2. Diana Beltran Herrera
Diana Herrera holds a BA in industrial design from Jorge Tadeo Lozano University in
Bogota, Colombia. She gained her first work experience in Finland under the Faroese-
Danish artist Hanni Bjartalid.
Her most recent series, Mathematics For Reality, is a formidable flock of birds made from
many intricate layers of colourful and foil-enhanced paper.
Herrera regards herself as both an illustrator and an artist, but lately she focused
exclusively on paper sculpture. Each of her works is hand-cut and assembled with a
great care to detail. Her work has been exhibited in Colombia and Denmark.

3. John N. Agnew
John Agnew is an artist obsessed with producing accurate
representations of nature. His career began in the museum world
where he designed exhibits, produced illustrations and painted murals
and dioramas for museums and zoos around the country and as far
away as Moscow. Since the early 80's, John has produced nearly thirty
thousand square feet of murals and dioramas for Hamilton County
Parks, the Cincinnati Museum of Natural History and Science, and the
Cincinnati Zoo.

4. Adrienne Antonson
Adrienne Antonson was born in 1982, in Gainesville, FL. Her mother collected
hair in a small velvet box, which had a lasting impact on the artist. Her
tactile curiosities led her to the College of Charleston, where she majored in
Studio Art. Throughout college Antonson was influenced by apprenticeships
with talented fiber artists. By the time of her graduation, Antonson had
decided to create the design company, Spinster, which she has owned and
operated since 2005. Through Spinster, she creates inspired products from
salvaged materials. Owning a company introduced Antonson to business
matters, and she soon sought projects that fused art with leadership roles.
