Zlata Lopresti

Zlata Lopresti is a visual artist based in Port Moody, working primarily with acrylics and paint pens. Her work blends the organic flow of nature with the dreamlike elements of fantasy, creating vibrant, otherworldly scenes that invite the viewer into a space of wonder and reflection. Self-taught with additional studies at Emily Carr University of Art + Design, Zlata explores the delicate balance between the real and the imagined. Her pieces often feature bold lines, layered textures, and a sense of storytelling that bridges the seen and unseen worlds. Through her art, Zlata invites others to reconnect with the magic of the natural world and the power of imagination.

Georgina Avila

Since I ever remember I have been creating art in many ways, shapes, and forms. Certainly from drawing all my home walls as a kid and the last few years, I have dedicated my life and soul to the visual arts. I have been creating photographs and paintings ever since and besides the exhibitions and publications about my work around the world, this has been my way of living, my job, my therapy and to let art define who I am and what I want to say and express. I feel I am an infinite creative soul always looking for more to give to society and make social conscience through my pieces. Since I became a mother my artistic cells, exploded even more and my commitment to make a better world and great pieces with your is stronger than ever. I fully believe that art can change minds, souls, and hearts in the most honest way possible. The world will always need art.
