Helmut Koller is best known for his vibrant large-scale canvases of animals rendered in a “New Pop” style that contrasts fantastical colours with detailed and realistic anatomy. “These paintings are iconic portraits of sentient beings,” says the artist, “supreme beauties without a reference of time and space, esoteric manipulations of nature.”

Farizwan Fajari, professionally known as *Speak Cryptic, is an artist currently working and living in Singapore.
The moniker “Speak Cryptic” originated from a public art campaign of the same name that started in 2005, exploring issues pertaining to self-censorship and the public space.
