Her inspiration comes from the impres- sionists and their study of light conveyed over a day. Intersects with her interest of rituals and myth. Using allegory she explores our inner voice and acts of contemplation as we try to unravel and understand ourselves; our response to aspects of our life that at times are as mysterious as the Universe.

54 Mei-Lin Lin www.flickr.com/photos/45204069@N03/page3 Image creation is more than combining colours and shapes. In the creation process, the creator endeavours to enable the artwork to narrate her obser- vation of the boundless universe. Thus, in Mei-Lin Lin’s creations, she uses a combination of painting and photography layering, similar to image super- imposition in the multiple exposure technique of photography. By integrating the various layers of images using post production techniques, a novel and colourful picture is created. Using stark contrasting colour blocks and uncon- ventional methods, she hopes to guide viewers into her interpreted world. Hue digital collage 2015Hidden Treasure Art eMagazine Christmas 2016

56 Oren Golan www.artoren.comLady in Ruins / infrared photography and b&w processing / 60cm x 40cm / 2014I work as a freelance photographer and specialise in public relation, products, fashion and special processingeffects. However, I prefer dedicating most of my time to art and finding ways to getting my messages heard. Bornin 1975 in Israel, from a very young age I felt passionate about photography. I received my first camera when Iwas about eight years old and started to document my friends. Only at the age of 27, after struggling betweenmy dreams and ideas, I decided to become a professional photographer. I studied multi-media at Sivan Collagein 1999-2002 and then photography at “The Studio” Art College in Ra’a’nana, Israel in 2003-2004. Alwaysdriven by a concept, I describe myself as a documentary photographer eager to provoke my audience with mes-sages and raw images that most people shy away from. Each frame I capture is about a dialogue between 2–3elements … it’s the dialogue that inspires my work.

60 Fu Wenjun www.fuwenjun.com Nepotism conceptual photography 140 x 175 cm 2015 Fu Wenjun, Chinese important conceptual photography artist, talks about history of art; it’s not a means, but the main goal. He therefore analyses some aspects which are meant to express a timeless concept. In this way, the expression of every artwork becomes a thesis with no possi- bility of anti-thesis, full of proofs which we find again many times in history, western and oriental, to remember that history is repeat- ing itself and that the mankind as a whole has similarities beyond geo-cultural position.

She has been drawn to the use ofstatuary as a conduit between the physicaland metaphysical; concrete objects tran-scend the inherent limitations of the physicaland provide a channel through which hiddenmeaning is unlocked. Wood is the perfectmedium to explore concepts of the cyclicalnature of life, containing within each piece aliving history and future all its own. The rec-reation of wood into sculpture captures thetransformative spirit of our own life cycles,and has the capacity to make any space sa-cred.

67 WHY ARTISTS SHOULD BE PAID FOR THEIR ARTWORK?“Artists shouldn’t be paid for their art. Getting paid prevents them from cre-ating really good stuff.” - I read somewhere online.I want to make three points about Art, Contribution and Money with thisarticle:Your art is a contribution to society. It brings joy, it solves problems, and itmakes this world a better place.Being paid allows you to make that contribution to society.Your contribution expands in relation to the amount of time you put into it.More hours means expanded contribution to this world with your God-giventalent.“Artists are better off working a job they hate and then painting in theirspare time.”This is the problem I have with that:No one should work a job they hate. You were put on this earth with talentsand you are meant to do that which you are good at and what you love!The world is missing out on your contribution. The less an artist creates,the less they grow. It requires hours upon hours to hone your craft.Charging for your artwork enables you to make a contribution to the worldwith your art. It allows you to develop your style and to get better and betterat what you do.As long as we are stuck in a money based system, I find it an outright insultto all hardworking artists to say they shouldn’t be paid for what they do.It’s just a crazy notion that this one, single profession should work for free!(While everyone else gets paid.)

When looking at his works, one word comes to mind ‘Emotion’, because one experiences a great pleasure, produced by the creative impulses of the artist, which are marked by the seal of extreme sensitivity. Marian Sava ap- proaches the abstract art in his very nuanced man- ner, without ever falling on the side of pure and hard abstraction. He passes smoothly, from the strict im- age of a subject to the creation of new unexpected forms (...)

72 WHAT MAKES AN ARTWORK GREAT? After contemplating what it is about certain artworks and artists that remain relevant over time, There are three main considerations: Motivation: The purpose for creating; connection to the subject; the intentional concept, message, or emotion that the artist is passionate about capturing. Execution: Technical proficiency; ability and confidence in the vari- ous principles of art so that the concept, message, or emotion comes through skillfully and convincingly. Expression: A unique style; the heart and soul of the artist; where we see his/her hand and feel what he or she was feeling; that “it” factor of the work that takes you to the time and place of the artist who cre- ated it and lets you become lost in the moment conveyed. In short, great art comes from great artists. Because, more than an- ything, the end product is a direct reflection of the mind, heart, soul, and life experience of the one creating it. When artists think and feel deeply, respect the responsibility that goes with their calling, and have a genuine connection to and interest in their subject matter, they are on their way to greatness. And if their motivation, execution, and expression are operating at high levels of skill and sincerity, great paintings can naturally occur.
