Artists On Board Soul Voyager 2016

Jose Romussi
Artist, Berlin

 

Jose is a Chilean experimental artist currently based in Berlin yet always traveling the world to find new techniques for the development of his art. From simple imagery Jose weaves his way towards beautiful intricate masterpieces. Giving a new form to collage, he colourfully blends thread & paper to create a whole other story. Bringing vibrant life to monochrome imagery, Jose’s embroidery is a form of story telling in its own unique way.

Dante Fewster Holdsworth
Photographer, London

 

"A photograph to me is like a film that has been paused, yet somehow managed to keep on moving within the same space. A still image holds so much information that it is almost impossible not to imagine what has happened before, and what will happen after. This way of seeing photography is the main influence on the method in which I work; no matter how static the subject, I always intend to invoke a sense of narrative; these narratives, however, are not imposed upon the viewer, but are intended to lead them towards their own ending."

LEOPARDESSA
Designer, Berlin

 

By Jessica Harris & Mariaelena Masetti Zannini, LEOPARDESSA is more than a fashion house, it's an evocation of retro glamour & rock 'n roll attitude inspired by Italian cinema, historic European fashion houses & hidden treasures found in secret addresses of Paris, Rome and other enchanted destinations. The LEOPARDESSA woman is elegance, folly, spark & glitter, muse & eccentric royalty, while at the same time, an aesthetic. She is theater, poetry & romantic irony.

Sara Longo
Singer, Paris

 

From gipsy jazz to straight up swing, this chanteuse Italo-Francaise does it all with style and the sweetest, smoothest vocals imaginable. Though she was trained in conservatory, she's still been known to climb up on a rooftop to belt out jazz standards or entertain a gathering crowd in a market. Her voice is only rivaled by her lively spirit!

Claudia Intino
Visual artist, Rome

 

Born and raised in Rome, Claudia believes that she is living in Paris. Alert and sensitive to creation and everything that surrounds her, she enjoys passing her time painting in the park with her daughter and sharing pleasant dreams of soap bubbles and hula hoops. Enthusiastic about teamwork and thrilled by paradoxes, Claudia is a lovechild full of idiosyncracies: She collects square-shaped Post-its, lives for onion soup, listens to Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong on repeat, studies criminal processes, fears dogs, hates the expression "sign in", loves the word "osmosis", and never speaks about Dylan and Bjork in public.

Designer, Turin

 

Mavì Taten is a 100% italian brand. The whole production is overseen by Pugliese designer Vittoria Formuso,  from the choice of natural Italian fabrics to the creation of the garment. Behind every collection there’s a story related to a sensation, a moment, an emotion. Her brand centers around the choice of fabric, the juxtaposition of plots, the different 

weights, the volume and the cuts. Vittoria aims to translate existing beauty into wearable art, celebrating the perfect structure of a flower to the facade of a church. If what she sees gives stirs an emotion, she  immediately tries to transform her sensation into clothing.

Simona Maria Cannone
Photographer, Syracuse

 

Femininity, discovery, solitude, and above all, storytelling are at the heart of Pugliese photographer Simona Maria Cannone's company Zonzo Web. She loves listening to, reading and when possible, telling stories for others, and believes that the best way to do this is by traveling the world and seeking these tales out. I met Simona in my first apartment in Rome and have since become a friend and a fan, not just of her artwork, but of her voyager spirit!

Cars on Rooftops
Band, Paris

 

Progressive-rock, electric guitar, bass and synthesizers came to a screetching hault when Cars on Rooftops accidentally changed direction and became an acoustic band. What was meant to be purely experimental for a one-off concert, saw the band veering to the enthusiastic response of the crowd and reversing direction towards their destiny to become an acoustic folk band. Their new EP "Graviitate"is indisputable proof that they have arrived at their musical destination.
