Sara Cwynar

Kameelah Janan Rasheed
Kameelah Janan Rasheed is a learner grappling with the poetics, politics, and pleasures of the unfinished: ecologies of Black living, Black textual production, Black utterances, and Black spiritualities. She creates ecosystems of iterative and provisional projects. These projects include sprawling, “architecturally-scaled” xerox-based collages; large-scale public installations; publications; prints; digital archives; lecture-performances; library interventions; poems/poetic gestures; and other forms yet to be determined.
Kameelah Janan Rasheed has exhibited work at Brooklyn Museum; New Museum of Art, New York; and Institute of Contemporary Art – University of Pennsylvania, among others.

Antoinette Zwirchmayr
Antoinette Zwirchmayr’s work consists of concise juxtapositions that reveal sensitive relationships between human beings, objects and nature. Her lyrical visual compositions show vulnerable surfaces separating the inner from the outer, where she examines stereotypical ideas of physique and identity. The reduced formal aesthetic that she employs is marked by a critical ambivalence and directs the viewer’s attention to details that are correlated in the transient and physical quality of analog film.
Antoinette Zwirchmayr has exhibited work at Berlinale, Germany; Toronto International Film Festival, Canada; and Austrian Film Museum, among others.
