Hidetaka Suzuki, Fu Liang and Kate McCrickard have recently joined Rise Art, however Day Bowman has been on the platform for longer, and had two works included in the Satelittes exhibition.

Featured Artists

Hidetaka Suzuki first joined the platform following his work in the Emergence exhibition. Hidetaka’s paintings explore the tension between fiction and reality, often forming realistic impressions of intriguing images. Day Bowman creates large scale abstract paintings that respond to coastal landscapes. Her gestural mark-making and natural palette captures the energy and movement of the seascapes she is drawn to. Kate McCrickard is a contemporary painter and printmaker based in Paris. The city, particularly the Belleville neighborhood informs much of her work as she depicts group gathering and interactions between her characters. Fu Liang works in watercolour, oils and mixed media. For the first Art Drop, he has created a series of portraits, characteristically shrouding his figures in an eerie mist.
