By the turn of the century, when photography in the form of sixth art transformed our view of the world and became an element of infinite replication, it is difficult to accept today our predicament. The parallel path followed hand in hand with Photographer & Digital Expert Roger Silberstein in the exponential growth of the cyberworld; the conjunction of both forms gave birth to the collaboration ATELIER & NEOSTEALTH. A virtual space originated under virtue, the potency of a possible future. Through this fine-tuning, Atelier Alexander Sutulov can freely walk the avenues of intermingled data.
A few miles from the Four Corners, west from Cortez, CO running through a luscious valley, catches the eye of a unique place known in the region as Canyon of the Ancients Guest Ranch. The familiarity of the landscape and the vicinity of extraordinary 5.000 archeological sites are not a mere coincidence. The exceptional couple, Garry & Ming Adams, who have devoted their heart and love to the land they have explored for more than three decades, illuminates today as one of the most crucial hieroglyph land surveys across the nation. Our common grounds and dedication have bonded to a "family team" to continue our lifelong mission to explore and map down the wonders these ancient cultures left us to decipher and dig out our destiny for humankind.

ELOHI Camps Collection is a combination of true passion and deep inspiration. It started 35 years ago, when Alberto Gana (known as Tito by family and friends) began his studies to become an Architect. His vision, to understand how different shapes, textures, and colors from nature can be incorporated holistically into our daily lives and create a deeper connection between us and the natural world.
His quest to explore the connectivity between architecture and earth’s most intriguing shapes and elements took him to every corner of the planet. Using nature as inspiration he began to incorporate the perspective of nature in his architectural design process.
Working with Michell has been a widening experience of learning the actual narrative of PreColombian culture through textile art. Their dedication to a long millenary tradition where FOUR CORNER:: MUNDO ANDINO come together through its wonderous Camelids: Huanaco, Llama, Alpaca, and Vicuña, have captured the soul of vibrant textile art that encompasses the prose of a rich sun culture.
One of the most significant pre-Colombian textile collections globally stands at the heart of Michell so much in Lima and its recently inaugurated museum at its corporate office in Arequipa, Perú. The message conveyed through this unique collection is the connecting thread to a complex maze through the various sun cultures in the Andean world. Atelier Alexander Sutulov's interest in its rich pre-Colombian iconography is the basis of long-term visual memory research.
Our experience and insight of Montero Toskana Partners Design with CasaMolle at the center of ancestral Molle Culture in the unique Elqui Valley in Northern Chile has been more than extraordinary. Our extensive fieldwork and discovering unknown hieroglyphs comprise a jewel for visiting guests in a bespoken boutique resort. The concept of eco-tourism and ethnic-tourism picks up in a magical surrounding where the skies are of the clearest in the world. The experience with their host Karim & Marisol can offer their warmth and charm mingles with the taste and sensibility of local artisans that orchestrate a sensitivity of its enchanting surroundings. Atelier Alexander Sutulov's involvement with local ancestral iconography and several editions which establish a sense of belonging; is part of a long journey to rebuilding a foreseeable future.
Alberto Nadgar
GEOMATICS ANALYST
Alberto Nadgar, land survey analyst, researcher, visual artist, and photographer, defends the existence in Northern Chile of an ancient civilization of giants as a hypothesis to explain what may be the biggest geoglyphs in the world. Alberto claims some of these geoglyphs are of ancient origin due to their atypical designs and predominantly geometric forms compared to the classical anthropomorphic geoglyphs of the Inca culture, which bridges to the Tiwanaku culture.

Hugo Marín (1929-2018)
Visual Artist
Yesterday, Hugo left me in this world with a colossal responsibility! After a works day, he would always ask why I was putting away his drawings in my flat files? My reply to him was because after he would leave this world for a better life, I was to take his pictures and make huge mural pieces in his memory! He just nodded and uttered: "you are incorrigeble, Sasha!"
Every time we discussed the effects of our times on our earthly environment, who would think I was to accomplish my promises to him in a post-covid scenario, making my dear friend an accomplice in the form of a soul partner. Together we will guide the stars to what he is communicating in a recondite way.
Patrick Carr and his wife Barbara, head of fine art printing studio Carr Imaging, have come along with a vast printing experience and collaboration with a diverse group of visual artists. When it comes to color and pigmented ink printing, they are the super team in achieving the most challenging aspect of printmaking at large, which is reaching a B.A.T., which comes from the french jargon Bon-à-Tirer which translates into a first good pull or good to print. Bon-à-tirer is often applied in the context of an assigned trial proof. Here the artist tells the professional printer that everything is to their satisfaction. In the case of several trial prints, it is the final nod enabling the printer to replicate the same result in multiple printed copies (also called successive impressions).
For this purpose, Patrick applies state-of-the-art technology for color rendition and, most importantly, intrinsic file discrimination. His experience with Better Light™ scan-back camera and North Light's™ H.I.D. copy lights meet Museum Standards for Conservation.
