TMNK (The Me Nobody Knows) is a contemporary New York Urban artist associated with the street tag "NOBODY CARE$". His bold, vibrant pieces are a play on opposites: words / symbols, sharp lines/blurred shapes and raw/figurative styles. TMNK believes that street art has a unique set of aesthetics. Describing it as his " weapon", he sees it as a voice for the disenfranchised and ultimately a vehicle for personal salvation and social change.
Actively seeking interaction through social media, Kathryn Usher is an artist and video-maker working and residing in Shreveport, Louisiana (USA). Influenced by popular culture, voodoo and politics, Kathryn creates pieces from traditional materials (such as acrylics), objects (including bottles, toilet paper rolls and tea bags) and less tactile mediums such as digital art. The purpose of her art is to question not why, but rather why not.
Karin van der Plas is a Dutch, London-based artist who creates works inspired by world mythology, Aboriginal/Maori art, Russian Icons and social history. Meticulously researched in museums and libraries, her works are populated by historical and mythological figures. Karin subjects are created from a series of smooth, vibrantly coloured brush strokes and are adorned with found objects such as plastic dolls, cut-out text, fabric and buttons. Her work highlights how history is interpreted - through fragments of memory and an array of apparently unconnected objects.
