Ken + Julia Yonetani
Ken + Julia Yonetani are a Japanese-Australian artist duo who create large installations in gallery spaces. They often combine unusual materials in their practice to make dramatic installations. Their work ties historical connections with contemporary issues in ways that force the viewer to confront their relationship to their environment.
Ken + Julia Yonetani have exhibited work across Australia, and in North America, Asia and Europe, including at the Venice Biennale, National Museum of Singapore, and National Gallery of Australia, Canberra.

Sara Enrico
Sara Enrico’s work is based on the concept of “weave,” encompassing both objects and language. Working with analog and digital processes and employing painting with textiles, she investigates material surface in relation to the body. Her abstract shapes connote the haptic and the anthropomorphous.
Sara Enrico has exhibited works in Italy and abroad, including Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Turin; Les Instants Chavirés, Montreuil; and Fondazione Antonio Ratti, Como, amongst others.

Lise Duclaux
Lise Duclaux intervenes into humanity’s ways of being, looking and understanding. Self-determination is her raw material, she cultivates and looks at life in all its complexities while capturing its poetic and precarious dynamisms. She is particularly interested in making invisible and underground lives apparent. She works in drawing, writing, gardening, typographic composition, performance and photography. Duclaux’s works are constantly evolving, from one project to the next as she reuses and adapts her strategies.
Lise Duclaux lives and works in Brussels, Belgium. She has exhibited work at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Antwerp; Lille Métropole Museum of Modern, Contemporary and Outsider Art (LaM), Villeneuve-d’Ascq Lille Métropôle; and MAC Musée des Arts Contemporains, Grand-Hornu, amongst others.
