Editorial – Issue 87
Why this editorial is special to us. This editorial comes from a very different place than usual. It is not driven solely by professional reflection or the desire to share ideas, but by a profound change in our lives that has reshaped the way we understand work, projects, and the future. In recent months, we have received news that has completely changed our course: the arrival of a new life that will make us parents for the first time. An experience that is already teaching us, even before its arrival, that there are priorities that go beyond any professional goal, and that true success is not always measured by results, but by the meaning we give to each step.
Interview with Ioanna Stefou
Ioanna Stefou is an architect and painter currently based in Athens, Greece. Fascinated by painting from a very young age, she gradually developed a deep passion for realism and for the expressive power of the human figure. After working as an architect for more than a decade, painting became her primary focus, especially after 2014, when she attended a course at the New York Academy of Art.
Editorial – A Season of Renewal
In this issue, we are especially pleased to present new talent defined by freshness, elegance, and, above all, delicacy. We believe art reveals itself most powerfully when it is allowed to exist in its perfect moment, when its presence feels both immediate and lasting. It is through that sensitivity that we are able to appreciate the new visual languages, refined approaches, and emerging perspectives that continue to shape both the professional and emerging spheres of figurative art. Over the years, our community has brought together outstanding figurative artists whose work reflects a remarkable range of expression and technical ability, from deeply sensitive portraits to sculptures of extraordinary naturalism and presence. Each new edition becomes, for us, another opportunity to continue that dialogue between mastery, discovery, and artistic evolution.
Interview with Raúl Campos
Raúl Campos Herrera (Querétaro, 1992) is a Mexican figurative painter whose work has steadily established itself as one of the most compelling voices within contemporary realism in Latin America. Rooted in a rigorous academic foundation, his practice is centered on the human figure as a primary vehicle for narrative and introspection, allowing him to investigate themes such as the human condition, psychological tension, and collective memory.
Editorial – Issue 86
We have entered the fourth month of the year, and with the arrival of spring, we step into a new chapter for our magazine with an issue defined by renewal, intention, and a forward-looking vision.

Interview with Halee Roth
Halee Roth is a contemporary painter whose work explores the human figure as a bridge between emotion and introspection. Working from her studio surrounded by nature, she blends the influence of German Expressionism with a deep sensitivity to color, light, and the human experience. Trained at Utah State University and shaped by her time in Germany and India, her practice balances classical technique with a contemporary expressive language marked by intimacy, vulnerability, and emotional strength.
Color, Emotion, and Essence:Interview with Rosa Rodríguez
Rosa Rodríguez Gordillo is a Mexican contemporary figurative artist born in Torreón, Coahuila, in 1982. Originally from northern Mexico, she holds a degree in Communication Sciences from Universidad Iberoamericana, Laguna campus. Her academic background has influenced her ability to construct narrative-driven imagery and develop a distinctive visual language within contemporary figurative painting. Her first exposure to art began in her mother’s studio, where she grew up surrounded by painting materials, creative discipline, and artistic experimentation. This early immersion shaped her intuitive understanding of artistic processes and laid the foundation for her professional path as a Mexican figurative painter.
Editorial – Issue 84
It seems that nowadays art is measured with a calculator in hand. Every canvas, every sculpture, every installation is first considered for its investment potential and only then, if at all, for what it might evoke in the viewer. What was once an intimate encounter with creativity, an almost sacred experience between the work and the observer, has gradually been transformed into a transaction. Art has become a financial product: it is auctioned, speculated upon, collected... and, far too often, forgotten.

Editorial – Issue 83
Sometimes the world seems to move too fast. Uncertainty, anxiety, and the constant rhythm of everyday life can easily overwhelm us. In the middle of that noise, art appears as a refuge: a place where we can breathe, pause for a moment, and reconnect with something deeper within ourselves. This month we celebrate painting as that vibrant and protective space. Color, light, and form have the power to move us, to slow our thoughts, and to remind us that wonder still exists. Each artwork becomes a small pause in the day, an invitation to look carefully, to imagine freely, and to rediscover the quiet pleasure of contemplation.

Emerging from their return to the child care institution where they grew up, the project is built on participation, responsibility, and shared time.

Editorial – Issue 81
February insists on speaking about love, but art
has been doing so for centuries without softening it. Because love has never been only something beautiful. It is intensity, conflict, desire, loss. It is an experience that moves through the body and leaves marks, which is why it has been one of the most powerful forces in artistic creation.
