Dev Dhunsi (b. 1996 in Trondheim, Norway) is a multidisciplinary artist and photographer currently based in Stockholm, Sweden, holding an art degree from the Oslo National Academy of the Arts and currently doing a MFA at The Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm.

In his practice he is working interdisciplinary and camera-based while challenging the photographic medium and ways of display and representation through installations, publications, and curatorial projects. With special focus on how images are being distributed and objectified physically and digitally.

Dev’s own photographic work comes from sounding reverberations of geographies he mainly experienced through listening to South Asia in the migratory movement of part of his family. He has followed sound in its different tonalities, including pollution and the patterns and gestures of nature.

Textile, water, and sound are a red thread in Dhunsi’s work to analyze the politics of disruption and dissociation in which we live. We continue to carry as individuals and collectives the trauma and effects of cultural and physical displacement dictated by geographies of power, Norway sitting at one end of such chain.

Recently Dhunsi’s work touches upon the complexity of society with its many-scapes (landscape, soundscape, mediascape), with images traveling, composing, and decomposing themselves into a liquid pool always on the verge of renewal and disappearance.

Yu Shuk Pui Bobby (b. 1994) is a visual artist and filmmaker based in Hong Kong and Oslo. Bobby’s practice is focused on building intimate relationships and collaborations, where physical, tangible and affective phenomena associated with body politics and the future are created by the media of video, text, installation, sculpture, and performance.

Her project Genetic Salon uses speculative fiction within the themes of human genetic engineering to refigure perceptions towards gender, body and historical discourses of identity. In recent years, Bobby has started to work on video making with different communities as a means of exploring identity construction in various cultural contexts and collective aspects. Through intertwining semi-fictional narratives, she describes memory and experiences of identification.
