Viktoria Schmid
Viktoria Schmid works at the crossroad of cinema and installation art. Her chosen mediums of film, video, sculpture, and photography act as co-authors and enter into a dialogue with the content. Medium-specific qualities shape her works, where she reflects on the spatial and social conditions of cinema, exhibition, and public spaces. Schmid is interested in perception and influencing viewers’ everyday ways of seeing. Her practice focuses on historical image-making-processes, the potential for representing landscape, and the historical development of cinema.
Viktoria Schmid has exhibited work at the International Film Festival Rotterdam; Künstlerhaus Graz, Austria; and MONO NO AWARE, New York City, among others.

Imogen Taylor
Imogen Taylor paints geometrical abstracts that explore the forms and LGBTQIA+ legacies of European Modernism. Taylor’s paintings, while inspired by Cubism’s abstract forms and colored juxtapositions, are devoid of the source material’s masculine self-seriousness.In their work, Taylor contrasts imposing parallel lines with soft curves and uses thickly applied color.
Imogen Taylor has exhibited work at Whangārei Art Museum, Hocken Collections, Dunedin; Michael Lett, Auckland; and The Dowse Art Museum, Wellington, among others.
