Anouk Lamm Anouk is ar=s=c prac=ce spans pain=ng, drawing, sculpture, installa=on, and wri=ng. Their manifesto claims: “No Age, No Gender, No Origin”, or as they say: “I am no one I am nothing” which could be a reference to their embedment in Zen Buddhism. Anouk iden=fies as trans-non-binary and by virtue of this and living as a Person with au=sm, it is crucial to them to rid themselves of the external a`ribu=ons and labels that come from norma=ve society in order both to see and encounter others without the violence of classifica=on and an=cipa=on, to be truly open.
The star=ng point of their pain=ngs is the raw linen, the canvases itself is crucial. The unprimed frontside of the linen is a living part of their works and becomes a connec=ng visual element across several series. Their colour pale`e is strictly limited, most oDen to earthy colours, hues of black and off-white are also present; reduc=on is key. Anouk works both in series and independently of series – some pain=ngs are solely abstract, while others are predominantly figura=ve – all of which is connected by unique handwri=ng and gestural strokes. Text or text fragments are also part of their prac=ces. The texts are inten=onally unobtrusive, some=mes they require viewers to look for them. These give a hint or raise ques=ons.
In their work, Anouk returns to certain mo=fs, beings, and rhythms, which they unite together into a singular, holis=c cosmos, with the aim of conjuring peaceful spaces for contempla=on with a strong undercurrent of desire. This can be seen in their mostly figura=ve representa=ons in the “Lesbian Jazz” series, which features abstract symbols and mo=fs embedded next to naked bodies. The bodies on the canvas are oDen female or non-binary, some=mes sexless, and always anonymous. Faces or facial expressions are rare and usually leD out, because “Lesbian Jazz” portrays above all iden=ty, a lifestyle, a community, and not individualised portraits. Their ar=s=c prac=ce emerges from the urgent need for queer visibility in a world rife with discrimina=on, and their pain=ngs explore the visual languages of fluid iden=ty and body as they are coded and re-coded within society.

Morae Shin is a contemporary artist renowned for her dreamy yet sensuous artistic world. Her works often employ pink tones and neon lighting, creating a unique atmosphere that blends vivid colors with expressionless figures. Through these figures, she conveys emotions such as solitude and emptiness, inviting viewers to interpret and confront the feelings embedded within her art from their own perspectives.

Since beginning her career in 2013, She has expanded her creative endeavors across various mediums, including digital illustration, painting, and video art. She regards her work as a "diary," capturing elements closest to her heart. This approach allows her to infuse her creations with her distinctive sensibility and personal narratives.

Gyubin Seong’s work is based on his everyday joy, interest, and curiosity about his neighbours. She is developing his potential through various artistic endeavours while studying for a degree in fine art at the Seoul National University of Science and Technology. She finds comfort and love in the insignificant moments of daily life, reconstructing them with his mind. Instead of a formal description, she frequently transforms shapes to capture the mood and feelings of the moment. She brings warm memories to the audience through sensitive observation and expression that evokes the senses of sight, hearing, and scent.

Jo Jae, an artist based in Seoul, is fundamentally interested in the concept of "space" — a place created, inhabited, and sometimes demolished by humans. A space itself symbolizes the people who occupy it, and its inhabitants inevitably leave traces of themselves. These traces can become important clues, sparking intense curiosity. Driven by this curiosity, Jo Jae crafts stories with images based on these clues. Her work spans photography, installations, and even design, but she sees no difference between these acts. Photography, as the flat print of tangible objects, conveys an ethereal subject matter, allowing the relationship between images and stories to leave room for imagination. This is why photographic media currently remains her most preferred medium.
Jo Jae’s work begins in the virtual realm. Since 2020, she has been translating the intersection between digital images and their original counterparts into a sculptural form. By visualizing the gap between digital images and the unprocessed originals, she aims to establish a new sense that bridges the virtual and the real worlds.

Kitti Narod trained at Wi`ayalai Pohchang Art College, Bangkok, from 1996 - 1998, and later obtained his Bachelor of Arts degree from the Rajamonkong Ins=tute of Technology in 2000. He has exhibited extensively both domes=cally and interna=onally, including in Singapore, London, Bath, Edinburgh, Manchester, Dublin, Cork, Montreal, and Melbourne.
Ki} Narod creates pain=ngs that convey a sense of joy and op=mism through gentle and warm portrayals of daily life and human rela=onships. In his pain=ngs, everyone and everything exist together in a utopia. This no=on may seem unrealis=c to some, especially during an era of social division, but the ar=st’s work tries to remind us to appreciate the simple pleasures and raise a`en=on to everyday mundane ma`ers. In which, euphoric feelings will not seem so una`ainable. The ar=st considers his works to be an intersec=on for diversity, where all the physical and spiritual are equal.
Ki} Narod’s recent solo exhibi=ons include “Summer Wind”, Tang Contemporary Art (Hong Kong Sar, China, 2022; “Fragrant City: Ki} Narod Solo Exhibi=on”, Tang Contemporary Art, Bangkok (Thailand, 2021); “Roles in Life”, We Gallery, Shenzhen (China, 2020); “Joy Land”, Tang Contemporary Art, Bangkok (Thailand, 2020); “Ki} Narod Exhibi=on by O‘logy”, PPP, Taipei, Taiwan (China, 2019). Recent group exhibi=ons include “Falling”, Tang Contemporary Art, Beijing (China, 2022); “The Space Between Us II” at ICONSIAM, Tang Contemporary Art, Bangkok (Thailand, 2021); “The Space Between Us I” at ICONSIAM, Tang Contemporary Art, Bangkok (Thailand, 2020); “A Silent Voice”, Tang Contemporary Art, Bangkok (Thailand, 2020); “Spectrosynthesis II - Exposure of Tolerance: LGBTQ in Southeast Asia”, Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC), Bangkok (Thailand, 2019).

Yaikel grew up in a city in Chile. The primal power of Mother Nature, urbanity, deserts, folk culture, ancient civilizations, and legends are the main materials that provide him with artistic inspiration. He says “I draw inspiration from elements in nature and the landscape that captivate my attention, as well as iconic objects and places from our culture. The idea is to contemplate how we relate to one another and to our environment.” He explores materials that span from muralism and painting to screen printing and ceramics to seek to develop a unique language through which I can communicate visually with the viewer.

Abdessemed is a conceptual artist who works in a range of media including drawing, video, photography, performance, and sculpture, and collaborates with creators from many fields, from poetry to dance and architecture. He manipulates familiar materials and images to create provocative and often violent works influenced by his exposure to the Gulf War and its global impact. Drawing on personal, political, and historical narratives, the artist believes that his art “is a confrontation that leads to a break with the norm and is accompanied by extreme anger,” but that his work is simultaneously  “…actually positive. The world is violent – not me".
Abdessemed’s work has been presented at four Venice Biennales (2003, 2007, 2011, 2015), where he received the Benesse Prize in 2007.  He has been the subject of solo exhibitions at major institutions including the Centre Georges Pompidou, the San Francisco Art Institute, MoMA PS1, and the Musée d’art moderne et contemporain in Geneva. His work is held in the permanent collections of the Musée d’art moderne de la Ville de Paris, the Musée national d’art moderne Georges-Pompidou, Paris, the Collection Budi Tek, Shanghai, and the Fondation François Pinault, Venice, among others.

Channing Hansen was born in 1972 in Los Angeles, USA. His knitted works tread the line between painting and sculpture with their web-like construction occasionally revealing the stretcher behind.
Their relationship to craft may initially seem to be at odds with the scientific concepts informing the algorithm. However, bringing these two disciplines into dialogue allows Hansen to explore the tension between chaos and order, as the artist’s hand introduces human variability within
an otherwise programmatic composition. This is evident in the forms his textiles evoke, which might resemble tendrils of DNA, crystalline structures, or biomorphic shapes.

1996 Born in Fukuoka.
Influenced by anime and manga culture during boyhood. In 2017, he started working as an illustrator based in Fukuoka. He creates and presents his works in digital and analog formats. The female with characteristic ennui expressions are a projection of the artist's own inner self.

He explores the ways in which events and objects with fragile qualities are transformed into paintings that project his view of the world. The paintings, created by transferring the shapes of intuitive and impulsive trajectories to the canvas, coloring them, and superimposing sketch lines that go back in time, reflect the site of the artist’s body’s vital encounter with and understanding of the world. The shapes formed by the jagged, impulsive trajectories are glazed and clumsy, but there is a recollected sincerity behind their appearance.

The artist creates drawings on the fly, collecting and reinterpreting ideas from objects. He has seen closely or encountered by chance. He perceives the paper or canvas, the support for recording the trajectory, only in his peripheral vision and draws according to the impulsive rhythm of his hand, or he chooses visual isolation, not looking at the support at all. Relying on guesswork and sensation to capture shapes, the recorded objects become the sketches for the paintings, with their fuzzy shapes. Freed from the desire to reproduce the surface of the object, this act aims to truthfully record the indeterminacy and ambiguity of the body’s impulsiveness. The lines thus drawn help me to focus on the abstract fragments of the events encountered and the elements of the painting.

The brushstrokes that apply oil pigment to the drawing’s shapes move and lay out the color plane based on the direction of the drawing strokes, such as where they are applied with pressure and the rhythm of the line. In this process, the drawing outline inevitably becomes embedded in the pigment of the oil painting, which is then scratched out again with a pencil or re-emphasized with a darker brush, preserving the past trajectory as a final image. The forms maintained by the dense outlines create the appearance of a solid exoskeleton that blocks intervention from the outside, but the gaps between lines and lines become a fragile exoskeleton that allows for contact with the outside. In Jang’s paintings, the viewer’s gaze is actively invited to penetrate through the gaps in the outline, just as bacteria penetrates through the gaps in an exoskeleton, creating a field of interaction with the artist’s paintings. This phenomenon is not only the artist’s way of being in a world with complex causal relationships, but also the embodiment of the artist’s attitude toward such a world.

Fairuz Paisan (b. 1981, Malaysia), affectionately known as Po Oi in the Malaysian art scene, graduated with a Master’s degree in Fine Art and Technology from Mara University of Technology in 2014. Actively participating in numerous projects and exhibiting in seminal art exhibitions, Po Oi has gained recognition as an innovative voice in contemporary Malaysian sculpture. His work uniquely explores the organic form of the circle through materials such as wood and fiberglass, combining traditional craftsmanship with a modern Art Deco sensibility.

Through his dedication, Po Oi delves into the hidden complexities of the circular shape, which he sees as a pathway to uncovering deeper simplicity. His sculptures, from wall-mounted pieces to free-standing forms, are carefully constructed, blending fiberglass—symbolic of external beauty—and wood—to represent the underlying essence within. This approach invites viewers to reflect on the contrast between appearance and inner reality, leading them to a quiet, almost sacred center within each piece.

Not only are his pieces celebrated for their technical skill and elegant form, but they also reflect a subtle interplay with pop culture, capturing elements of movement and fluidity. Po Oi’s work is exhibited widely in Malaysia and has garnered acclaim in regional art fairs and galleries. Through his artistic exploration, Po Oi continues to enrich Malaysia's contemporary art scene, inspiring new perspectives on form, depth, and beauty in sculpture.

Bae Bien U(b. 1950) holds both undergraduate and graduate degrees from Hongik University's School of Applied Art, and has remained internationally active since his first solo exhibition in 1982. In 2006, he was the first Asian photographer to hold a solo exhibition at the Thyssen Bornemisza Museum in Spain, and was commissioned by the Spanish government to film the garden of the Alhambra(Granada, Spain), a world heritage site, for two years. Bae continued to hold large-scale solo exhibitions at venues that range from the Gwangju Museum of Art(2015), the Musée d'art moderne de Saint-etienne(France, 2015), and the Château de Chambord(France, 2015~2016) to the Wilmotte Foundation(Venice, Italy, 2022). He was awarded Lee Jung-sub Arts Award in 2016 and Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts & Lettres from the French government in 2017.

It expresses the emotions of love and longing—too profound to be fully captured by language—through a fusion of visual and auditory art.

After graduating from Musashino Art University junior college art department, he worked as an illustrator, focusing on magazine media such as "BRUTUS", "Cyzo", in-flight magazine "Tsubasa no Oukoku", advertising, apparel, music, and TV programs. 2010 first solo exhibition "PROM HEARTS c/w 10SEC.TILL LOVE" (No.12gallery)
After a career of about 25 years of drawing illustrations in acrylic, watercolor, and pencil for magazines and advertisements, he worked on oil paintings as if he had regained his early artistic impulses. Hamburgers, hot dogs, cartoon characters, and other icons of the American West Coast culture of the 1980s that the artist admired are drawn thickly with a painting knife. While depicting the symbol of a happy era, the complex of post-war Japan is painted over. It seems to be an expression of fetishism seen in Japanese subcultures that cuts out objects and characters in a straightforward manner. Here, there is an awareness of doubting conventional authorities such as nations and religions, and trying to perceive the past from various possibilities through individual feelings and actions. He mixes concrete figures that symbolize the era with abstractions that deviate from the image, and tries to depict the transformation of meaning in the times from what lies in between.

Mit Jai Inn (1960, Chiang Mai) is a widely respected senior Thai artist. He studied at Silpakorn University, Bangkok (1982-1986) and Academy of Arts, Vienna (1987-1992). He is a co-founder of the Chiang Mai Social Installation Project (1992 – ) and engaged with The Land. Jai Inn’s recent exhibitions include Medium at Large, Singapore Art Museum (2014), Postpositive: Freaky You Are Always, SA SA BASSAC, Phnom Penh (2013), Untitled, H Gallery, Chiang Mai (2013), All Our Relations, 18th Biennale of Sydney, Australia (2012), Museum Serve Project, Bangkok Art and Cultural Center, Bangkok, Thailand (2011).

NOH Sangho (b. 1986) is a natural born storyteller, sincere practitioner and bold experimenter. Browsing the Internet and social media daily, the artist diligently collects myriad images of the day to day. NOH reconstructs the fragments selected from an array of images onto carbon paper, which is a medium that represents him as an artist. The works, executed on carbon paper, reveal the artist’s unique perspective on the flexibility of the “image” in the digital era, defined by a flood of images that travel and transform freely across platforms. Furthermore, in an attempt to expand the theme of his work to realizing the three-dimensionality of images, the artist introduces a series of works in which 2D planes and 3D moving images are intertwined organically. NOH, who considers the manner in which his works are presented and consumed to be an essential part of his practice, explores various bold and experimental ways of installation, such as largescale wall hangings and drawings on hangers—reminiscent of a clothing store.


NOH Sangho was born in Seoul, Korea, in 1986. He received his BFA in Printmaking at Hongik University in 2013, and MFA in Fine Arts at Seoul National University of Science & Technology in 2022. He has held solo exhibitions at various institutions such as ARARIO GALLERY SEOUL (Seoul, Korea, 2024), ARARIO GALLERY SHANGHAI (Shanghai, China, 2023), ARARIO MUSEUM in SPACE (Seoul, Korea, 2018), SongEun ArtCube (Seoul, Korea, 2017), and SeMA West Warehouse (Seoul, Korea, 2016), as well as group exhibitions held at Ilmin Museum of Art (Seoul, Korea, 2023; 2018), ARARIO GALLERY SEOUL (Seoul, Korea, 2023; 2021; 2016), Isetan The Space (Tokyo, Japan, 2022), ARARIO GALLERY CHEONAN (Cheonan, Korea, 2021), Atelier Hermès (Seoul, Korea, 2020), Daegu Art Museum (Daegu, Korea, 2019), SongEun ArtSpace (Seoul, Korea, 2018), Kumho Museum of Art (Seoul, Korea, 2017), National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (Gwacheon, Korea, 2017; 2014), and more. The artist gained attention for being selected in the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art's Young Exploration 2014. He was the artist-in-residence at the SeMA Nanji Residency (Seoul, Korea) in 2015, and also participated in an artist residency exchange program between Hungary and Korea (Budapest, Hungary) in 2016. He won the Lee Sang Wook Prize (Korean Contemporary Printmakers Association, Korea) in 2016. His works are collected by institutions such as the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art’s Government Art Bank, Koo House Museum, ARARIO MUSEUM, and more.

Tingky is an artist who pays attention to the various 'emotions' felt in everyday episodes. Most of the things she experiences are caused by emotions and desires such as joy, sorrow, love, hate and anger. And emotions constitute the landscape of her mental and social life. She believes that emotions are the energy to preserve her existence, and that bad and passive emotions can be overcome through stronger, more joyful and active emotions.
Based on the philosophy of emotion, Tingky created a unique character, 'Kaekumi', with unique and playful humor and wit. Kaekumi dreams of happiness, hope and freedom in a finite and absurd life. It is a symbol of freedom to decide and act on its own feelings and desires. And as an active being in life, it is sometimes even heroic. Tingky reveals a different side of the world that could not be known through Reason, through Kaekumi and the magical powers of emotions. Influenced by the colors and utopian worldview of American and Japanese animations in the 2000s, she delightfully portrays that utopia is something that can be found in practical life.

"Free and fun. Sometimes a bit aggressive."
Most of the work is based on the motif of a colourful, pretty girl desperately trying to appeal for something. The world is presented in a simple and realistic way, using appropriation techniques.

Matthew Antezzo (1962, USA) in the 90s made a substantial body of work which took as their models photographic reproductions that he found in magazines, catalogues, monographs and publications dedicated to contemporary art, particulary art from the late Sixties and the early Seventies, the era that witnessed the birth of the most radical neo-vant-garde movements of the postwar period.
