Most of my work starts with the capturing of sound and images (moving and still), resulting from my immersion in a certain reality or context. It is multi-situated as a whole, or better yet: it sits at the border, detached but intimate. If I place myself inside an institution, I work from within in order […]
Sabina Timmermans
Human beings entertain an ambivalent relationship with nature. On the one hand, nature is an idealized and mythical appearance in the desire of man, which arouses his wanderlust. On the other hand, he wants to control and frame it to make his life more bearable. Sabina Timmermans reflects on this relationship in her paintings. She […]
Sveinn Fannar Jóhannsson
The artist type divined from Sveinn Fannar Jóhannsson’s work – always laboriously preened for capture – is an impassive one. A book featuring portraits of Jóhannsson taken by waiters acts as a self-conscious contemplation of this parasitical figure. It can be a strain to be waited on, if you are attuned to how the procuring […]
Lewis & Taggart
Central to the practice of the Canadian, Norway-based artist duo Lewis & Taggart is the object. Object in the material sense of the term; object as the subject of limitless interpretation and meaning, the capacity of which frequently evades the knowing grasp. The object can be perceived under two definitions. The first is the object […]
Riccardo Benassi
Riccardo Benassi, who frequently collaborates with architects, artists, curators, musicians and theoreticians, reflects on the impact of technology on our daily relation to time and space, analysing how technological devices have radically altered the structures for living and organizing the real, from architecture and politics to cultural production and consumption. Benassi’s works are the result […]
Thomas Cummins
Society has always been seen through its buildings and constructions. Inevitably, we are situated within these spaces, which compose all of our lives but also divide and confine us to our own interiors. By framing the self within architecture, I ultimately explore how individuals begin to define themselves through surrounding social structures. In the end, […]
Kristina Müntzing
The works of Kristina Müntzing uses arts and crafts techniques to create a visual language of radical political movements. Images from various eras and geographies are spliced and woven together, forming both image and pattern, map and archive. Müntzing’s current work investigates the history of textile industries and the emergence of early socialist movements. Drawing […]
POLYS PESLIKAS
“Deconstruction” as a notion does not satisfy me when I describe my relationship with the painted image. I would prefer abandonment with the lingering prospect of a possible return. With an intention of constructing a different painterly quality, where the relationship with time in the here and now – and not with the immobilized time […]
Martin Hruby
For a long time Martin Hrubý related his artistic work mainly to architecture as a complex field that offers a wider theoretical potential for recording cultural and socio-political processes. From a direct thematisation of architecture in the form of objects or spatial installations in galleries, his practice has shifted towards merging artistic and documentary strategies. […]
Juuso Noronkoski
My artistic practice focuses on the frontier between the photographic image and the actual world. The speed in which images appear and disappear in contemporary society prompts demands for deceleration and presence. Combining the physical presence of objects with photographs, which traditionally document past events, makes the image itself appear more present at the moment […]
