Revolue
Working as an artist for two decades, REVOLUE (@revolue) has developed a recognizable personal style which can be characterized as a mixture between the urban street art and the classical artistic approach with the observation of human behavior and habits as the emphasis of his work.
Born in São Paulo, REVOLUE is inspired by the urban city's chaos, streets, and inhabitants. He has transferred a lot of aspects of his home city on canvas. REVOLUE believes that faces serve as a reflection of our essence: “It is in the face that we see the expression of our personalities and experiences, as well as our true feelings.”
REVOLUE has adopted mixed techniques ranging from oil painting to less traditional elements such as crayons and spray. His expressive works portray the nuances of chaotic human nature.
The artist is currently represented by galleries in Vienna, New York, and Miami and has gained both national and international acclaim. He has presented his works at the exhibitions in major venues of the contemporary art world in New York, Los Angeles, Amsterdam, Lisbon, London, Paris, Vienna, São Paulo.

Jeremy Wolff
Jeremy Wolff is a NYC based contemporary artist with a focus in pop culture and current events. Since 2014, Wolff has become a world renowned artist – he has worked with major brands like Tommy Hilfiger and has been being featured in publications like Forbes. Most notably, Wolff has been named the Resident Artist of the Empire State Building since January 2019 and has a permanent installation at Montefiore Children’s Hospital in the Bronx.
With a background in Mass Communications and Fine Art, Wolff blends various styles to create a unique look that has transformed into his own aesthetic. Taking traditional painting techniques of portraits, landscapes, and cartoons, and mixing it with his spray paint style abstract background, he blends a more modern look with a street/pop art feel.
In an age when computers and technology are becoming extremely prevalent, we will begin to see more and more scientifically advanced and engineered equipment. Robots if you will. The Bio-Mechanical Series was influenced by many things, most noticeably Terminator. However, it is also a representation of a new digital age. It is a representation of technology in general. Which is why it is perfect to begin exploring this theme as NFTs. Iconic imagery and legendary characters will be transformed. The Bio-Mechanical Age is upon us.

Slim
Andy Simm, aka slim, was born in the northwest UK in 1974 and has been involved around the local art scene since his early teens. He got started when he was creating flyers for raves for extra money as a secondary school pupil. He has always had a really creative side and has used art as a way to express himself. "Painting is my vehicle to show how I'm feeling at a certain time. I find it fascinating that just with a blank canvas and paint I can open doors and meet people that walk totally different lives. I've been lucky enough to have worked in some great galleries and have put work on lots of walls. I'm thankful that people are intrigued by art and for the opportunities I've received from it."
