Eunice Adorno Martínez
Eunice Adorno Martinez’s photographic documentary work focuses on the dynamics of migration, music, identity, youth, and traditions. She seeks conceptual and discursive routes for a visual poetry on migration and explores concepts such as trajectory and reunion. Her current project focuses on Mexican migration in neighborhoods of New York City, considering identity, tradition and festivities of Mexican youth. Martinez is exploring ways in which young people meet and interact with other generations, social groups and cultural norms.
Eunice Adorno Martinez lives and works in Mexico City and her photography has appeared in a wide range of publications, including national magazines and photography journals. She is the recipient of the 2010 Jovenes Creadores Grant Fondo Nacional para la Cultura y las Artes for her series Fraum Blam, and has an upcoming publishing project with Fabrica editorial de España.

Yvonne Brückner
Yvonne Brückner works at the intersection of ceramic sculpture and puppetry. The question of how movement is expressed in a sculpture and the way the appearance of the object changes if it is actually put into motion is the central aspect of her work. Brückner employs the technique of stop motion video to combine the dynamic quality of a sculpture with actual time-based motion. A relatively new subject for her artistic explorations is therefore the way the perception of a three-dimensional object differs from looking at a flat film image.
Yvonne Brückner (born 1981, Starnberg, Germany) completed an apprenticeship at the Berufsfachschule für Keramik, Landshut, Germany (School for Ceramic Crafts), in 2003. She worked with Elizabeth Ross in Morelia, Mexico, on La Tierra Viva, and for the past seven years, Brückner has regularly participated in collaborative performing arts projects in Dresden, Halle and Berlin. During her studies in 2007, she took part in an exchange program at Ohio University, Athens. In 2010 Brückner earned a diploma in Fine Arts from Burg Giebichenstein University of Art and Design, Halle.
