For Summer’16 show Karine introduces the impressionist landscape series composed of silk tapestries and oil on canvas paintings. Her Spotte-exclusive collections are inspired by a verse in Henry Lawson’s poem "The Bushfire": It is daylight again, and the fire is past, and the black scrub silent and grim, Except for the blaze of an old dead tree, or the crash of a falling limb...

For her series for Spotteart, Lori Glavin presents Helen Frankenthaler reminiscent bold, Color Field oil on paper abstractions. “My work is inspired by the visual clatter of the mundane places I know best, the domestic environment, or the tilted landscape of my weekend garden.” - Lori

He was also a recipient of the National Young Artists Photography grant awarded by The National Fund for  Culture and Arts in Mexico twice. Shandor’s photography has been exhibited internationally.
