Prior to the pandemic, Lydia’s figurative oil painting took her from London to Florence to Samoa, where she painted on location and from life. Deprived of life models to work from in 2020, Lydia turned to photography to get her figurative references. This opened new opportunities for capturing people in candid, unscripted moments. Taking a vast assortment of spontaneous imagery back to 64a Flat 1, Lydia painted sensitive portrayals of Gozitans from the viewpoint of the unseen observer.
After graduating in History from the University of Edinburgh, Lydia Cecil trained at the London Atelier of Representational Art, and then tutored there prior to the Covid pandemic. She has been an Artist in Residence for the New Generation Festival and for the Tiapapata Art Centre, and now is a contributing tutor to Raw Umber Studios. Her work explores human nature and its representation.
Seb Tanti Burlò is a political cartoonist and artist, published weekly in The Times Malta. Graduated in Architecture + Urban Studies from the University of Westminster (London), his work combines current affairs, art, writing and a splash of ink to create a socio-commentary of today’s times.
