Artists

!Mediengruppe Bitnik are contemporary artists working on and with the internet. Their practice extends from the digital to physical spaces, often intentionally creating loss of control to challenge established structures and mechanisms. They have been known to hack surveillance cameras, bug an opera house to broadcast performances to people's homes, physically glitch buildings and send a bot on a three-month shopping spree on the darknet. !Mediengruppe Bitnik have received awards such as the Swiss Art Award, the PAX Art Award and the Golden Cube from Dokfest Kassel.

Selena Savić is an artist, architect and assistant professor at the University of Amsterdam. Born in Belgrade, she currently lives and works between Lausanne and Amsterdam. Her work explores critical and creative approaches to data at the intersection of information processes and postcolonial technocracy. She researches, teaches and writes about digital archives, computational modeling, feminist materialism and posthuman networks in the context of art, design and architecture. Her publications include the books "Radio Explorations" (2024), "Teaching Artistic Strategies" (2024) and, together with Gordan Savičić, "Unpleasant Design" (2013).

Gordan Savičić is an artist and critical engineer whose work explores the intersections of digital culture, data and society. Through his artistic research, he makes invisible infrastructures visible and questions the role of technology in our everyday lives.

He was born in Vienna and currently teaches media art and design in Lucerne.

Ingrid Hideki is a multidisciplinary artist based in Berlin, originally from Crete, Greece. At the core of Ingrids´ artistic practice lies a fusion of visuals, sounds, music and performative elements. In her current work she addresses issues regarding queerness and fem liberation extrapolating both in the physical and digital realm. Her visual is also a medium she uses to convey her message. Her aesthetic varies by style, focusing on a postmodern and graphic appearance with structural sharp lines and bold colorstories. Ingrid has performed in many venues around Europe, starting drag in Heraklion in 2018 and moving to Germany in late 2022. From venues in Heraklion, Athens, Thessaloniki, Karlsruhe, Heidelberg and Berlin to name a few, she also performed at big pride events like the Opening Ceremony of Europride 2024 in Thessaloniki.

Caesaria Mastropos is equally at home on the streets and in the salons. She enjoys not taking things too seriously, makes use of sarcasm and self-irony, cleans the house to folk songs and sings whatever comes into her head. She draws strength and inspiration from everything feminine on this planet and can't understand that they should always be considered inferior because of the patriarchy. That is why she is usually on stage - to show how free she feels: as a person who is filled with femininity and lives it out in all its fullness.

Vallien landed on Earth on a random day with her spaceship. They don't understand people and their strange social constructs and believe that gender is a comet traveling through infinity.
