Bluenight . Italy

Bluenight (pseudonym of Federico Cittaro, born in Italy, 1969) is a contemporary artist, poet, and traveller whose work explores the intersection between emotion, matter, and energy. He began his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna in 1992, completing his thesis “Clipboard of a Pictorial Research in Becoming” in 1999. His ongoing project, which he defines as quantum painting, reflects his deep interest in transformation, perception, and the invisible dynamics that connect all living forms. Through painting, writing, and continuous exploration, Bluenight investigates the poetic relationship between the visible and the unseen.

Sonia J . Portugal

Sonia J. is an internationally celebrated contemporary artist whose work bridges the decisiveness of leadership with the vulnerability of creative expression. Her journey began in the demanding world of technology, where, as a C-level executive, she led innovation and guided multinational teams. This fast-paced environment sharpened her understanding of resilience and transformation – experiences that now breathe life into her art, infusing it with emotional depth and unapologetic authenticity. Today, her signature style comes to life on bold, large-scale canvases. Defined by vivid colors, dynamic gestures, and layered textures, her work explores themes of feminine empowerment, energy, tension, and the beauty of transformation. Each piece invites viewers to reconnect with their own moments of growth and authenticity.

Margo Kirago . Poland

Margo Kirago is a contemporary Polish painter born in Warsaw, working mainly in oil and acrylic techniques. Her work ranges from abstraction, expressive realism and intuitive painting, building her own style based on emotion, element and form. In her works, she develops characteristic means of expression: geometric backgrounds, balanced contrasts of colours and textures, as well as rhythmic compositions on the border of landscape and abstraction. Her paintings can be found in private collections in Poland and abroad. Art and painting have accompanied her from her earliest years, she developed her skills at art classes and competitions, and over the years she learned new painting techniques and computer graphics. Her higher education and work in the tourism industry, as well as her love for travelling, allowed her to explore the world and draw creative inspiration and decide to take a consistent step towards realising her passion – painting.
