Evgeny Batievsky belongs to that rare category of artists whose creative language refuses to remain within a single discipline. Based in Sochi, the Russian photographer moves between visual storytelling, sound engineering and DJ culture, carrying something from each field into the next. Rhythm, atmosphere, tension and silence find their way […]
Wataru Shindo doesn’t like being introduced. Ask him what he does, and he’ll tell you it’s complicated. Musician, yes, but also someone who ties people up in front of an audience and calls it trust made visible. He talks about both the same way: no ego, no mystique, just two […]
In Bali, design rarely exists in isolation from its surroundings. For its fifth edition, Jia CURATED moves closer to the elements themselves, relocating to a beachfront setting where sand, stone, vegetation, shifting light and the sea become part of the exhibition’s spatial vocabulary. Running from August 13–17, 2026, the event […]
There is an unmistakable stillness inhabiting Dmitri Plehanov‘s photography, one that emerges long before the viewer begins to decipher the details of the image. Working from Moscow, the Russian photographer has devoted much of his artistic practice to nude and portrait photography, developing a visual language where beauty is never […]

In Nikolay Bobrovskiy’s photographs, the body is never treated as an object to be displayed. It becomes a place of encounter, between light and skin, presence and absence, vulnerability and self-possession. His images unfold slowly, with an attention that refuses haste. What emerges is not simply the nude figure, but […]
There is a particular kind of music that never seeks immediate recognition. It reveals itself gradually, asking for patience instead of urgency and closeness instead of spectacle. Black Water inhabits that quiet territory, where every composition unfolds with remarkable restraint, allowing atmosphere, memory, and subtle emotional shifts to shape an […]
Marat Safin has long occupied a singular place within contemporary Russian photography. Based in Moscow, he has cultivated a visual language distinguished by tactile textures and an exceptional sensitivity to narrative. Every photographic series unfolds like a fragment of a larger literary universe, inviting the viewer into stories that seem […]
There is a kind of music that gets made because the alternative, not making it, would be worse. Jake Sinetos has been building Mazmere from the Peak District for a few years now, threading post-punk edges and ambient drift into something that sits slightly outside genre, slightly outside comfort, and […]
