Jeff Soto

Jeff Soto has been travelling through various planes of the art world since graduating from Art Center College of Design, California in 2002. He began experimenting with graffiti while in High School before taking a ten year break to concentrate on illustration and fine art after University.

With his roots based in graffiti as well as painting, Soto has managed to successfully bridge the gap between Street Art and Pop Surrealism, crossing over while remaining relevant in both genres.

Jeremy Geddes

Perhaps best known for his Cosmonaut series depicting figures peacefully floating in zero gravity, Melbourne-based artist Jeremy Geddes’ photorealist works have a haunting stillness to them. Even when depicting women bursting through windows or walls, there is still silence.

His muted colour palette, coupled with his ability to capture a certain light, create an incredible atmosphere with an immense depth to them. Using surrealist imagery and urban settings, Geddes’ intent is to leave the narrative ambiguous and open to interpretation.
