My works can be divided in to two categories thematically. One is a surreal almost dreamlike emotional and experience-basedsetting, dominant of female figures. The other is based on a composition of wild rhythms and patterns of different animals, this go way back to my childhood obsession with Riga Zoo, where I could meet all the exotic and colorful animals of the world. Back in Soviet times there was travel restrictions and this was my escape to the world outside the grey iron curtains.

After completing his BA in fashion design at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, he went on to earn his Master's degree from the Oslo National Academy of the Arts in 2016. Incorporating influences from manga, high-tech culture, sci-fi, and mechanical aesthetics, Wan's distinctive body of work explores various art forms and clothing design to interpret the contemporary world. His creations serve as a canvas to express his unique motifs on the human form, delving into themes of uniformity and the augmentation of the body through armor-like designs.

Leander Herzog is a visual artist based in Switzerland, creating images with code since 2006. His focus is generative and interactive abstraction on the web. Currently he combines his experience from building websites and digital products with generative art and the new potential NFTs present. Herzog's practice explores visual maximalism enabled by contemporary computer graphics and the widespread availability of networked screens as well as minimalist abstraction based on web technology standards. He plays with the contrast between the simplicity of algorithmic systems and the complexity of their emergent properties. In the last decade, his work evolved from static images to moving visuals and real-time experiences on the web, including generative audio, interactive installations, data driven sculpture and digital fabrication.

Maria Helena K. Nerhus (1992) is an architect with artistic practice based in Bergen(NO). Nerhus works with plural narratives unfolding in socio-cultural cases connected to the notion of a place, a concept, or an object. Through subtle acts of investigating relations between fictitious and physical spaces, territorial and geographical areas, and borders, she explores how human and non-human agency comes into play. In analogue photography, Nerhus is fascinated by spatial qualities in casual situations, and she observes accidental and dynamic changes, in the relation between the photographed object, and its awareness, of the camera’s presence.
