Barbara Amalie Skovmand Thomsen<\/strong> born in Denmark 1980.
\nStudied at the Danish Design School, Copenhagen DK: BA textile\/ digital design
\nGerrit Rietveld Academie, Amsterdam NL: BA audiovisual
\nSandberg Institute, Amsterdam NL: MA fine arts<\/p>\n

Barbara makes installations and works with video, film, photography and
\nsculpture\u00c2\u0085above all the atmosphere is important, the atmosphere is
\nher medium. A common manoeuvre in her practice is to crystallize and
\namplify a substance, and fuse it with something else. She has a
\nspectrum of reoccurring substances such as jelly, salt, sugar, honey,
\nglue and blue tones of light. Another element is the presence of
\nmovement, directly as in the notion of a vibrating world (which is the
\ncase in several of her projects inhabited by shaky jelly mountains).
\nUsually it’s all about love – presence and togetherness, in relation
\nto nature and you and me.<\/p>\n

Julia Martin<\/strong> born 1976, lives and works in Berlin, Germany.
\nDipl.-Ing. Landscape Architecture, Technical University Berlin, Germany; Master of Fine Art, Edinburgh College of Art, Scotland; PhD in Art Practice candidate, Goldsmiths College, London, UK.<\/p>\n

Julia’s practice includes video, performance, installation, collage and writing. In current projects she is exploring the possibilities and problems of ecocritical art today, testing concepts of a renewed understanding of (political) ecology through the hyperextension of objects. Hyperextension constitutes for her a process of investigative and personal engagement with an object of interest and concern, and with its wanted and unwanted ecological, social, material and political agencies. It is a process that aims to make the internal contradictions and ambiguities within objects experiential and non-linear – contradictions hidden and revealed by the ideologies and concerns we have about objects, and by the imagination and observation of their assumed and actual agencies, their means and ends. Hyperextension complicates, overstretches, dissolves, reconfigures, and perhaps ecologizes both objects and subjects, highlighting the possibility and necessity of constant negotiation, effect\/affect, and decision making in a political ecology.
\nWhile in Iceland, Julia is working on the hyperextension of the K\u00c3\u00a1rahnj\u00c3\u00bakar dam, its attached infrastructures, the project history and its current (eco)political effects, using various research and documentary methods, and responding through context- and site-specific performative actions.<\/p>\n
