Sara Sjölin
Sara Sjölin’s practice encompasses film, speech, performance, and installation. Her work delves into comedy rooted from tragedy, transforming feelings of anxiety and discomfort into moments of affection and laughter through art. Shaped by the serendipitous events within her conceptual frameworks, her pieces develop in an inherent way, often diverging from her initial intentions and interpretations.
Sara Sjölin has exhibited work at Kunsthaus Zürich, Switzerland; SALTS, Switzerland; and CPH:DOX, Denmark, among others.

Artist
Alice Wang
Alice Wang makes sculptures and experimental films that interrogate medium-specificity as both a conceptual schema and in the exploration of forms. Taking a phenomenological approach where the body is the site of knowledge production within a non-geocentric universe, Wang ventures to geological, technological, and archaeological sites to investigate the uncanny dimensions of the natural world. Using metamorphic substances like fossils, meteorites, plants, and heat, Wang engages sculpture as a critical framework to examine metaphysical questions about the nature of reality.
Alice Wang has exhibited work at UCCA Dune Art Museum, Qinhuangdao; Power Station of Art, Shanghai; and Vincent Price Art Museum, Los Angeles, among others.
