Eoghan Ryan (b. 1987, Dublin) engages moving image, installation, performance, puppetry, and collage to explore how power circulates socially and through mediated culture. His process involves long periods of editing; documenting a specific person, site, object, or song; and developing fable-like takes on the collective and the personal as institutions. These institutions range from states of being and nation-states to the cultivation of provisional culture, in art as in bacteria.

Chan is a daughter of Chinese-Canadian settler immigrants from British Hong Kong and was born in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada which is situated upon the traditional territories of the Eerie, Neutral, Huron- Wendat, Haudenosaunee and Mississaugas.

Marianne Keating is an Irish artist and researcher based in London. Her practice-based research addresses Irish histories and overlooked histories of the Irish diaspora, particularly the Irish diaspora in Jamaica, which she narratively reconstructs through their visual, material and oral traces, alongside intensive on-site investigation. Through accumulating these disregarded and overlooked traces, she seeks to insert previously-muted or silent voices into the archive and infuse them with presence.

She holds a practice-based PhD in Visual and Material Culture from Kingston University, (London); an MA from the Royal College of Art (London); and a BA from Limerick School of Art and Design, (Ireland).

She has exhibited widely alongside upcoming participation in the 25th Biennale of Sydney in March 2026.

Molla Sagar (born 1975) is a prominent Bangladeshi filmmaker, cinematographer, and artist known for exploring rural life, social justice, and cultural practices. His films are made with a deep respect and empathy for the people he depicts, never allowing them to be depicted in a state of pity. He aims instead to show their resilience in the face of impossible challenges—from the salination of farmland and the consequences of open cast coal mining, to the fight for survival of people living on the bleeding edge of the climate emergency.

Based in Bagerhat, he trained in graphic design at Dhaka University. His films, often focusing on marginalised communities, include O Pakhi (2002), Dudh-Koyla (2006), and The Ilish.

Naeem Mohaiemen’s research-led practice encompasses films, installations, and essays about transnational left politics in the period after the Second World War. He investigates the legacies of decolonisation and the erasing and rewriting of memories of political utopias. Mohaiemen combines autobiography and family history to explore how national borders and passports shape the lives of people in turbulent societies. His work focuses on film archives and the way their contents can be lost, fabricated and reanimated. The hope for an as-yet unborn international left, instead of alliances of race and religion, forms his work.

Solo exhibitions include: Solidarity Must be Defended, Mahmoud Darwish Museum, Ramallah (2017); There is no Last Man, MoMA PS1, New York (2017); Prisoners of Shothik Itihash, Kunsthalle Basel (2014); The Young Man Was, Experimenter, Kolkata (2011); Live True Life or Die Trying, Cue Art Foundation, New York (2009); and My Mobile Weighs a Ton, Gallery Chitrak, Dhaka (2008).

Roy Claire Potter is an artist who performs, publishes and exhibits. Influenced by linguistics and performance theory, they often collaborate with musicians and sound artists for radio broadcast and music festivals. Across the wide range of their work that includes drawing, installation, experimental art writing, vocal performance and moving image, Roy tells stories built from fragmented, intense images that depict moving bodies or domestic scenes and architectural settings.

Roy’s interest in communication constraints, subtext and narrative sequencing is felt in the way they use fast-paced talking or reading speeds and restricted or partial views of space. Complicated social or group dynamics and the aftermath of violent events are common themes in Roy’s work, and are usually treated with a dark, sometimes wilful humour.

They have have recently presented work with Book Works, Serpentine, Bergen Centre for Electronic Arts (2024), PRIMARY (2022/3), BBC Radio 3 (2020), Tate Britain and Tate Publishing (2019). Roy has published two chapbooks of experimental art writing, Round That Way (Ma Bibliotheque, 2017) and Mental Furniture (VerySmallKitchen 2014) and recently a novella, The Wastes (Book Works, 2024) commissioned by artist Katrina Palmer for Arrhythmia, a series of artist books that explore ideas of being out of joint with the predominant social order. Shorter works are published by Dostoyevsky Wannabe, Hotel Partisan, Tate Publishing, and CCA Derry-Londonderry.
