Alex Russell Flint (b 1974) is a British artist who produces beautifully crafted, soulful oil paintings. He divides his time between London and Argenton-Chateau in France, where he lives and works in the rambling former school house (l’ancienne école) he acquired in 2010.

Los Angeles-based artist Tristan Eaton combines portraiture and popular culture to create eye-catching murals. His lively and large-scale spraypainted works often juxtapose part of an illustrated, monochromatic face with a colorful mashup of imagery. We see stylized cartoon characters, logos, typography, and intricate patterns, and sometimes he’ll layer these elements on top of each other. All of these parts form a larger cohesive shape that impressively spans the length and height of buildings. This isn’t the first time we’ve been dazzled by Eaton’s work - we first fell in love with his mural of Audrey Hepburn that graces in New York City’s Little Italy neighborhood

Eaton started pursuing street art when he was just a teenager and painted everything from walls to billboards wherever he lived, which includes places like London, Detroit, and Brooklyn. He grew up on comic books, graffiti, and skateboard culture, and his upbringing is evident in these murals. The imaginative works showcase an interest in many different things and create bold compositions that immediately capture our attention.

Amsterdam-based artist Berndnaut Smilde is best known for his fantastical Nimbus series, in which individual clouds appear to magically float in empty rooms. The haunting images portray the airy nimbuses drifting through gorgeous Rococo rooms, Gothic cathedrals, and abandoned factories, evoking a sense of mysticism or supernatural presence.

Carefully controlling the temperature and humidity in a room, Smilde uses a fog machine to produce the ethereal clouds that remain suspended in the air for only a fleeting moment. Although the nimbuses are visible for just a few seconds, their ephemeral existences are made permanent through photography. These works center on an impermanent state of being between construction and deconstruction, as the dreamy clouds appear and vanish in the blink of an eye.

Smilde’s latest exhibition Antipode will be on display at the Ronchini Gallery in London until June 14. The show will feature the artist’s stunning multidisciplinary works that synthesize photography, installation, performance, and sculpture. The exhibition title Antipode is a geographical term that refers to parts of the earth diametrically opposite each other, echoing Smilde’s focus on duality in his artwork.
