t'ART online: March Edition
Photography

Asafe Ghalib

I’m a Brazilian activist, based in London, who produces visual content for the LGBTQIA+ community. The theme of my work is to capture moments of people with an historical context, to convey that Queer people have always been here, but that we have been historically mis-represented.

This year I was one of the winners and the Story cover for British Journal of Photography “Ones to Watch” from 2021 and recently, the Creative Review editorial team selected me as one of the photographers that have made an impact over the past 12 months as their Zeitgeist winners.  

I began to feel a sense of community when I started to see that it was possible to express my gender, without it being dictated to me. We have been taught to fear the things that could potentially set us free. I don't care about society's expectations, I just want to be me. 


Finding my self-expression gave me a voice. I want to use my it to speak to everyone, and raise awareness and hope for the ones ahead to come, for future generations to live and express themselves authentically. The continuing legacy of the LGBTQIA+ community is that we are not just fighting for ourselves, but for everyone. 


We all have a responsibility to create an environment for our young people to carry on growing; where they can be themselves, and not fear people who are different to them.

Prints

Moatzart

I am Alexandra Motiu and I make art under the pseudonym Moatzart, as a printmaker and illustrator.

 

I have a lot of experience working in the arts and culture sector, with a focus on marketing, sales and event management.

 

My work has pop art and surrealist art humour with an old masters' feel. My background is painting and printmaking. I am influenced by Dadaism and Surrealism, and my work is revelatory of internal struggles through disturbing imagery, as the grotesque and carnivalesque is endlessly fascinating. I aim to make hauntingly beautiful work that will stay with the viewer for a long time. I love stories, myth and folklore, and a lot of my work is very illustrative. Ultimately, people are and will always be my main inspiration.

 

I make limited edition linocut and wood engraving prints, as well as drypoint etchings and monotypes using a printing press. I also have an array of different products such as T shirts with some of my funkiest designs, totebags, notebooks, bookmarks, stickers and more.
