About the artists:


Hermine A. Sammut:

Born March 1965 in Vienna - city of music and art. I grew up in a very creative family which was the base of my creativity. 
In 1986 I qualified as a teacher. Through self-teaching and attending specified courses I developed my artistic and creative skills and was permitted to teach Art & Crafts at schools. In 1995 I married a Maltese and moved to Malta. There I continued my studies at the Art School Ghajnsielem and at private lessons. From 1996 to 2003 I lectured Art, Craft & Design and German at the ITS Malta. Since 2004 I have participated in & organized exhibitions locally and abroad, showing my contemporary 3 dimensional artworks, sculptures and jewellery, inspired by the colours of the island Gozo. I like to reflect my impressions, feelings and thoughts in acrylic paintings, 3 dimensional artwork, sculptures and designer jewellery.

George Scicluna 
was born on the 16th of July 1966 in Victoria, Gozo. He studied art at the Salvatore Dimech School of Arts in Mosta where he obtained a diploma in Graphic Design.

He continued his studies at the School of Arts , Malta , and, eventually, at the ‘Accademia di Belle Arti’ in Perugia , Italy . In the late 1980s he worked as a scenographer with the ‘Impresa Fasano’, Rome , painting perspectives for several opera theatres in Italy .

George won the first prize in several art competitions. He took part in numerous collective exhibitions and presented four solo exhibitions to date. In 2006, he was invited by Peter Howson, an internationally renowned Scottish artist, to make a joint exhibition in Glasgow , Scotland . George’s work is to be found on display alongside Peter Howson’s in the Third Step Gallery in Glasgow and also in many private collections locally and internationally.

During his long career, George has created some outstanding scenes that are so striking, that once seen they are never forgotten.

Jackie Roberts:

Originally from England , creates art in metal from a workshop in Ghasri. Inspired by the natural world, particularly the sea, and the fusion of different cultures and traditions Jackie has become especially known for realistic Mediterranean fish hand-crafted from metal. She often incorporates recycled metal and found material into her work; experimenting recently with three dimensional, abstract and representational forms.  She uses mild steel, copper and brass coloured using a technique of ‘painting’ with heat.  Jackie teaches artistic metalwork to adults; undertakes commissions and shows her work in galleries, restaurants, bars. She has taken part in collective exhibitions in Scotland and throughout Malta and Gozo; exhibiting at Gallery G, Artitude, and the Eden Foundation collective exhibitions.
