Rita Süveges

Rita Süveges elaborates an ecocritical approach to expand a deeper understanding of the contemporary representation of nature and thus landscape in the framework of the Capitalocene. In her practice, she focuses on community building and knowledge sharing. As a member of the artist group xtro realm, the artist organizes a multitude of programs (reading circles, exhibitions, field trips) dealing with ecological theories that critique the anthropocentricism of contemporary thinking. She lives and works in Budapest.

Rita Süveges has exhibited work at Ludwig Museum, Koblenz, Germany; Collegium Hungaricum Berlin; and OFF-Biennale Budapest, among others.

Elise Kirk

Elise Kirk is a photofilmic artist exploring the human psyche, constructs of place, and shifting ecology. She develops long-form photo-based projects, weaving illusions of documentary veracity, narrative allegory, and cinematic continuity into lyric sequences that question perception and certainty.

Elise Kirk has exhibited work at ClampArt, New York; The Center for Photography at Woodstock, New York; and Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts, Nebraska City, among others.

Frank WANG Yefeng

Frank WANG Yefeng works across various media, including 3D animation, video installation, sculpture, and writing. His migratory experience at a young age drives him to explore his reality as a multicultural individual. The estrangement of the origin and the absence of home turn “in-betweenness” into his constant dwelling. Ambivalent characters play essential roles in Yefeng’s works, where he explores the transmission of affect and the in-between states of nomadic subjects in both virtual and physical realms.

Frank WANG Yefeng has exhibited work at BRIC Biennial, Brooklyn; Hyundai Motorstudio Beijing, China; and Vanguard Gallery, Shanghai, among others.
