T-Yong Chung (Tae-gu, South Korea, 1977) lives and works in Milan. Classicism, Arte Povera and minimalism are three elements that keep returning in his sculptural and installation work, where the tension between the fullness of Western culture and the essentiality of Eastern culture create a full formal balance. The artist uses waste materials, such as antique chairs, rusty tools and pieces of sheet metal, that he dismantles and reassembles, smooths and polishes, giving them a new identity, with a permanent link to the dignity of their past. He is famous for his sculptures depicting human faces, made of plaster, ceramics, resin, wax and bronze. He draws inspiration from Greek and Roman classicism, but also from contemporary figures of European culture, that are relevant in his day-to-day life. His sculpture busts are characterized by a clean cut that is handmade and then refined and this creates an abstraction and they evoke an idea of absence, an uninterrupted presence. Through this process of subtraction and cancellation- gestures that evoke generative acts in the eastern culture- the artworks reveal their essence in the research of different perspectives, different spaces, different identities.
T-Yong Chung graduated in Environmental Sculpture at the University of Seoul and then he graduated in Sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera. From 2007 to today his works have been presented in different personal exhibitions in Florence, Bologna, Milan and Naples and in collective exhibitions in important spaces such as Careof, Milan; Galleria Comunale d’Arte Contemporanea of Monfalcone; Galleria Civica d’Arte Contemporanea in Trento, Neon/fdv, Milan and Bologna, but also in Tokyo and Seoul. He took part in many artistic residency and workshops such as Museo Carlo Zauli in Faenza and Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa in Venice.

Andrea Martinucci (Rome, 1991) is a visual artist who lives and works between Milan and Rome. He works across painting, writing and moving images. His artistic process takes place through assemblages and overlaps across diversified contents. By composing images through modification, fragmentation and hybridisation, the artist elaborates metaphorical nonlinear narratives. His works employ humor, absurdity and poetry to explore themes such as memory loss (whether real or surrogate), experiences and sublimation processes, in order to hypothesize other consciences. His observation of reality translates into the rethinking of everyday objects emptied of their daily value, as ruins expelled from a society speeding towards its own collapse. He then processes these unconscious contents that are able to welcome the mysterious reminiscences to Unknown Universes, ultimately letting viewers decipher the resulting multitude of symbols for themselves.
His work has been exhibited in institutional and experimental spaces such as Institut Français – Palazzo delle Stelline (Milan IT, 2016); IIC Los Angeles (Los Angeles USA, 2022); Mattatoio (Rome IT, 2016); Palazzo Reale (Milan IT, 2019); Tang Contemporary Art (Hong Kong CN, 2020); FuturDome (Milan IT, 2017); Palazzo delle Esposizioni (Rome IT, 2012); IUNO (Rome IT, 2022); VUNU Gallery (Kosice SK, 2020); ZETA Contemporary Art Center (Tirana AL, 2021); Museum of Contemporary Art of Villa Croce (Genoa IT, 2012); Museum of Art and Archaeology of Maremma (Grosseto IT, 2017); Fondazione Pastificio Cerere (Rome IT, 2012) and In De Ruimte Space (Gent BE, 2019).
In 2020 he was among the winners of Cantica21. Italian Contemporary Art Everywhere (supported by Directorate General for Contemporary Creativity by the Italian Ministry of Culture and by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs), with Turbomondi (Melodia), a video installation destined for the Public Collection of Istituto Centrale per la Grafica, Rome, IT. He took part in several projects, among which: Tonight we are young – New Italian Art, Triennale (Milan IT, 2022); Fenomeno Pasquarosa, La Fondazione – Nicola Del Roscio Foundation (Rome IT, 2020); MANIFesta – Iniziative di II, MACRO – Museum of Contemporary Art of Rome (Rome IT, 2021), Rereading the Archive, ICA Foundation (Milan, IT 2022) and SPRINT, O’ Space (Milan IT, 2017).

Florian Roithmayr (Germany, 1976) works with sculpture to generate and trace material transformations in the processes of making. The ambition in his work is to register the consequences of one surface or material yielding another through capturing the unexpected gestures that occur in the gap between mould and cast.
His work has been presented in numerous solo shows across galleries and institutions including The Museum of Classical Archaeology, Cambridge (2018); Bloomberg Space, London (2017); Camden Arts Centre, London (2015); MOT International, Brussels (2015); Site Gallery, Sheffield (2014); Treignac Project, Treignac, France (2013); Rowing Projects, London (2013). He also participated in several other exhibitions at Saatchi Gallery, London (2018); German Embassy, London (2017); CCA Derry/Londonderry, Northern Ireland (2016); Royal Academy of Art, London (2016); British School in Rome (2015); Wysing Art Center, Cambridge (2014); Zabludowicz Collection, London (2012), Galleria d’Arte Moderna, Turin (2009).
