The Race Behind The Hill

Athens - based Michalis Baboussis is the creative mind behind the alternative online project The Race Behind the Hill. Being a multitalented person with styling, photography, fashion design, creative writing, video art and graphic design among his interests and activities, Michalis enters into a dialogue process through each of his different roles and collaborations. He started his artistic journey after graduating from AKTO school of Arts & Design doing great collaborations with the Callas, art photographers Spyros Staveris and Photoharrie, artist H.O.P.E and online art mag Mixtape.gr just to name a few. His deeper need for communication and dialogue with more greek and foreign artists urged him to create The Race Behind The Hill platform in 2009, making it a constant in-progress project based on DIY aesthetics. The strictly black & white, male-figured images combined with poster poems attached in urban locations connote the artist's intention to create a rather different, virtual human race, inspired by the principles of mysticism and neoplatonism. I think it's one of the best greek online projects, loaded with amazing images, don't forget to visit.

Danish designer Trine Lindegaard specializes in avant-garde menswear fashion. Trine is a graduate of  the Instituto Carlo Secoli in Milan, the Middlessex University in London and the Royal College of Art, while her graduate collection was voted among the ones to watch by Vogue.com. Since her graduation she started evolving rapidly by selling her own label through ASOS, also collaborating with textile designer Elisabeth Buecher on a special label titled Move Me Shirts, currently on sale at the Tate Modern.

Her new exciting collection for next summer is dealing with Trine's favourite elements: bright colours, experimental sewing techniques and playfulness. The result is a desirable and extravagant collection, a celebration of everyday objects with rubber bands widely layered and stitched together to create an intriguing play of different dimensions on sweaters, pants, shorts, impressive coats, even on wigs. She's a genious, really can't wait to see her next collection.

Nuptus by Sylvio Giardina

The S/S 2012 collection of fashion designer and visual artist Sylvio Giardina is titled Nuptus and is inspired by clouds and their ever-changing forms. Playing with proportions, volumes and the sphericity of the feamle figure, Giardina gave his garments a fluid, almost liquid form with the use of polyethelene foam and Swarovski-crystal-embellished jersey.
The result is an outstanding game of sculpture and movement.

Miss Aniela

Miss Aniela is a fine art and commercial photographer from London. Her work has been featured in big media like Vogue Italia, the Guardian, BBC, NY Arts and more, exhibited internationally in Europe and US, while her two books "Self Portrait Photography" & "Creative Portrait Photography" have been massive hits.
Her images mostly feature ethereal figures, often multiple, defeating gravity, mysterious creatures from another dimension. Even her commercial works are pure art, moving beyond ordinary product campaigns, finally becoming classics.

She says about her work:
"I pour my mind into everything I create, and always aim to push the envelope with consistently compelling imagery with the highest production value possible. Photography is always my 'living' whether I am working on personal or commercial work, because it is creating that keeps me feeling alive. I want to stir people to question and to think, intelligibly - about the problems, the beauty, and the conflict between them, in the world around us today."

Miss Aniela is also active with events, workshops and talks, having delivered talks, photo-walks and workshops for Microsoft and Phase One.
She has also self-branded her own workshop-style event, the 'Fashion Shoot Experience' in London, to be extended to NYC in 2012.
