Andrés Izquierdo (Madrid, 1993) draws on psychoanalysis and allegory to explore themes of childhood, grief, and the restorative qualities of space and objects. Working across a wide range of media—including mobile sculptures, furniture design, figurative ceramics, marker-pen drawings, and architectural installations—his practice is driven by juxtapositions of anarchic yet structured conditions: earth and sky, biology and theology, emergence and dissolution. Fascinated by what is—and at the same time isn’t—Izquierdo interweaves physical presence (landscape, cosmology, and phenomena) with conscious contemplation, expressed through intrusive thoughts, daydreams, and bodily sentiments.

“Today I take photos, tomorrow who knows.”

In her work, Cristina Stolhe (Pontevedra, ES, 1993) examines the experience of daily life through photography. Using analogue and digital cameras—and especially her mobile phone camera—she explores the essence of life while also speculating with what is present, asking “what’s there?” and imbuing her images with emotions that may not be immediately apparent. Her scenes evoke nostalgia and a sense of intimacy and family feeling, while also capturing the present moment through a slow, voyeuristic lens. Stolhe’s practice attempts to appreciate fleeting instants and preserve them, inviting us to reflect on how personal experiences and memories shape our lives and identities.

In 2018, her first book Random Pictures Book was published by Terranova as a tribute to mobile phone photography, exploring today’s overconsumption of images.

Paul Hauptmeier (1993) and Martin Recker (1991) are composers working across composition, sound, and multimedia art. For more than fifteen years, they have collaborated as the artist duo Hauptmeier | Recker, developing projects that span opera, live electronic performance, radio art, electroacoustic music, and site-specific installation. Their practice is rooted in building immersive sonic environments, often translating complex systems—ecological, technological, or social—into sensorial experiences that unfold through sound, space, and light.

They are co-founders and board members of ZiMMT – Center for Immersive Media Art, Music and Technology (Germany), where they curate events and conduct research in the field of spatial audio. Since 2022, they have also taught sound art at the Burg Giebichenstein University of Art (Germany).

Alban Le Henry is a designer trained at ENSCI – Les Ateliers (École Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle). After graduating in 2001, he spent several years assisting the Bouroullec brothers, an experience he often describes as his “second school.” In 2007, he established his own design studio in Paris and has since developed a wide-ranging practice spanning exhibition scenography, industrial design, and collectible objects for galleries.

Le Henry denies having any particular experience, but instead claims to have “a pragmatic vision or technical sensibility” — a statement that reflects his approach to design as an ongoing process of making, testing, and refining through material intelligence and structural clarity.
