued with warm orange-yellow tones. The work effectively conveys the grandeur and motion of elemental forces.

I started photography in the 70s with a film camera and now with a digital camera. My interests include street photography, everyday life phenomena, music and landscapes. For me, photography is a window into reality and part of a social narrative. My photos are mostly B&W and I use digital image editing software.

BIEAF2025's "Lost Center - Art in Crisis" is not only important in this chaotic atmosphere we live in, but it is also a cry for help for the future. Art is one way go forward to srtenghten the Center. Art is for to speek and ask.

Yesterday - Today

Photography (digital/print) /

70x50 cm (300 dpi) / 2025

The world is increasingly chaotic, and it seems that we have lost our understanding of history and its consequences for the environment and our daily lives. What are we doing to nature and humanity? In my B&W photograph, an old building has collapsed after a devastating fire. The structures of the room speak of pain, violence and loss of life. The view reflects the echoes of a past world and the grief experienced. In the midst of chaos, there are also signs of hope and light. That is what art is for.
