Gyun hur
Gyun Hur is an interdisciplinary artist and an educator whose experience as an immigrant daughter deeply fuels her practice. Gyun’s work has been widely recognized for her floor installations comprising of hand-shredded silk flowers. Through her menial process of making and transforming materials, the artist constructs a visual landscape to evoke a sense of melancholia and diasporic narratives in loss and beauty.
Gyun has recently contributed as an artist-writer in fLoromancy Issue 36, The Brooklyn Rail, and The Forgetory.
Born in South Korea, she moved to Georgia at the age of 13. She currently lives in Brooklyn and teaches at Parsons School of Design, The New School.

Louise tate
Louise Tate is a painter and writer based in Melbourne/Naarm, Australia. Her practice explores themes of care, fictional post-climate landscapes, and gentle modes of co-existing with the natural environment. Her work is figurative and self-referential, imagining utopian worlds where Australian flora flourishes and human bodies appear to float fleetingly through the landscape.
Louise has exhibited her work in Australia, the USA, and the Netherlands. Her paintings have recently been shortlisted for the Brett Whitely Travelling Art Scholarship (AUS), the Doug Moran National Portrait Prize (AUS), the ‘churchie’ national emerging art prize (AUS) and the Hopper Prize (USA).
