Étienne Chambaud Work from his oeuvre. “CHAMBAUD’s work never functions in isolation but finds its sense or its interest in a permanent dialogue with other works.

Charles Benton Work from his oeuvre. Below is an interview with HUH Magazine. “…You do a lot of installation work as well as photography, installation work is often conceptual while photographers are often formalistic.

Jasper Elings Work from his oeuvre. “…With sources originating from digital readymades or appropriated video, each artist modifies, redirects and redistributes the footage using a wide array of alterations, from simple editing to more detailed and complex reconstructions.
