Since 2017, he has researched the pre-nuclear history and ecological structures of the Salton Sea in California. His interest in the dialogue between human and geological existence, and the impact of human activity upon nature, originated during his studies in Geography and Environmental Science. His observational approach explores landscapes as sites of political and environmental significance.

Ulises Mazzuca
Ulises Mazzuca works across drawing, painting, installation, and sculpture, constructing emotional cartographies shaped by personal experiences that span from affection to pain. Using a system of ideograms, he translates these memories into visual traces that evoke both presence and absence. His works oscillate between horror vacui and fragmented narrative, generating a tension between fullness and incompletion. Rooted in a language of childhood and intimacy, his practice dissolves the conventions of traditional representation.
Ulises Mazzuca has exhibited work at Collegium, Spain; Museo de Arte Moderno, Buenos Aires; and Universidad Torcuato Di Tella, Buenos Aires, among others.

Guo-Liang Tan
Guo-Liang Tan is a visual artist whose practice centers on painting, from which works in other media and modes of presentation occasionally emerge. Surfaces, whether painterly or not, serve as sites for staging gestures of affect and a haunting dialogue with the ghosts of abstraction. His process is marked by gaps and overlaps, fragmentation, and the gathering of traces. Tan is particularly interested in how these elements expand and reorient our perception of the body, time, and attention.
Guo-Liang Tan has exhibited work at Pola Museum of Art, Hakone, Japan; Singapore Art Museum, Singapore; and Sifang Satellite Space, Shanghai, among others.
