Kristi Chen's multi-disciplinary practice weaves together narratives of migration, intergenerational knowledge, and cultural adaptation. She explores the complexities of her ancestral history, connecting it with her own diasporic experience. Raised across diverse regions, Chen reflects on the influence of constant movement and the interplay between traditional cultural practices and the modern world. Inspired by familial stories, Chen incorporates elements of natural materials like basketry, incense and wood in relationship to industrial materials like metal, rubber and plastic. These traditional crafts are reimagined in a contemporary context by creating sculptures that reflect the fragility and resilience of the current diasporic experience.

Yujie Wang is a Toronto-based photographer whose practice is rooted in East-Asian aesthetics and deeply inspired by nature. Her images often capture the moments of stillness and subtle emotion, embracing soft light, quiet compositions, and atmospheric storytelling, Yujie approaches photography as a form of visual poetry—where absence speaks as much as presence, and the unsaid carries weight. Her work often explores themes of transience, memory, and the sublime in the ordinary, inviting viewers into a contemplative, almost meditative space. She received the PhotoEd Magazine Award at the Toronto Outdoor Art Fair 2025.

Hassan Hajjaj (b. 1961, Larache, Morocco) is a Moroccan-British artist, designer, filmmaker, and photographer known for his vivid, joyful celebration of Moroccan culture. His work blends Western pop-art influences with Moroccan aesthetics, drawing inspiration from West African studio-photography traditions, including those of Samuel Fosso, Seidou Keïta, and Malick Sidibé. Hajjaj’s portraits often feature his friends posed in intricately styled settings that fuse street culture, consumerism, haute couture, and hip-hop. Through this layered visual language, he challenges cultural clichés and elevates the everyday and the overlooked.

Marlene Hilton Moore's photographs weave together “women and their place” as encoded through personal, social, and cultural histories. Women's identities are elaborated through handcrafted dresses, social contexts, and a vision and narrative centering authenticity. Works featured in the exhibition draw on several of Hilton Moore’s conceptual series, including She, in which a woman moves within the forest. She combines the essence of life with fable; there is a giving over of the “self” to the forest space. The forest informs. She enters, asks, listens, and receives.

Philip Jessup is a Toronto-based environmental activist whose photography is an extension of his long and fruitful career. It seeks to elucidate the beauty of natural landscapes, in all their complexity and chaos—especially those being altered by climate change. This exhibition features images Jessup has shot across Canada, from Newfoundland to British Columbia, works that reflect the notion of “liminality,” the transitional space between one natural state and another, for instance, a wetland merging into a dry woodland, or a sea or lake spilling onto sand dunes. The quality of liminality is reflected in the transitory character of those spaces, a perfect subject for photographers like Jessup, who seek to record environmental change for future generations.

Sheida Soleimani (b. 1990) is an Iranian-American artist, educator, and activist. The daughter of political refugees who escaped Iran in the early 1980s, Soleimani makes work that excavates the histories of violence linking Iran, the United States, and the Greater Middle East. In working across form and medium—especially photography, sculpture, collage, and film—she often appropriates source images from popular/digital media and resituates them within defamiliarizing tableaux. The composition depends on the question at hand. For example, how can one do justice to survivor testimony and to the survivors themselves (To Oblivion)? What are the connections between oil, corruption, and human rights abuses among OPEC nations (Medium of Exchange)? How do nations work out reparations deals that often turn the ethics of historical injustice into playing fields for their own economic interests (Reparations Packages)? How may the layering of memory and familial history both report fact, and produce a reckoning with the intimate resonances of a geopolitics of violence (Ghostwriter)? In contrast to Western news, which rarely covers these problems, Soleimani makes work that persuades spectators to address them directly and effectively.

Soleimani’s work is held in permanent collections including the Guggenheim Museum, Museum of Fine Arts Boston, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, MIT List Visual Art Center, and Kadist Paris.

Born 1985 in Frankfurt, Lilly Lulay studied photography, sculpture and media sociology in Germany and France. Her works examine photography as a ubiquitous cultural tool. Aware of today’s overproduction of images, Lulay uses her own and other people’s photographs as raw material. In her mixed media projects, combining collage, laser cutting, embroidery, and more, Lulay turns photographs into palpable objects that comment on the influence photographic media have on social behaviour and mechanisms of individual and collective perception. The artist, currently showing in France, Belgium, Germany, and China, has won numerous prizes and scholarships, including the Munich Stadtmuseum Photography Collection's fellowship Artists on Photography 2025/26.

Robert Mapplethorpe (1946-1989) was born in New York. He earned a B.F.A. from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, where he produced artwork in a variety of media, mainly collage. The shift to photography as Mapplethorpe’s sole means of expression happened gradually during the mid-seventies. He took his first photographs of his close friend, the singer-artist-poet Patti Smith, using a Polaroid camera, and later became known for his portraits of composers, architects, socialites, stars of pornographic films, members of the S&M underground, and an array of other unique people, many of whom were personal friends. Mapplethorpe had his first solo exhibition in New York in 1976.

During the early 1980s, his photographs shifted to emphasize classical formal beauty, concentrating on statuesque male and female nudes, delicate flowers, still life, and formal portraits. In 1988, four major exhibitions of his work were organized by the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, The Institute of Contemporary Art at the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, and the National Portrait Gallery in London. These exhibitions, and the controversial works they presented, sparked an international and ongoing debate about public funding for the arts, censorship and other First Amendment concerns, as well as the definition of that which is considered art.

Mapplethorpe died from AIDS on March 9, 1989, in Boston, at age 42. Since that time, his work has been the subject of numerous exhibitions in galleries and museums throughout the world, including major travelling retrospectives. Robert Mapplethorpe’s work is widely collected, and he is considered by many art scholars to be among the most important American photographers of the latter half of the twentieth century.

Gabe Seamon is a Toronto-based visual artist who works across video, performance, painting, drawing, and sculpture. His interventions typically transform digital video into analog forms, exploring both ostensibly obsolete techniques for rendering the moving image and untested strategies for disseminating time-based media. Since moving to Philadelphia in 2022 and earning his MFA from the University of Pennsylvania, this search has refined into effective strategies for feeling more from a moving image by reaching beyond its unrelenting acceleration. Drawn to deliberately slowing down through laborious transfers between mediums, Seamon lays out visual tactics that cut through the boundaries of the analog and digital, revealing slow forms that emerge from within images fraught with immediacy and acceleration.

Celia Perrin Sidarous is an image-based artist living and working in Montréal. Her artworks present assemblages and arrangements, following a logic that is at once internal and associative. Her photographs offer a considered way of looking at collected objects and images within the visual rhetoric of the studio. Referencing histories and the overarching structures of still life, interior arrangement and the placement of objects for display and exhibition, her photographs nonetheless confound the conditions through which everyday objects are usually interpreted and the ways we navigate the material world. Her work has been exhibited widely in Canada and internationally, and she is a laureate of the Prix en art actuel MNBAQ 2023 and the recipient of the Prix Pierre-Ayot (2017).

Marie-Claude Lacroix is a visual artist who lives and works in Montreal. She has developed a pictorial practice shaped by the codes of still life and feminine surrealism. Through visceral, often macabre representations, she explores the territories of the body and the psyche. Her paintings question notions of trauma, healing, and control, deploying emotional landscapes where sensuality, strangeness, and repulsion intertwine. Notable solo and group exhibitions include Rafales, cloisons, L’oeil de Poisson Artist Center, Québec (2023), Foultitude, Projet Casa, Pictura, Montreal (2023), Soleil pâle (dans cette maison ﬁgure ce que nous ne pouvons voir), Le Livart, Montreal (2022), and Tromper l’oeil, Art Mûr Gallery, Montreal (2022). She is the recipient of the Dale and Nick Tedeschi Studio Arts Fellowship and the Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation Grant. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from Concordia University (2022). Her works are included in numerous private collections.

Sophia Oppel is an interdisciplinary artist and researcher based in Toronto. Oppel's art practice deploys transparent substrates - glass, mirror and the screen - as a framework to consider the paradoxes of legibility under surveillance capitalism. She is interested in addressing both the complicity with, and refusal of, biometric capture on a bodily scale by misusing operational imaging technologies to examine the extractive technologies that datafy and scan the body as sites of biopolitical control. Oppel has exhibited locally and internationally, with notable exhibitions including Everything Must Go, CAFKA.25 Biennial, Kitchener, ON (2025), Edging the Unscratchable Digital Itch, InterAccess, Toronto, ON (2025), on either side of a surface, Arsenal Contemporary, Toronto, ON (2023), Future Voyage: The Time for Adaptation, Society for Arts and Technology, Montreal, QC (2023), and site-specific projects in Tokyo, Japan and Istanbul, Turkey. In 2026, the artist will attend the NARS Foundation Residency in New York City. Oppel is currently a PhD student at the University of Toronto and a Sessional Instructor at OCAD University.

Anouk Verviers is an interdisciplinary artist, performer, and researcher living and working between London UK and Tiohtià:ke/Mooniyang/Montreal. Through embodied, poetic, and collaborative processes, Verviers’ work investigates systems of power through an intersectional feminist lens that acknowledges histories of dispossession. She relies on non-systemic processes - processes that are unstable, adaptable, and open to leave space for experimentation, collaboration, and embodied ways of understanding. She holds a BFA from UQAM (Tiohtià:ke/Mooniyang/Montreal CA 2017), and an MFA from Goldsmiths (London UK 2023). In 2022, she was awarded the Chelsea Arts Club Award (UK); in 2023, the ACME Goldsmiths Award (UK); and in 2024, the Pauline-Desautels Prize (CA). Recent exhibitions and performances include MANIF- The Quebec city Biennale, Québec (2026); MOMENTA Biennale d’art contemporain, Montréal (2025); Art Museum of UofT, Toronto (2025); Terrapolis, Italie (2025); DRAC, Drummondville (2025); Kupfer Gallery, Londres (2024); CIRCA Art Actuel, Montréal (2024) and OPTICA, Montréal (2023). In 2025, she was awarded the PRIM-Dazibao residency and commission.
