EVA BARTELS
She lives in a falling-apart castle in Amsterdam. She made a VR film about Gestalt therapy, she's writing a solo piece about Leonora Carrington, and she has a list of 40 things that make her feel well. Eva Bartels is multiple people in one body — maybe even some animals too.
WRITER ANDREW BERARDINI
He is only ever and truly a writer. Other things slip in — curator, editor, teacher — but they all filter through the magic of words. Andrew Berardini has penned essays for sci-fi pagan witches and queer geniuses, co-curated Estonia's Venice Pavilion, and tracked 110 shades of colour through memory and art history. We asked him about icons. He said we should smash them all. We asked about wellbeing. He said: more love, less fear. Joy.
FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER CHARLOTTE FAVRE
Gobelins-trained photographer Charlotte Favré on Brittany light, memory as creative process, interning with Bettina Rheims, and her series Emotional Movement.
SARA MEINZ
Her creative process began with shooting lots of bad pictures — then letting them rest, going back months later, hoping one of them had quietly become something. Sara Meinz, born in Vigo in 1996, has since been shortlisted for the Palm Photo Prize, selected for Futures Photography, and published twice by Pomegranate Press. Back in her hometown, she is working on something new: narratives, not single frames. The pandemic changed what she thinks photography is for.
