Anton Cabaleiro

Anton Cabaleiro explores the relationship between new technologies and society through digital means. His work includes the different phases of the creative process, from graphic design stages to the final audiovisual result. In his single-channel videos and video installations he mixes several techniques, such as motion graphics, animation and augmented reality, to combine real and virtual elements within the same environment. He employs concepts from landscape design, anthropology, philosophy and mass media theories to create a synthetic, clean, compact and direct work; paying special attention to how the various real and virtual layers interact with each other.

Anton Cabaleiro (born 1977 in Spain) received a MFA in Computer Arts from the School of Visual Arts, New York; a MS in Landscape Design from Columbia University, and a PhD in Art, Design and Technology at the Complutense University, Madrid. Past exhibitions include the Bronx Museum Biennial, New York; Armory Show, New York; New York University, New York; Museum of Art and Design, New York; Times Square Public Space Projects, New York; Under the Bridge Festival, New York; Museum of Contemporary Art of Vigo, Spain; the Andalusian Center of Contemporary Art, Spain; ARCO International Fair of Contemporary Art, Madrid; The Cervantes Institute, Beijing; Marisa Marimon Gallery; Marlborough Gallery; and the Loop International Fair of Video, Barcelona.

Kelly Lycan

Kelly Lycan’s practice investigates how objects are placed and displayed in the world and the cycle of value through which they move. Her tendency is to reinterpret and reassemble a variety of high and low objects and strategies, blurring the distinction between content and style, production and mass-consumption, originals and copies, readymade and made work. Both photography and collecting may be seen as acts of acquisition and/or preservation; a key interest for Lycan is to not only to address the medium of photography, but also to create a shifting identity between sculpture, painting/drawing and photography. These ideas create hybrids of vernacular collections, art history, contemporary art and design; often paradigms collide, revealing similarities, influences and failures.

Kelly Lycan is an installation and photo-based artist residing in Vancouver, Canada. She received her BFA from Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, and her MFA from the University of California, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles. Her work has been exhibited both nationally and internationally, most recently at a solo show at Or Gallery, Vancouver, Canada. She is also a member of Instant Coffee, a service-oriented artist collective that has exhibited in Canada, South America, Europe and the USA.

Yen-Hua Lee

Yen-hua Lee works with drawings and light, and her current project involves a collection of timeworn books published in various countries around the world. Lee seeks out the books on her own and accepts donated copies from friends. Anthropomorphizing the books, Lee considers their journey from publication to destination, and she views her time traveling with the books as a dialogue. She is currently developing an installation work and video, and she intends to use incense to make holes on the pages of books, which will then be projected with light. For Lee, creating holes is a process of making space.

Yen-Hua Lee (born Taiwan) graduated from the National Art University of Taiwan in 2002 and earned a MFA in 2007 from Northern Illinois University. Lee has received several art residency fellowships and her work has been shown in Argentina, Austria, Canada, Germany, Italy, Taiwan, and the United States.
