Marlene LahmerI am mainly but not exclusively interested in the aesthetic and physical qualities of glass, in the visual and auditory spaces that can be found for texts, and in trailing concepts from cultural theory and linguistics. My artististic work includes sculptures, multi-media installations and text performances. Material-based, literary and theory-informed approaches overlap translucently, incongruently and sometimes complementarily.

Paulina SemkowiczPaulina Semkowicz , born in 1980, Kraków, Poland is currently based in Vienna. She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków where she studied painting (Diploma with Distinction, 2006) and scenography (Postgraduate degree, 2013). In 2005 she was granted a scholarship at Faculdade de Belas Artes, Universidade do Porto, Portugal. She took part in many international projects and besides her own practice she has made several collaborations with other artists. Her work has been exhibited among various art spaces in Vienna and other European cities. Since 2019 she has been working with gallery She BAM! in Leipzig, Germany. Her practice approaches different artistic domains such as painting, installation and set design as she is deeply influenced by theatre´s scenery, a milieu in which she has evolved as a scenography painter for a couple of years.
