Naomi Gatt and Claudia Muscat have
combined their artistic talents to present a colourful and varied array of
exhibits under the common title SUI GENERIS. This unique painters’ exhibition
is being hosted at Le Méridien St Julians Hotel & Spa in Balluta Bay.
Indeed, the hotel has consistently established itself as a mecca for Maltese
and foreign artists alike over the past 7 years.
Naomi Gatt is a graphic
designer and owns a first degree in Communication and Psychology. The mastering
of these two essential elements of human interactions enables her to express
her inner feelings in poignant and surprisingly accurate female facial
expressions. She has playful traits which bring out unexpected renderings
in her depiction of common objects. Naomi has dabbled with various topics
and different media, however what lures her most is the capturing of faces.
The viewer is transported to the soul of the painting through the eyes of these
inspiring portraits. It is a very powerful way for Naomi Gatt to bring her deepest
emotions to the forefront of her exhibits. She chooses simple, nearly depurated
images and transforms them into intense art depictions.

The second artist displaying her distinctive art in SUI GENERIS
exhibition is Claudia Muscat. Claudia has had a passion for drawing since childhood. Over the years and under
different experienced tutors, she has elaborated her skills, methods and approach
to her subject of predilection, which also embraces the infinite declinations
of faces. It is no wonder, with common points in their inspiration, that
the two artists joined their creativity for a very expressive display. Claudia
Muscat particularly likes to capture a moment in time, that ephemeral instant
when time stands still. This interest enables her to enter into a different fragmented
world, experimenting with the gradual development of figures and
portraiture. Claudia
prefers a realistic approach and in fact considers herself
a realist. She is also keen on graphic design which undoubtedly enhances
her presentations.

Both Claudia
and Naomi have
the verve of their young age, embracing the world of art with a fresh
vision and a different perspective. The curious visitor can easily identify the
purity of youth in this rainbow of exhibits, on display throughout the month of
June in the main lounge (level 3) of Le Méridien St Julians Hotel & Spa.
The exhibition is curated by Mr. Joe D
Hamilton, curator for Le Méridien St Julians Hotel & Spa.
