Yoav FRIEDLÄNDER: My work presents the chaotic perception of an “Americanized Israeli”; it is composed of mediated American culture, desert landscapes, and war (an integral part of life).

Dana STIRLING: My family roots back to England, but I was born in Israel. I was a child on a fence; a daughter to a migrating family. . . .

Melissa ANDERSON: This project attempts to make people become more empathetic by relating environmental issues to the human body by pairing portraits with unadulterated photographs of a local stream. By doing this, I encourage the viewer to question our relationship with nature.

Graham BILLINGS: “Normative Fluidity” is a museum extension that explores the process of transposition between a series of light studies, diagrammatic implications of the “affect,” and their resultant three-dimensional forms and spaces. Diffraction of light through water is known as caustics; a process that was coupled with a camera obscura during my initial research.

william ECKERSLEY: It is a collection of large format images that I’ve shot over the last four years depicting the urban environment at night. London tends to covered by clouds, so daylight is flat, diffused and grey. At night however, you find sharp areas of light and shade in sometimes sickly colour temperatures from all the different light sources (sodium, halogen, fluorescent, etc). With the eerie lack of humanity, it’s also possible to view the urban environment without it’s inherent purpose of serving and facilitating human life, and so revealing to me questions about its “genius or folly, beauty or ugliness.”

lucas SIMÕES: I invited some intimate friends to make their portrait photographs while they tell a secret. My intention was not to listen to the secret, but to capture the images, so I asked them to choose a song for me to listen on my headphone while o took the photographs. After the shooting session I asked them if their secret has any color, each portrait carries the secrets colors.

daniel BARTHMANN: Since a few years my photographic work consists of the attempt devising an appropriation of defined places and spaces. This could be inside a building or outside. One series deals with the inner context of an apartment, an other with the course along an urban road or landscape. So the inital point for me is the self-imposed constraint upon a defined space that i choose to explore and turn into. It’s about an exploration of architectural settings and arranged things (intended or not) as corresponding components in a constant changing spatial context.
