Polina Kanis
Polina Kanis’s works interrogate the suspended moment and expose the dialectical relationship between action and non-action, dissolving the boundary between human and non-human. The artist aims to create shifts in accepted temporalities to decentralize the ‘normal’ human temporal perspective. She considers re-describing and re-sensing our surroundings as crucial for developing an alternative outlook on the planetary.
Polina Kanis has exhibited work at VISIO, Florence; Russian Federations’ pavilion of the 2020 Venice Architecture Biennale; and The Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten, Amsterdam, among others.

Kameelah Janan Rasheed
Kameelah Janan Rasheed is a learner grappling with the poetics, politics, and pleasures of the unfinished: ecologies of Black living, Black textual production, Black utterances, and Black spiritualities. She creates ecosystems of iterative and provisional projects. These projects include sprawling, “architecturally-scaled” xerox-based collages; large-scale public installations; publications; prints; digital archives; lecture-performances; library interventions; poems/poetic gestures; and other forms yet to be determined.
Kameelah Janan Rasheed has exhibited work at Brooklyn Museum; New Museum of Art, New York; and Institute of Contemporary Art – University of Pennsylvania, among others.
