"All the messy bits on view." Zach Zecha (@zachzecha )
creates art that challenges the viewer, leaving works rough and unfinished—just like life. Balancing chaos and control, he combines sharp lines with loose gestures, revealing the structure and physical qualities of the material.

This sculpture has been included in the exhibition "Title to be Determined" by Starta Arta in 2021.
Ronald Mario Gonzalez (@ronaldgonzalezstudio ) is a contemporary sculptor and installation artist whose work merges found objects with figuration, creating assemblages that explore memory, mortality, and transformation.
His sculptures, composed of timeworn materials, embody psychological depth, blending personal symbolism with the unsettling presence of discarded elements, giving new life to forgotten remnants.

As part of Alternate Side Parking show, Li-Ming Hu (@outraged994 ) brought humor and sharp critique to the stage with her performance "Where Does Your Success Come From?"
At Starta Arta, the artist delivered a satirical talk on the pressures of being a “professional” artist, projecting a slideshow behind her while tossing custom ping-pong balls with quotes into the audience.
Mixing live and digital elements, Li-Ming Hu questioned the art world's obsession with success and self-promotion. So, what does success really mean for artists today?

This painting by Yuri Tayshete @yuritayshete was sold and found a new home during our Small Works exhibition. We’re always thrilled when art moves to a place where it will be appreciated and loved. Buying art is such a great way to bring beauty into your life and support artists!

Happy holidays from Starta Arta team!
We are deeply grateful to have you as part of our journey in the world of art.
Here’s to a New Year full of exciting discoveries and shared moments of beauty 💫
Zach Zecha @zachzecha continues to impress with his evolving art practice.
For more than 8 years, he has been transitioning from traditional observational painting to assemblage, using materials from home renovation.
Zach likens his creative process to jazz improvisation, where flexibility and quick adaptation are key.
His unique approach was showcased in the "Alternate Side Parking" show at @startaarta in May 2023.

"The stormy weather and powerful climate conditions permeating the contemporary landscape as a result of climate change have inspired my paintings.
The surface of the landscape paintings erupts with textured and expressive gestural marks, which depict the radical weather events.
The nuances of light, atmosphere and weather inspire a continuous feeling of awe, sometimes accompanied by fear and surprise.
The painting process is not just an analytical process for me but a sublime revelation in every visual moment."
