Beth Scher www.bethscher.com Beth Scher’s work is deeply rooted in themes of femininity, feminism and the roles of women in the military theater. In travels to Israel, she became sympathetic to the plight of women conscripted into military service. These are young women in the prime of life, aware of and seek- ing to display their sexuality and vulnerability, yet are also in a position of power. She is concerned about what it means for modern society when women are trained to wage war. Ms. Scher graduated with an MFA from the University of the Arts, Philadelphia, PA, in December 2013. She earned her BA in Studio Art from the University at Albany, Albany, NY in 2008.Women and War, Russia mixed medium 12x12 inches 2014The Swarm, Soldiers and Jeepswatercolour on paper pinned towall, Dimensions variable201316 Hidden Treasure Art Magazine Yearbook

Cecilia Flaten www.flaten.cl Patagonia Sunset oil on canvas 120x90 cm 2009Magic Landscapes inspired in the Norwegian Mythology and inPatagonia´s Lands. In the search of a more tangible art, Cecilia Flatenregards painting as her current great love. At the beginning of her rela-tionship with the medium, Flaten worked in an innocent and playfulway which is demonstrated in her naïve works. In such works she ex-periments with techniques and colours that allude directly to her Scan-dinavian ancestors. Entering into a more mature stage, Flaten beganworking with oil till know, during 20 years, a medium that provides herwith the stability and desired pattern of expression – allowing her torepret properly the legends, myths and the dreams that nest in her mindand in her blood. Her work is a great meditation on natural elements.Blending the fluidic atmosphere of the sky with the blended appearanceof the horizon: she captures the interaction of light and the absorptioninside landscapes. It is a magical and poetic work. The Bows of Tyr oil on canvas 160x130 cm 200828 Hidden Treasure Art Magazine Yearbook
