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.

Laura F. Gibellini
In her work Laura F. Gibellini reflects on how the representation of purely physical and geographical sites is linked to the psychological and emotional connotations of used, interior, domestic and domesticated places. Gibellini uses drawing, collage and mixed media to investigate the complexity of livable/inhabited spaces, addressing the paradoxical nature of the domestic realm.

She received her PhD from Complutense University of Madrid after conducting research both at MoMA and at The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum. She is a faculty member of the School of Visual Arts.

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.
