Rasmus Søndergaard Johannsen
Rasmus Søndergaard Johannsen creates process-lead works across mediums such as installation, photography and sculpture. Concerned with the transformative abilities of elements and the properties that make up materials, Johannsen engages a scientific approach to his subjects. He creates a ‘formula’ of deconstructed and reassembled components, which is then left to external factors, such as the atmosphere, to determine the outcome.
Rasmus Søndergaard Johannsen has exhibited work at Kunst Bygningen i Vrå, Denmark; Pragovka Gallery, Prague; and KW Institute of Contemporary Art, Berlin, among others.

Jens Settergren
Jens Settergren is concerned with the production of collective imaginaries, contemporary mythologies, desire, and visual culture. His works reflect how these subjects are expressed in images, objects, and language. Working individually and collectively, he explores correlations between technology, nature, escapism, and power. Lately his work has taken the form of immersive installations synthesizing different means of expression revolving around the notions of simulation and synesthesia – incorporating smell, temperature, sound, and color as a strategy to evoke various mental imagery.
Jens Settergren has exhibited work at die raum, Berlin; INCA Institute, Portland; and Kunsthal Aarhus, among others.
