Carl Palm (b. 1980) is an artist based in Stockholm. He builds hybrid discourses generated form conversations between objects of plural nature. The concept of “mixed media” finds here a clearer sense through his approach to objects: it considers relations of resemblance and contrast inside the exhibition room, the changing significance of the goods through changes and displacement, and the sculpture´s own memory. Not that far from animism, Palm approaches a wide sculptural practice from a post-curatorial behaviour, researching the inner capacity of the objects to interact inside the white-cube, being specially sensitive to their previous story outside the museum.

His recent and upcoming exhibitions include: Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana (GR) Pan Per i Poveri (IT) GL Strand (DK), Overgaden (DK), Parallel Oaxaca (MX) Kunsthalle Athena (GR), MACBA (ES), TOVES (DE), Kunsthalle Wien (AU), CAC (LT), Center (D), ARTIUM (ES), Nosbaum Reding (LU), Komplot (BE) Index – The Swedish Contemporary Art Foundation (SE) and IASPIS at the 12th Istanbul Biennale (TR).

Sebastian Rozenberg (b. 1985, Lund, Sweden) is an artist based in Stockholm. In much of Rozenberg’s production the actual work is a text or a performance, and the sculptural objects or installations are outcomes or props. Both in intent and product, his work displays an awareness of the act of writing and of its points of fission, as well as an awareness of lack or complication as a productive mode. This includes objects that seem to dance away from and negate the textual. Recent shows and exhibitions include Guest Projects London, Life Sport Athens, MACBA Barcelona, Toves Copenhagen, IAC Malmö, Bar Grraowl; Venice-Basel-Berlin.
