Tali Keren
Tali Keren is a multidisciplinary artist and educator born in Jerusalem and based in Brooklyn. Her performances, videos, and installations center on the formation of political ideology, historical mythologies, and the ongoing legacies of settler colonialism. Through poetic interventions into archival sources, legislative documents, and the creation of immersive documentary installations, Keren seeks to unsettle foundational national myths. Her practice is grounded in collaboration, cross-disciplinary dialogue, and experimental pedagogy as a way to forge new forms of collectivity and political imaginaries.
Tali Keren has exhibited at Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, Detroit; Queens Museum and Eyebeam, both New York City, among others.

Okka-Esther Hungerbühler
Artist Okka-Esther Hungerbühler works with both painting and sculpture to explore different themes. In her paintings, Hungerbühler returns to the shape of the „princess dress“, which she uses abstractly, and depicts rooms as colored sketches of interiors. Her sculptures are creature-like, with a highly simple body shape composed of decorative materials.
Okka-Esther Hungerbühler has exhibited work at Kunstverein Dresden, Dresden; Schwartzsche Villa, Berlin; and mumok Wien, Vienna, among others.
