Mariano Vivanco

Mariano Vivanco is a celebrated fashion and portrait photographer known for his striking, sensual imagery and timeless aesthetic. Born in Peru and raised in New Zealand, he has built a global career capturing icons of fashion, music, and film.

His lens has immortalised figures such as Naomi Campbell, Rihanna, and David Gandy with a signature intimacy and elegance. Vivanco's work frequently appears in Vogue, GQ, and Dazed, blending classic composition with bold, modern sensuality. He has published several acclaimed photography books, including Portraits Nudes Flowers and David Gandy by Dolce & Gabbana. Known for his warm personality and collaborative spirit, he draws out both glamour and vulnerability from his subjects. His visual storytelling is an ode to beauty, strength, and the joy of being seen.

Sitting proudly in the centre of Flute, "El Chullachaqui", represents a half man, half devil that entices the worse side in people.

Chica Seal

Chica Seal is a London-based painter and mixed-media artist known for her whimsical, surrealist works that explore femininity, mythology, and psychological landscapes. Born in Portugal, she studied Fine Art Painting at Falmouth, developing a unique visual language that blends symbolism with humor and intimacy.

Her work often features anthropomorphic vessels, floating limbs, and dreamlike domestic settings, each piece a quiet narrative filled with emotional nuance and sly wit. Chica Seal's paintings, drawings, and ceramics have been exhibited across the UK and Europe, and she is represented by Alice Black Gallery and Partnership Editions. Her practice moves fluidly between figuration and abstraction, using bold colour and delicate linework to explore themes of identity, vulnerability, and the female psyche. Charming yet unsettling, her art invites viewers into a world where the subconscious is tenderly laid bare.

Isaac Benigson

Isaac Benigson is a London-based portrait painter celebrated for his bold, unvarnished depictions of real and imagined figures. Benigson's work is deeply rooted in a love of 20th-century outsider art and classic portraiture, drawing inspiration from the likes of Cecil Beaton, street photographer Vivian Maier, and self-taught artist Lee Godie.

He burst onto the scene early when his portrait titled Mildred, drawn on a pizza box, was accepted into the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 2019 while he was still in high school, marking him as one of the youngest artists ever to earn that distinction. Since then, he has held solo exhibitions in London and Cape Town, earning acclaim for his expressive, vibrant canvases that capture intimate, sometimes subversive, human moments.

Sitting inside Flute, is Beningson's portait titled 'Miranda de Lamb' - a sub-human incarnation of the aristocratic Mitford sister's pet lamb.

Callum Green

Callum Green is a London-based painter and mixed-media artist celebrated for his vibrant, abstract works that playfully interrogate the nature of painting and gesture. Green studied Fine Art & History of Art at Goldsmiths, and has since exhibited widely in London galleries, including Sim Smith's "Prospect & Refuge", The Florence Trust, and Art Rotterdam.

His work explores the tension between material and language, making painting itself an object. He layers delicate oil gestures, smears, and glazes across polished surfaces, combining a refined attention to surface with a tongue-in-cheek sense of humour. Drawing on mid‑century abstraction while resisting its emotional sincerity, Green balances lyricism with irony, inviting viewers into a dialogue through pared‑down marks, subtle colour shifts, and fragmentary text.

Two of Callum Green's pieces grace Broadwick Soho's art collection, capturing his hallmark interplay of immediacy and material nuance.
