Artist

Klára Orosz

Klára Orosz’s practice centers on the viewer’s interaction with objects and space. Her works explore visual and spatial perception, often involving installations that transform the gallery into interactive settings, constantly testing and pushing the boundaries between the object and the observer. Her aim is to create relational situations by minimizing the distance between the exhibited work and the viewer, inviting the audience to participate.

Klára Orosz has exhibited work at OSTRALE Biennale, Germany; Hungarian Academy in Rome, Italy; and Goldsmiths College, United Kingdom, among others.

Szilvia Bolla

The installation is a sensual body machine with organs turned inside-out that becomes a target of the external world. Corporeal and exposed, it attempts to seek possible forms of survival within fictional and real bio/eco/psycho-spheres. It comes to matter through its own performativity, struggle to navigate the complexity of the profoundly human, nonhuman and technological, and ultimate relief in hybrid materiality. It reconstructs itself not as an organism or entity but as a series of open-ended systems functioning within other massive systems.

Artist

Nikola Ivanov

Nikola Ivanov is an intermedia artist with a background in photography, primarily working with video and text. His artistic exploration delves into themes encompassing sleep, biopolitics, time, and memory. Recently graduating from the PhD program at the Academy of Arts Architecture & Design in Prague, his dissertation project focuses on the concept of night colonization. It proposes illuminating the Earth by deploying satellites equipped with orbiting mirrors.

Nikola Ivanov has exhibited work at Galerie UM, Czech Republic; Czech Centre in Sofia, Bulgaria; and East Slovak Gallery, Slovakia, among others.
