Rita Borralho Silva (b.2000, Lisbon) is an Amsterdam-based performance artist, exploring the tension between tradition and transformation.

Raised in post-revolutionary Portugal, her work channels political urgency with the body as resistance.

amateur dancer who loves chanting and storytelling, Rita brings an inherently personal and embodied urgency to her practice:

“I am Body. Poetic, political and always, feminist”

Dolores Mallea runs a small practice based in Buenos Aires called SUR DEL CRUZ. 

Born from the desire to be able to build what they were designing, it is a continuous personal search between profession and craft, which counts on the accompanying team, collaborations from colleague studios, and constant training.

The studio is strongly influenced by the shared history of southern America as a plurinational region, as well as in the intuitive construction of everyday domestic and work furniture and its particular aesthetics.

Loli is also part of Taller 475, a woodshop located in a local penitentiary for young men.

Adriana Jaroslavsky is an artist from Caracas, Venezuela with a fresh MA in Sculpture at the Royal College of Art. Adriana works closely with installation, and materials in tension, things that breathe, resist, sag, or hover. Her practice moves through the spaces between structure and softness, logic and dream, the seen and the felt. She is drawn to failed systems, ghost architectures, and internal landscapes that never fully settle.

Process is a collaborator: Adriana listens to the materials, let them misbehave, shift, and reveal.

Her work often lives in a suspended state, unfinished, ambiguous, gently alert. I’m interested in that shimmer just after waking, when everything is familiar but strange. A moment held, not named.
