Eunice Adorno Martínez
Eunice Adorno Martinez’s photographic documentary work focuses on the dynamics of migration, music, identity, youth, and traditions. She seeks conceptual and discursive routes for a visual poetry on migration and explores concepts such as trajectory and reunion.

Jau-Lan Guo
Jau-lan Guo is a curator and professor. Her work is based on her study of new media art and globalization in relation to contemporary art. Her recent curatorial projects are situated within cultural activism, taking the view that curating can also interfere in political reality.
Guo is currently an Adjunct Professor in the Graduate Program in Fine Arts Department of National University of Arts. Her dissertation “Robert Rauschenberg’s art in 1960s: Toward Postmodern” explored the intersections of Rauschenberg’s art and postmodern theories and criticism of the 1980s through queer studies, postmodern, and cross-disciplinary methods. While trained as an art historian in American art since 1960, her studies have been extended to contemporary art. Her curatorial projects include Polyphonic Mosaic: CO6 Avant-Grande Documenta , Exercise of 0 and 1, Anti-type: Floating over the Stereotype, Nostalgia for Future, and Somnambulism: Phantasmagoric Fugue.
