SARA BERNUY - Spain
Sara (Madrid, 1983) is a young photographic talent, with a special interest in abandoned spaces. She creates beautiful images of interiors in decline, searching for something she has not yet found. More than documenting the space or building itself, she searches for the sentiments and emotions left behind by the former inhabitants and visitors. Some of that same fragility and sensibility we find in her portraits and editorial work that consist of powerful, sharp images that are always more than just a registration of facts and faces. Sara Bernuy has celebrated expositions in different galleries throughout Spain and her work is published frequently in different magazines. Numbstar has included her in its portfolio of special photographic talents.
Her clients include NGO's like Special Olympics Spain and Fremap.

Amongst his clients we find agencies like DDB, V Agency Paris, GLMR and Golden Communication, amongst others.

PABLO SOLA - Spain
Pablo Sola's work recreates a fictional reality within a contremporary pop esthetic with barroque scenery, extravagant models and scandalous treatment of colour. He demonstrates a critical and sarcastic view on high society, the star system and certain institutions, but always with a great sense of beauty, detailed styling, lots of humour and a touch of glamour.
At the age of 25, Pablo Sola (Madrid, 1984) has already participated in numerous exhibitions throughout Europe: recently at the art festival ARTENDENCIAS in Madrid and FOTO ENCUENTROS in Biset Arte in Cartagena, Spain.

MARTIN STRANKA - Czech Republic
'Martin's work exists in that space between dreams and waking, those split seconds when a person has a foot in both worlds. Light like the first rays of twilight filtering through a curtain when even the dust seems to glitter with some sort of hidden purpose or meaning. The language of stillness: the solitary sound of your own footsteps echoing down the streets of a deserted city. And on every building the flickering image of a silent film like faded memories.'
However, Martin is by no means just another dreamer, he is a very serious and hard worker who plans his photographic career with determination and great effort. Following artists like Jan Saudek, Karel Gott or Martin Schreiber, he is celebratinghis first solo exhibition in Prague's Solidni Nejistota (Solid Uncertainty). Several advertising projects already include his stunning images.
