Kylli Sparre is a visual artist based in Tallinn, Estonia.
In her work, Sparre desires to look beneath the surface, hear the unsaid words and study the relationships between people and their surroundings. Her background in dance is often influencing her images: the movements and the carefully observed bodies play a big part in her work. The artist tells you a story where subject and surrounding can become one. It thereby almost transforms into a dance. Although her work can be theatrical, there is always an utter sense of peace emerging from it. Whether the images are surreal, dreamlike or symbolic, they come from her thoughts, observations and experiences.
Sparre’s work is internationally praised and she was rewarded with the Sony World Photography Award 2014.

Julien Tabet is a young French digital creator, born in 1997 in Rennes.
He studied Graphic Design and Webdesign there, before starting as a full-time freelance designer at the age of 22.
In 2017, he started sharing his work on Instagram in parallel with his studies. Thanks to his surreal images, he quickly built a community on the platform.
His specialty is to relook animals by re-interpreting the laws of Nature, in order to share a world different from the one we know. His images are made of fantasy, fun, poetry, and seem to have no limits.
Inspired by the artists of the surrealist movement such as Salvador Dali or René Magritte, he focuses on the subjects he deals with to bring out the best in them with his own interpretation. According to him, animals are incredibly interesting because of their innocence and anonymity. No one can prove that the animals he depicts don't exist.
His work is 100% digital. He creates using Photoshop, combining photography and illustration. He always pays attention to detail, on the border between realism and fantasy.

Bara’s surreal images balance on the edge of beauty and weirdness, in between real and fictional set ups, originating from her sense of absurd humour and affinity for lightness that helps her to cope with serious topics. Instead of manipulating images digitally in post production as to render a magical ambience, Bara works with real props and objects, which lend her subjects a rare authenticity. She meticulously plans all of her shoots in advance, and her detailed sketches, custom-made props and costumes are usually part of her exhibitions.
Including a Hasselblad Masters Award in 2014, Bara has been a recipient of numerous awards, such as the winner of the Photographer of the Year 2009 and 2011 by Czech Grand Design and her first director’s feat has been awarded bronze by prestigious Clio Awards in 2019. Equally many commercial assignments have been requested by clients, such as Vitra, Ikea, The Czech National Theatre and the Newsweek magazine.
Recently, she has branched out into the world of moving images, creating videos based on her stills, which has created another outlet for her to build a new reality.
