Below are Jiaxin’s Artist Biography, Artist Statement and 5 of her mixed media collages submitted to this competition.
Jiaxin Chen is a visual artist working with photography, mixed media, and material experimentation. Her practice transforms images into tactile forms that embody memory, fragility and rhythm. In her recent series The City’s Breathe: Folded Lights of Hong Kong, she interlaces cyanotype prints with the traditional craft of Yongchun paper weaving, fusing digital pixels with woven grids to reveal the layered pulse of urban life. Chen’s work has been presented in solo and group exhibitions internationally, engaging audiences in dialogues that connect ancient craft with contemporary media. She currently lives and works between the United Kingdom and China.
My practice investigates the tension between photography and material, image and object. I am interested in the fragility of photographs, how they can be folded, interwoven or fractured, yet still preserve light and memory within their surfaces. By combining cyanotype printing with Yongchun paper weaving, I reconfigure photographic fragments into grid-like structures where order collides with disruption and clarity dissolves into blur. This process reflects the unstable rhythms of the city, structured yet fragile, immediate yet historical. I aim to reimagine urban space not as fixed representation but as a living organism, breathing with memory, contradiction and transformation. Through repetition, distortion and rhythm, my work challenges photography’s boundaries and invites viewers to encounter the image as something material, unstable and alive.

Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery is thrilled to announce that Robert Obier has been selected as one of the four winning artists of the gallery’s recent 29th “Solo Art Series” Art Competition. Robert’s month-long solo art exhibition will be featured on the gallery’s website, YouTube Channel, and in the “Solo Art Series” Archive.
Robert is an internationally acclaimed, award-winning artist based in Louisiana, USA. The gallery will now promote his with an extensive online public relations campaign.

Robert's work will also be showcased on the gallery's YouTube channel, and promoted via an event postcard, award ribbon, and certificate.
The “Solo Art Series” highlights the work of established artists, who have a body of work to showcase, through a series of online monthly solo exhibitions. Artist participants were asked to submit the following 3 components for the “Solo Art Series” competition: 1. Their art. 2. Their artist biography. 3. Their artist statement. A careful evaluation of the submissions led to the selection of four artists for month-long solo shows, ensuring a diverse range of artistic styles and approaches would be featured.
Presented below are Robert's artist biography and statement, together with 16 of his mixed media artwork. We encourage you to peruse Robert's information and admire his art.
Robert Obier is an award winning artist. His work as an architect/designer/illustrator has been featured in numerous exhibitions, magazines and web articles. His high tech sculptural designs have appeared on network television and were selected for a “location shoot” in a major motion picture.
His range of eclectic influences include the organic architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright, the explorations of geometry in nature by Andy Goldsworthy and the theatrical creations of Industrial Light and Magic for a time long ago in a galaxy far, far away.
As an architect, he has over 40 years’ experience in residential projects and commercial developments located in Dallas, Boston, Baton Rouge and on the Gulf Coast with extensive experience in design, construction and fabrication of architectural, furniture and lighting products. Specialized skills include: woodworking, metal work, computer rendering/modeling, 3-D printing, CNC machine fabrication, illustration, graphic design, photography, and website development. He is now focusing his years of expertise and experience on the development and sale of 3-dimensional art projects.
Robert Obier was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana where he now resides. He received a Bachelor of Architecture Degree from LSU in 1981 and a Master of Science Degree in Industrial Design from Art Center College of Design in 2007.
My exploration of form is rooted in my passion for design, invention and technology. From the artful drawings of Leonardo Di Vinci to the computer generated creations of Industrial Light and Magic, I am inspired by the human imagination and I strive to understand the hidden principals that shape our understanding of the world and are the genesis of our best creations.
My work explores the fusion of the disciplines of architecture, industrial design and fine art. Each piece is as much a realization of an abstract design concept as it is a unique work of three-dimensional art.
A strict and systematic organization of components define this work and manifest a distinct unifying methodology that has both physical and spiritual origins. At first glance, the geometric forms seem strangely familiar as if seen somewhere before - but where - when? Upon closer examination - perhaps the designs are remnants of some distant and secrete civilization or even an, as of yet, unknown and mysterious future. The forms are intentionally abstract giving shape to that initial "spark" of design inspiration. Schematic concepts emerge as built objects without the practical or functional restrictions that necessarily accompany the development of an architectural or industrial product.

Artist participants were asked to submit the following 3 components for the “Solo Art Series” competition: 1. Their art. 2. Their artist biography. 3. Their artist statement. These elements were evaluated and judged, which resulted in the selection of the artists who are featured in individual month-long solo art exhibitions. This was the 24th “Solo Art Series” Art Competition that the gallery has conducted.
Below are Deimante’s Artist Biography, her Artist Statement, along with 14 artworks. We hope that you will take the time to read Deimante’s information and to take a look at her beautiful artworks.
Deimante Bruzguliene was born in Lithuania on May 20, 1980 and came to the United Kingdom in 2004. Her love of all animals started at a very young age. She was always keen to rescue animals. Deimante is an Artist who is completely self-taught. She is breath taking realistic wildlife paintings of animals. Deimante works in a variety of media including acrylic, oil, pastel, watercolour, graphite and mixed media.
“When it is my time to leave this world, I wish to do so knowing that I have left paintings that inspire others to appreciate the beauty of the natural world.”
I have been a lifelong artist. I've been drawing since I can remember. Art class has always been my favourite class. My style is realist, as I am obsessed with detail. I have always had a deep love of animals and nature. I find inspiration in all kinds of creatures, both domestic and wildlife, big, small, or in between.
My favourite subjects are wildlife. I love drawing animals as it is a way of accessing the secrets of the natural world. I can see their souls through their eyes, which I try to capture in my paintings. Animals are as individual as humans, but for me they manifest a purer and more genuine spirit to the outside world than do human beings. I can love animals by painting them, leaving a legacy of their existence and hopefully bringing to the viewer the same joy that I experience painting them.
I would like more people to be able to experience the connection that I have with animals. I wish to take this further to really convey that animals have their own personality and soul. Every portrait I do enriches my life, for the subject enters my heart. We are all connected. Connections are magical, providing an opportunity to nurture patience, compassion, love and caring.
Deimante’s work can be viewed on her website.

Below are Giovanni’s Artist Biography, Artist Statement and 5 artworks that were submitted to this competition.
Artist Biography
Born in Catania (Sicily) where he lived for many years and where he completed his artistic studies at The Naked School in Catania at the BB. AA academy and at the beginning of the 90s he began his pictorial activity. In those years he worked as a collaborator in galleries, cultural associations that allowed him to enter the most stimulating environments to be able to deepen his desire for further knowledge of the history of art, encouraging him and enriching him with that culture that encouraged him to undertake the artistic activity.
Along the way, the artist, who initially devoted himself to the figurative, has often felt the need to confront various masters of contemporary art in order to arrive at the synthesis of a more immediate reality where gesture, shape, color and the line let the emotional contents determine passions, tensions and discomforts thanks also to the partnership with the informal abstract artists of his hometown.
The works of Giuseppe De Gregorio, Manlio Bacosi, Emilio Vedova have revolutionized the way we see him, what he says to himself and how much he feels.
He currently lives and works between Catania and Rome.
Artist Statement
In my works I try to make you feel a human vibration that enhances feelings through shape, line, color and intentionality; the encounter with the unexpected, for the opening of new worlds and new possibilities of vision where the work itself is understood as a result of the encounter between man and nature in an alternation of empathy between pure form and its complexity. Strongly attracted by the material relationships that the eye is able to grasp in the surfaces of objects, along the walls of the city or even more in the memory of the already state.
I am intent on developing a discourse on structurality, and particularly on the technique in which color is assumed in its linguistic value. This also applies to signs, which are admitted to constitute an alphabet without a code that guarantees a form that reflects an idea or trace and document an emotion. And so in the color they are inserted into the layout, into the diagram of tensions, of the rapidity, of the cadence which the gesture encounters as it explores the interior space and the surface to be painted. In search of a point of access or contact.

Below is David’s Artist Biography, his Artist Statement, along with 25 of his abstract artworks. We hope that you will take the time to read David’s information and to take a look at his artwork.
Artist Biography
David Wigner became interested in art when he was in high school, and worked primarily with watercolors. His mother influenced him while growing up, as she enjoyed creating watercolor art, and saw that he had natural ability towards drawing. So she gave David some of her materials and shared her techniques with him.
Through college at Grand Valley State, David took several art courses, but finished with a degree in philosophy. This made sense because he is a philosopher. He also worked in a mixed media format of combining elements into his works to develop his own style as a means of finding out what it was in him that he was trying to bring about in his art. After college, David joined The Grand Valley Artists Association. This helped him tremendously, meeting new artists and working with some of them.
David’s latest passion as an artist has been creating abstract pour paintings. This format always challenges his strong sense of color and finding balance in his work. Pour painting keeps him sane. Like life, this whole process is inspiring David all the time. His son helped him build his website to help him share his work.
Artist Statement
There's something about pour painting that energizes me and satisfies my mind & soul. If I'm feeling upset with life, I can express that emotion in my work. When I'm feeling content, my work takes on that emotion too, having a calmer look and feel.
