Luke Rion is a New Zealand born artist, who is currently based out of Melbourne, Australia. For the last decade his practice has explored figurative and still life subjects, with a particular focus on our nostalgic relationship with objects and the negative space in which they inhabit. Rion’s work explores the ephemeral rituals society has with technology and how something so vivid and so relevant in youth fades and eventually becomes discarded and lost.

Aaron Craig is an Australian pop artist based on the Sunshine Coast of Queensland. His paintings are recognisable by the rich blend of pop culture that aim to give the viewer a strong sentiment of nostalgia. Often forging together conflicting elements from cartoons, comics, products and advertising until they become familiar at first glance, but at a second look are completely unique. He references his art style as ‘Pop Mash’.

Aaron studied Fine Arts at Newcastle University before ultimately finishing his tertiary education with a bachelor degree in Visual Communication Design at Queensland College of Art. These two degrees helped forge his super flat painting style with a discernible colour palette and strong sense of balance in his paintings.

Aaron has made artwork for clients including Disney, Mattel, Marvel, Sony BMG, Sesame Street, and Mr Men. His work has been shown in solo exhibitions in Melbourne, Hong Kong and Taiwan, as well as shown in group shows throughout Australia, Europe and the United States.

Lazer Fist (aka Ian Bartlett) is a multidisciplinary artist based in Melbourne, Australia. Cursed by the nostalgia of his childhood, he spends countless hours filling pages of sketchbooks with mutated humanoids and other strange creatures reminiscent of characters from the cartoons and movies he used to watch in the '80s. 
 
Some of these sketches make it to canvas, but only after being scanned for further experimentation. He studied textile design in the UK and is an experienced apparel designer. Years of working in graphic design have pushed his paintings to become bolder and much simpler than previous work.
