'Notre Arte': 31 Works Showing How Art Can Say What Words Cannot

"For me, this series is the most sensual, in it I wanted to not miss any single detail: hair, brushes, toes and hands, curves. I did a very good selection of patterns. Models from China, Japan, Indonesia, Germany, Sweden, USA and Russia came to the shoot. I had to go around 8 different locations in search of the perfect holes. On the first day of shooting, the hole was swept away by sand, and the drone did not produce the necessary quality, exactly a month later was the third day of shooting. Such shooting is possible only with minimal water. The drone of the best quality was found, 10 minutes before the shooting began to rain, and then suddenly stopped. It took one and a half hours just to unfold each model perfectly, I am very grateful to the girls for their trust, lying naked in the water with fish and crabs for 20 minutes, without moving, in not the most comfortable positions - worth a lot. This series for me symbolizes the rebirth of women of all nationalities on one island in Indonesia. Rejecting former notions, frames imposed on us by society. Accepting your power, accepting your freedom, accepting your body, returning to your true nature, this is literally the womb of an island, a reef, where we are all united by one meaning, one goal - to give this world love."

Anastasia Mez works in mixed media, using photographic processes to construct images that feel assembled rather than captured. A recurring method in her practice is Polaroid emulsion transfer, in which the gelatin layer of a developed Polaroid is released with hot water and relocated onto another photographic surface.

Through this process, separate images are brought into contact, allowing fragments of time, texture, and memory to coexist within a single frame. The resulting works carry a sense of delicacy and material presence, positioned between photography, collage, and experimental image-making.

Sandrine Torredemer, known as La Filature, is a French textile artist who transforms salvaged fabrics and textiles into intricate, embroidered miniature scenes.
