To create a mystery: Change all facts into fiction. Change fiction into facts again. Repeat endlessly. (Katie King)
Takahiro Suzuki
I write the word “IKIRO”, which means, “to be alive”. I have been writing it every day since 1997, as a project shown in many places around the world, both in museums and on the street. Initially I merely wanted to express myself in public space by staging an installation art piece using my body. […]
Hadley + Maxwell
Drawing a solid line between artifice and sincerity is as intangible as being right all the time. Hadley + Maxwell build a tension between politics and aesthetics, reflecting on issues of taste and its historical construction. The urgency in which they explore these ideas is worked out in their collaborative process. Culling from music culture, […]
Michel de Broin
Is it possible to imagine a resistance that would be distinct from the idea of being ‘against’? In Michel de Broin’s work, the metaphor of resistance is approached from a perspective of how it is possible to reveal political and social questions without, however, evoking them in their most manifest sense. Refining his concept of […]
János Fodor
János Fodor works with drawing, photography, and most distinctively, video. His films are characteristically snapshot sequences that capture exceptional moments of everyday life identified in chaotic urban environments. He favours short clips that convey a single idea, revealing the concept of an image, without dwelling unduly on form or encouraging sentimentality. There is both irony […]

Determined to avoid reductive expressions and filmic representations as predictably unjust as that which they endeavour to disturb, I am interested in articulations of restlessness and in examining that characteristic inability of certain myths and legacies to rest peacefully. My filmic work consists in re-staging texts such as Jean Genet’s Les Bonnes and Marguerite Yourcenar’s […]
Evanthia Tsantila
Evanthia Tsantila’s work investigates that which remains after continuous transformations from one medium to the other. Using other practices in her installations like architecture, film, video, theatre, literature, performance and combining them with traditional ones like drawing, is not a way of mixing genres and practices, not a celebration of multifariousness. The aim is to […]
Monika Sosnowska
Monika Sosnowska designs spaces that usually hide some surprises: strange proportions of scale, or other labyrinthine puzzles. Her murals use trompe l’oeil principles: the painted patterns pulse before our eyes, assume a third direction, or pretend to be something impossible. Her architectonic installation begin with a well known idea but take it further, exploring from […]
Egill Saebjörnsson
