Kahori Kamiya

In her practice, Kahori Kamiya examines her Japanese identity and womanhood, reflecting on issues of racial discrimination and grief while delving into her own experience with topics like maternity, breastfeeding, and the pandemic. Kamiya employs organic shapes, semi-figurative drawings, and crystals in her painted sculptures to allude to traditional Japanese spirituality and its affinity to nature.

Kahori Kamiy has exhibited work at Solo Exhibition at Amos Eno Gallery, Brooklyn; Dumbo Arts Festival, Brooklyn; and the 14th WRO Media Art Biennale, Warsaw, among others.

Mandy Espezel

Mandy Espezel is an interdisciplinary artist working with paintings and site-specific installations. Espezel’s works engage in an intersectional feminist-phenomenological discourse and investigate visceral representations of anxiety, desire, humour, and failure. She explores how intuitive processes manifest bodily knowledge, while questioning the division of the material and the conceptual and addressing the authority of a hierarchical-binary-system.

Mandy Espezel has exhibited work at Southern Alberta Art Gallery, Canada; Trükimuuseum Gallery, Estonia; and Space Gachang Gallery, South Korea, among others.

Veronika Eberhart

Veronika Eberhart is a visual artist and musician based in Vienna. In her research-based practice, she seeks formal translation to her work through her transdisciplinary approach to video, sound, performance, and sculptural installations. She uses media to negotiate conceptual issues with the sensitivity of feminist and art historical artistic practices.

Veronika Eberhart has exhibited work at The MAK Center, Los Angeles; Kunsthalle Wien, Vienna; and Belvedere 21, Vienna among others.
