Sven-Ulrik Beck Burchard - January 2026
Sven-Ulrik Beck Burchard is a Danish visual artist based in Nørrebro, Copenhagen.
There’s a soft tension between the familiar and the mysterious in Burchard’s work. He describes it as a feeling of freedom, untouched by doubt or judgment. Originally trained and employed as a graphic designer for over a decade, he experienced a pivotal shift in late 2022, redirecting his creative focus toward the more introspective and expressive realms of fine art. Working across mediums including pencil, wax, and oil pastels, acrylics, and experimental materials, Burchard embraces a spontaneous and exploratory approach to making. His practice is rooted in a deep engagement with self-reflection, often describing the creative process as an act of witnessing his inner world from the outside in.
Theresia Zhang - November 2026
Theresia Zhang is a New York–based illustrator and oil painter working at the intersection of literature, performance, and visual storytelling. She received her BFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art and her MFA from the New York Academy of Art.
Calling her approach Reversed Chinoiserie, rather than the Western fantasy of the “East,” she looks outward from a Chinese perspective, examining how urban life shapes longing, distance, and our fragile relationship to nature. Windows, armor, and theatrical spaces appear in her work as borders between intimacy and isolation.
Fiona Ackerman - October 2026
Fiona Ackerman is a Canadian painter whose fluid, process-driven approach combines spontaneity with meticulous detail. Vibrant and expressive, her paintings and murals reflect a deep engagement with both abstraction and representation, often exploring philosophy, urban life, and the natural world. Many of Ackerman’s projects have been accompanied by video and sound pieces, acting as a performative artist statement linking her paintings to her conceptual approach and production process. Her work is collected and exhibited internationally. She works from series to series, from her studio in Vancouver, BC.
For this collection, Ackerman turns to smaller mixed-media works on paper—playful, intuitive experiments in color, mark-making, and material. Created after an intense period of monochrome surrealism, these vibrant pieces embrace looseness, collage-like energy, and spontaneity. Their titles are drawn from B-52s songs, the soundtrack to her creative recharge.
Simon Ganshorn - August 2025
Simon Ganshorn is a multidisciplinary artist whose work emerges from a deep, embodied sense of ancestral memory and past-life experience. Rooted in a recurring vision of knighthood—visceral, vivid, and haunting—his paintings function less as expressions and more as transmissions, surfacing atmospheres and fragments from a time out of joint. Working from what he calls “memory, if memory could be seen,” his practice explores nonlinear time, ritual, and repetition through layered, intuitive mark-making. Based in [Copenhagen], he continues to investigate the loop between past and present, using art as a conduit for stories long buried in silence.

Ryann Woods Ham -June 2025
Ryann Woods Ham is a New York-based artist who works in painting, printmaking, and ceramics. Trained in graphic design, her entry into fine art emerged through a more intuitive, self-directed practice rooted in observation and personal ritual. Raised in a Latter-day Saint household in Northern California, her work often engages with the quiet mechanics of belief—its cycles, its demands, and the vulnerability it requires. Themes of doubt and devotion, risk and tenderness, surface throughout her practice, reflecting a sensitivity to the emotional logic that underlies human connection and spiritual longing.
Her recent monoprints inhabit a liminal space between memory and imagination—dreamlike scenes formed through spontaneous mark-making and layered impressions. These images retain the ghosts of earlier gestures and are often bound together with pencil or pastel, evoking a sense of emotional residue and narrative ambiguity. Woods Ham is drawn to the interior world of feeling, exploring the way love, desire, and distance shift over time. Her work invites viewers into a contemplative space—tender, unsettled, and deeply internal—where emotions act as both messengers and companions.
Igor Sokol - April / May 2025
Igor Sokol is a New York-based artist working across painting, sculpture, and design. His creative journey began in Rivne, Ukraine, where he grew up solving problems by making things—mending, crafting, and replicating what wasn’t readily available. That hands-on curiosity evolved into a lifelong exploration of form, color, and perception.
After moving to the U.S. in 2008, painting became a way for him to navigate the complexities of cultural duality with nature playing a central role in his process. Its cycles and contrasts—light and shadow, stillness and movement, presence and absence—mirror the emotional rhythms of life. Sokol reduces his subjects to essential forms, stripping away unnecessary detail to leave room for imagination and personal interpretation.
Whether referencing organic structures or architectural elements, he aims to create a quiet space for reflection—an emotional dialogue between the seen and the unseen.
