He created his first oil painting at the age of 14. He got into graffiti In high school, which later influenced the formats of his current works in the medium of classical hanging. The same "experience of the street" also radicalises Ožibek's view of what can become the real (now no longer just artistic) and substantive motif, the subject of a painting.

About Michal Ožibko
He created his first oil painting at the age of 14. In high school he got into graffiti, which later influenced the formats of his current works in the medium of classical hanging. The same "experience of the street" also radicalizes Ožibek's view of what can become the real (now no longer just artistic) and substantive motif, the subject of a painting. His painterly expression tends towards a photorealistic and even hyperrealistic visuality, yet he also ventures into a purely non-figurative position. The resulting technically perfect form ceases to be "only" an instrument of artistic representation, but the formal and technical-technological aspect itself is retrospectively self-reflexively commented upon by the whole of the artwork. Ožibek's handwriting is delicate in its realist position, concentrating on the technique of the glaze, which he explores and refines. By delicately layering several translucent layers of oil paint, he gradually achieves the effect of a supple painting surface. The technique of glazing, fundamental to classical painting, then reaches its peak in Ožibko's duet "i-Death" (British Portrait Award, British Portrait Gallery - 2010).Thematically, Ožibko's works deal with depicting traditional compositions of common objects or historically anchored themes and iconography, which he redefines and intervenes in contexts that often have both existential character and cultural, socio-spiritual overlaps.

Jakub Tytykalo - The Conveyor belt
In the work James Tytykal (1984) one can trace the inspiration of classical modernism. Fragmented creatures, still lifes, landscapes and, more recently, urban scenes are reminiscent of Cubism in their compositional structure and reduced colour palette. In contrast to the Cubist emphasis on the act of seeing and the problem of representation, however, Tytykalo turns to the imagination: he models matter in his paintings with an emphasis on its imaginative potential. Tytykalo's combination of acrylic and spray paint inventively merges classical figurative painting with the lightness and exaggeration of street art.
Jan Soumar - Look at this!
The key to Jan Soumar's paintings is Back into the Reality (2021). Here, reality is its own substance for visual and semantic reassessment. The artist paints from memory fragments of figures and landscape passages, which he collages into a single format together with modernist innovations that replace the clarity of illusory space and transform it into an abstract, sensual or, to use contemporary language, experiential environment.
Aleš Brázdil - Violet on the top right
Aleš Brázdil's painting is characterised not only by a sense of illusiveness of expression, but also by the presence of a certain visual irritation. The artist puts his ability to transform what is seen or seen into a state of dynamic, rearranged matter that can be freely shaped, manipulated, and bent into an exploration of the analogical world of reproduced recordings with which the static medium of classical and digital photography and the configurable temporal media of video, film, digital recording, and documentary work.

Zeb One - F3
By gradually developing the script, Zeb One maintained the continuity of his creative work. He never followed art trends much, and his personal opinion and inventiveness was gradually shaped by graffiti, the street art scene, but also by his admiration for the aesthetic quality of floor plans as we know them from urbanism and architecture. The pursuit of the purest possible form without gestural and emotional elements eventually logically anchored him in a geometric and abstract expression based on typography.
