Josée Pedneault
Referencing philosophy, scientific theories as well as traditional cosmogonies, my artistic practice questions belief systems that define – from elementary particles to the limits of the universe – our conception of the natural world. Of particular significance is the way in which abstract concepts take tangible forms, such as maps and time-measuring devices; forms that reflect our psychological, […]
Andrei Renteria
Renteria’s work reflects his strong and longstanding interest in socio-political issues along the U.S./ Mexico border, where he grew up. His experimental approach to material provides a powerful forum to which explore crimes against humanity. He investigates how art can address and embody broader political issues, including torture and violence beyond international borders. In Fringes, Renteria […]
Johan Österholm
For the past few years my artistic practice has focused on light emitted or reflected off celestial objects, light that is increasingly becoming fainter due to the haze of light pollution. Through photography, sculpture and video I materialise the aged and endangered light of our nights – for instance light that started it’s travel towards […]
Renzo Martens
The Institute for Human Activities (IHA) is a research project, initiated by a Dutch artist Renzo Martens and developed at the KASK – School of Arts in Ghent. IHA’s goal is to prove that artistic critique on economic inequality can redress it – not symbolically, but in material terms. Since 2014 the IHA has collaborated with the Cercle […]
David Escalona
After defending my doctoral thesis “Accident and the Wounded Body in Art”, I understood that I needed to carry out new art projects related to said thesis. I conceive art production as a constituent part of my art research. It is important to highlight that the reasons behind my projects lie in the experiences lived […]
Andrea Brandão
My work does not have technical or formal borders. The research is what determines its materialisation. The work explores the notion of “process” seeking to test the limits of definition and realisation of the work. Searching the best possible format for my ideas and meanings of everyday life. All my works are composed of several […]
Manuel Stehli
Manuel Stehli’s paintings center around landscape and human interaction. The references used are often seemingly trivial moments which, at the same time, have the potential of turning into something archetypal through the process of painting. In other works the reverse takes place: A dramatic, loaded image may become compromised as it gets worked over, eventually […]
Zahra Rashid
Real Time, Paper Time Once is never enough. That’s Zahra Rashid’s take on representation. Printing – with its series – would appear to be the logical choice for her medium. Yet Rashid prefers drawing, video and installation, which tend to be unique. Even if a video can be copied, most projections are singular apparitions – […]
Kanako Ishii
Kanako Ishii’s interest lays in the analysis of metaphysical borders such as past – present, remembered – forgotten or presence – absence. She calls these metaphysical borders “grey sensations”. Metaphorically, she senses these borders as grey nuances. Even though achromatic colours like grey are usually seen as a composition of black and white, Ishii regards […]
Theodoros Stamatogiannis
Theodoros’ work explores the intersection of sculpture and architecture by introducing physical, social or psychological interventions and sculptures. Using architectural components such as awnings, floors, doors, windows or other architectural objects, processes and materials like modified bituminous sheeting , he perturbs the way that we use or perceive these elements. Theodoros’ most recent practice focuses […]
