Sanna Helena Berger (SE)
Sanna Helena Berger works with site- and situation-specific installations informed and influenced by critical theory, philosophy and analysis. Her extensive writing acts not only as a coupling discourse to the exhibition, but presents the exhibition as an extension of her writing - material and theory lands on par. Her auto-didactic position manifests as a reflexive discipline, particularly in her writing, where Berger melange auto-biography with theory, utilising language both as method and topic, set in a non-disciplined form. The voice oscillates between the empirical and observed, leaving a self unpolished, openly inadequate - as with her material works, embracing lack, showing dilemma; opposing a final finish.
Sanna Helena Berger (b. 1983, SE) lives and works in Berlin. Recent exhibitions and performances include: and, then, Westfälischer Kunstverein, Münster; Schmutztitel, Kunsthalle Wien, Vienna; Absolut, Shahin Zarinbal, Berlin; Under, Simian, Copenhagen; Metod, Antics, Stockholm, Texte zur Kunst, Berlin; Bourse, Centralbanken, Oslo.

Cecilie Norgaard (DK)
Cecilie Norgaard incorporates traditional painting techniques with an inherent conceptual sensibility to consider implications between aesthetics, artistic production and socio-economic living conditions. Through a vocabulary of recurring signs and images, her work challenges the context of the medium, its formats and conditions, thematising institutional structures and the commercial world order of our present.
Cecilie Norgaard (b. 1991, DK) lives and works in Berlin. Recent solo exhibitions include Emotionally Invested, O-Overgaden, Copenhagen; Die Installierte Reale (with Sanna Helena Berger), Rinde am Rhein, Düsseldorf; Success Media, Shahin Zarinbal, Berlin; Cave Painting, Matteo Cantarella, Copenhagen; WHEELS, galeriepcp, Paris; Stretch and Ground, Rinde am Rhein, Düsseldorf.

Stella Sieber (DE)
Working across painting and installation, Stella Sieber examines representation as model, narrative process, and event. The image maps both social environments and the intervals between individuals, reimagining the scaling of space and place as a surface. Sequenced, broken, and aged materials, intelligible forms, and colors trace a practice of repair in which hierarchical orders and markers of agency are disrupted.
Stella Sieber (b. 1992, DE) lives and works in Berlin. She graduated from HFBK Hamburg and holds an MFA from Malmö Art Academy. Her work has been shown at Gl. Strand (DK), Christiania Biennale (DK), Rinde am Rhein (DE), Christian Torp (NO), Neue Alte Brücke (DE), Sangt Hipolyt (DE) and City Galerie Wien, among others.

Liu Shiyuan (CN)
Liu Shiyuan works across photography, drawing, text, and installation to explore the relationship between images and narratives. Having grown up in China during a phase of unprecedented technological advances, global, commercialization and popular culture assimilation, and later traveling and living between China, the U.S. and Europe, Liu adapted and cultivated an innate sensibility unique to the contemporary Chinese diaspora. Her method oftentimes involves deconstructing and reassembling images down to pixels and video stills, the fundamental units of contemporary visual communication. This meticulous process of searching, cutting, and re-editing images generates new forms of visual expression, thus revitalizing images with original meaning and emotional potential.
Liu Shiyuan (b. 1985, China) lives and works in Copenhagen. She graduated with an MFA from the Photography Department of the School of Visual Arts, New York, USA and holds a BFA from the Digital Media Art Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing, China. Her work has been widely exhibited, including at Fotografiska Shanghai; Guggenheim Museum; UCCA Dune; Frost Art Museum; Yuz Museum; NGV Triennial; UCCA Beijing; K11 Art Museum; Cleveland Triennial; Yinchuan Biennale, Fondation Louis Vuitton; Kunsthalle Düsseldorf; and the Shenzhen Sculpture Biennale, among others.
