Christopher Gambino is an American sculptor based in New York whose practice explores performance, visibility and violence. Working with found objects, stockings and high-heeled shoes, Gambino stages uncanny assemblages that feel like performance ephemera, or the remnants of an unscripted play. Each piece becomes a narrative in itself - a meditation on presence and absence, where everyday objects assume personas and…

Hiromi Nakatsugawa (b. Hiroshima, Japan) is a Japanese and Canadian artist based in Montreal whose drawing practice treats the body as a shifting network rather than a fixed image. Working with colored pencil and graphite, Nakatsugawa builds dense fields of conduits, portals, and hybrid structures that borrow equally from anatomy and infrastructure. Influenced by biomechanical traditions and science-fictive visual…

Bagus Pandega approaches installation as systems design, where low-cost devices become modules that can be reconfigured into new behaviors. Voice recorders, cassette decks, turntables, lamps, and circuit boards are wired into chains of motors and sensors, and the work’s sound and light emerge from the same control logic. In his 2025 presentations at Kunsthalle Basel and the Swiss Institute, spices, plants, and…

At the heart of Georgia Semple’s practice is a simple but destabilizing premise: we do not see life as it is, but as we are. Her canvases, often monumental and densely layered, stage this gap between perception and reality through distorted faces, warped interiors, and communal scenes that never entirely resolve into coherent narratives. Influenced by Guyanese petroglyphs, biblical scripture, and the visual rhetoric…

Born and raised in the Bavarian countryside and currently based in Antwerp, Carmine Antonio Iacolare works across assemblage, performance, and installation. His practice draws on natural and found materials, remnants from farms and tanneries, performative actions, and analogue photography. An ongoing bond to rural environments shapes his focus on material, process, and transformation. His practice explores…

Lucca Cora Süss’s artistic practice revolves around radical transformation and fluid identity. The Zurich-based Swiss artist works with cast-off objects from daily life, altering them through melting, welding, and weaving into newly imagined forms. Grounded in a queer, trans perspective, Süss’s sculptures challenge rigid categories – they remain shapeshifters, constantly in transition. Influenced by thinkers like…

Chicago-based Dan Devening is an artist, curator, writer and educator whose abstract collages speak through the language of color, shape, and surface. Drawing on familiar geometries, Devening teases out the particulars of visual pleasure, spatial play, and material assertiveness. His recent work features motifs and strategies that explore these concerns within deliberately tight parameters. In both his paintings and…

At first glance, YiMiao Shih’s world looks disarmingly cute: flocks of rabbits, sugar-bright colors, toy-scale furniture and outlines that recall comic strips or children’s books. Look longer, and the scenes tilt into something more incisive. Those rabbits are stand-ins for voters, bureaucrats and anxious citizens; the toy houses are proxies for the impossibility of buying real ones; the stitched lines, so…

Bronson Smillie (b. 1992, Calgary, Canada) is a Montréal-based artist whose practice sits at the intersection of drawing and sculpture. Working with dormant objects, often analog castaways of late capitalism’s obsession with digital efficiency, Smillie develops personal systems of logic and mark-making that reactivate them. In doing so, he sidesteps their intended functions and recenters their aura. The result is a…

Mahsa Merci is a Tehran-born, Toronto-based queer artist working across painting, drawing, sculpture, and installation. Her practice studies identity under conditions of instability, especially concealment, fragmentation, and partial visibility. She uses oil painting on wood panels and sculptural assemblage to treat light and shadow as lived states rather than symbols. Paint is often built up into near-relief, and…
