Man Yau (FI)
Man Yau works with sculpture and installation, exploring tension, balance, and the physical properties of materials. With a particular focus on historical craft traditions, she has rigorously trained herself in mastering complex, time-intensive techniques, embedding artisanal knowledge within a contemporary sculptural language. Her works activate space through carefully calibrated structures that heighten bodily awareness and challenge the viewer’s sense of equilibrium and gravity. Through repetition and precision, she foregrounds labor, care, and discipline as integral conceptual components of the work.
Man Yau (b. 1989, Finland; lives in Helsinki) graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts, University of the Arts Helsinki. Named Artist of the Year in Finland in 2025, she presented a solo exhibition at HAM Helsinki Art Museum. Her work is held in public collections such as Kiasma.

Carola Grahn (SE-Sámi)
Carola Grahn’s practice critically examines systems of power, colonial history, and Sámi identity. Through text-based works, sculpture, and installation, she exposes institutional blind spots and confronts inherited narratives embedded within Nordic society. Her practice often employs irony and subtle disruption, destabilizing dominant perspectives while reclaiming space for Indigenous voices within contemporary discourse.
Carola Grahn (b. 1982, Jokkmokk, Sweden; lives in Lund) holds an MFA from the Royal Institute of Art, Stockholm. She has exhibited widely in Sweden and internationally, and her work is included in major collections such as Moderna Museet.

Anna Munk (DK)
Anna Munk works with large-scale painting, drawing on recognizable art historical motifs and compositional structures. By reactivating familiar visual languages, she challenges distinctions between past and present, creating a dialogue between what feels historical and what is distinctly contemporary. Her paintings bridge temporal layers, unfolding spaces where tradition and immediacy coexist, and where painterly surface becomes a site of negotiation between memory and reinvention.
Anna Munk (b. 1994, Denmark; lives in Copenhagen) graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and recently presented a solo exhibition at Overgaden Institute of Contemporary Art.

Clara Gesang-Gottowt (SE)
Clara Gesang-Gottowt’s paintings merge landscape and figuration in luminous, dreamlike compositions. Her works explore perception and memory, dissolving spatial stability and inviting the viewer into atmospheres where reality and imagination subtly intertwine. Through delicate tonal shifts and spatial ambiguity, she constructs environments that feel both intimate and expansive.
Clara Gesang-Gottowt (b. 1989, Stockholm; lives in Lund) holds an MFA from the Royal Institute of Art, Stockholm. Her work was recently shown at Artipelag and is represented in the collections such as Moderna Museet.

Kinga Bartis (RO)
Kinga Bartis is widely recognized for their evocative and emotive paintings that explore themes of identity, longing, love, mourning and more. Their work is rooted in philosophical and psychological frameworks that question how we perceive, understand, and navigate our sense of self and the world around us.
Bartis’ work is characterized by their distinctive use of colour and texture, often blending figurative elements with abstract forms. The paintings evoke a sense of mystery and psychological depth in which they employ a muted, sometimes haunting palette, thus creating works that are introspective and reflective. Their ability to create narrative through nuanced brushstrokes and exploration of the complexities of our conceptions of ourselves and various realities have earned them critical acclaim.
Kinga Bartis (b. 1984, Transylvania) lives and works in Copenhagen. Bartis graduated with an MFA from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2018. Bartis has been exhibited at Museet for Religiøs Kunst (Lemvig), Rønnebæksholm (Næstved), OK CORRAL (Copenhagen), and Lunds Konsthal (Sweden) among others. The gallery opened its first solo exhibition with Bartis in 2021. Bartis has presented solo exhibitions at TRANEN Space for Contemporary Art (Gentofte, Denmark, 2022), Gallerie Margou (Paris, France, 2024) and Brandts Art Museum (Ødense, Denmark, 2025). Bartis’ works can be found in the permanent collection of AMOCA Wales, Trapholt Museum for Modern Art and Design, Denmark and Brandts Art Museum, Denmark.

Julie Falk (DK)
Julie Falk takes discarded bodies as a point of departure—from bronze casts of hair cut from hospital-prescribed wigs to enlargements of cardboard tubes from used fireworks, giant phallic figures that seem over-run, deformed, and embrittled, resting on the floor in the exhibition’s front space. Falk points to the bodily displacement of the artist herself, working away from the studio, as an inverse or anti-position, operating at odds, and meanwhile collecting scrap materials—forms that are discarded, abject, or thrown from use or even from art: Antiforms.
Julie Falk (b. 1991, Copenahgen; DK) is a visual artist based in Copenhagen, Denmark, educated at Konsthogskolna Malmö, Sweden. Falk has recently held solo and group exhibitions at venues including All all all, (Copenhagen; DK), Galleri Susanne Ottesen (Copenhagen; DK), and KØS Museum for kunst i det offentlige rum (Køge; DK). In 2023 she received Anne Marie Carl Nielsen’s talent prize for sculptors.
