Tatjana Vall explores elements from psychology, art history, and computer science in her installation-based practice. Her research residencies have taken her to places such as Iceland and Samos, and most recently she held a research fellowship at the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics. Her work has been exhibited internationally and reflects on the intersections of perception, space, and technology.
Justin Urbach focuses on media spaces where digital image production, technological infrastructures, and sensory experience are interwoven. His work centers on the transformation of perception through technical image media, which not only alter forms of representation but also recode our relationship to space and the body. His projects often emerge in the context of residencies both in Germany and abroad.
