It's like the horizon, she says, always just within reach, always eluding us. In New York, her surrealist sculptures now rise from the street at monumental scale, asking strangers to stop, look up, and perhaps speak to each other. For Charlotte Colbert, that is not a small act. It is the whole point.

She wanted to be an artist but was afraid she wasn't talented enough — so she studied industrial design instead. Then she graduated, ignored the degree, and drew every spare hour until the work took over. Stefhany Lozano has been making bold, colourful, mysteriously joyful paintings ever since. With a solo show in Porto, a two-person show at the Leipzig art museum, and her first augmented reality project underway, she's just getting started.

Johan Gelper calls his sculptures drawings in space. It is a fitting description. At Ricou Gallery he shows the frame of a chair that transforms into looping fibreglass tubes, clamped to heavy stones. Elsewhere, a large rake is held upright by a cable that runs on as an extension. A constellation of yellow plastic tubes covered in cable ties bears similarities to a sea urchin. A single leaf hangs at the centre of a steel cable oval. Everything is in balance. Everything is asking a question about balance.

Andrew Salgado reads two or three books at a time. He starts with Baudelaire when searching for imagery, follows it with Derek Jarman's account of building a garden while dying of HIV, and finishes with Susan Orlean on obsession and the pursuit of beauty. Then he goes into the studio and starts a painting that may take a year, beginning with a title jotted in a notebook. He is also one of the UK's leading figurative painters, with fifteen sold-out solo exhibitions and a piece at Phillips New York that sold for five times its estimate. He is equally vocal about all of this.
