Online Residency

Meet Mosaz (Zijun Zhao), a visionary artist whose intricate works bridge the gap between personal memory and collective cultural inheritance. Through delicate linework and symbolic forms, she transforms intimate emotions into universal visual narratives that speak to the complexities of contemporary Asian identity. From her studio practice rooted in Chinese philosophy to international exhibitions spanning Milan to Seoul, Mosaz creates art that feels like pages from a deeply personal diary—yet resonates across cultures and contexts.

In conversation: Mosaz

In this interview, we spoke with Kirsty O'Brien, a contemporary artist from Redcar, Cleveland, whose powerful practice explores the intersection of industrial heritage and environmental consciousness. Working from her hometown in the shadow of former steel works, O'Brien creates experimental paintings that reflect the complex relationship between heavy industry and landscape transformation. Her innovative approach involves combining household paints, varnishes, and unconventional materials to mirror the chemical processes of steelmaking while addressing urgent environmental concerns.

In this conversation, we talked with Maria Belik, whose practice emerges at a crucial intersection of artistic authenticity and social responsibility. Based in London, this international painter and illustrator has developed a distinctive approach that challenges the increasing digitization of contemporary art while maintaining deep engagement with pressing social issues.

In this conversation, Lithuanian artist Džiuginta Mažulytė reveals the profound personal and philosophical foundations that drive her eco-somatic practice, tracing her artistic evolution from her childhood in her parents' post-Soviet photography shop to her current exploration of what theorist Karen Barad terms "intra-action" between humans and the more-than-human world. Through her lens, we encounter an artist who refuses the Western Cartesian separation between self and nature, instead drawing upon both contemporary new materialist theory and ancient Indigenous wisdom to create works that emerge not from staging or direction, but from genuine collaboration with landscape, light, and living systems.

Florestania—a Brazilian Portuguese term that embodies the wisdom of knowing and respecting the forest as the Indigenous do—serves as the guiding spirit for this immersive virtual exhibition. Over six weeks, a collective of artists—Antonia Ablass, Dodd Holsapple, Andjelik, Denise Felber, and Isabella Morales Salis— navigated the realms of more-than-human networks, embracing the fluidity of linear time and weaving together environmental narratives.

We are excited to invite you to a virtual exhibition featuring the artists' works from our September online residency program. Over six weeks, Kenny Ros, Rebecca Odessa, David Bickley and Francesca Busca explored the themes of water, alchemy, and the beauty and history of Madeira Island. Despite being from different backgrounds and working in a range of media, from sculpture, video, painting and photography, the artists found common ground in their fascination with nature's cycles and beauty.

Meet Aqeela Sherazi, a Pakistani artist whose profound understanding of ecological spirituality transforms environmental discourse into deeply contemplative artistic experiences. Working across multiple mediums—from organic pigments and handmade materials to large-scale installations—Aqeela creates immersive environments that invite viewers into sacred dialogue with the natural world. During her April residency, Aqeela developed Garden Within, a monumental 19' x 86' installation that reimagines the garden as both earthly sanctuary and spiritual metaphor. Combining sand, organic pigments, wood, and laser-cut elements with an integrated 7' x 5' fountain, the work creates a living meditation on humanity's interconnectedness with nature. Her accompanying poem of the same title speaks to this vision: "There is a garden hidden deep, / Beyond the noise, beyond the sleep," offering viewers a space where environmental consciousness emerges not through alarm, but through profound serenity.

Meet Bronwen Gwillim, an artist and environmental advocate whose work intimately explores the relationship between local materials and global ecological concerns. Drawing inspiration from her surroundings on the South Pembrokeshire coast in West Wales, Bronwen creates art that addresses the pressing issue of plastic pollution with both urgency and creativity. During her January residency, Bronwen delves into the complexities of waste plastic and its impact on marine environments, while also highlighting the beauty of the natural world. By combining personal experiences with thoughtful commentary on the environment, she invites us to reconsider our connections to place and the materials we use.

Meet Charlotte Mendel, an author, screenwriter, and environmental activist whose work explores the intersection of personal narrative and global crisis. Drawing from her experiences as a traveler, teacher, and parent, she crafts stories that confront the urgent issue of climate change with both anger and hope. During her January residency, Charlotte delves into the inequalities driving environmental destruction, particularly the disproportionate impact of the wealthiest on the planet. By weaving together personal reflections with broader societal critiques, Mendel compels us to examine our roles in the climate crisis and consider the collective action needed to safeguard the future for generations to come.

Meet James Keul, a painter, printmaker, and environmentalist whose work focuses on human resilience and the natural world. He uses classical painting techniques to dramatically convey the current issue of climate change. During his January residency, James delved into how advancements designed to simplify our lives have inadvertently eroded the communal fabric of society. By juxtaposing historical scenes of collective engagement—like bustling marketplaces and shared cinematic experiences—with the isolating effects of modern technology, Keul ask us to reflect on what we've gained and lost in the pursuit of convenience.
