Lawil Karama (she/her) is a Ugandan-Dutch conceptual artist born in former West Berlin and based in Amsterdam. Her work is deeply rooted in the diasporic experience, often drawing from her family history as a starting point for challenging conventional narratives and amplifying unheard voices. Karama's creative path began in the world of special make-up effects, which continues to influence her approach, bringing a visceral understanding of form, surface, and psychological tension into her current work.
Edward Akintola Hubbard (he/him) is a Rotterdam-based artist and educator whose practice is experimental ethnography. Combining research methods from across anthropology, art theory, cinema, media studies, gender studies, urban studies, gothic studies and African diaspora studies, his work takes form through photography, video, installation, and curation. As artistic director of the DARKMATTER Collective, Hubbard is invested in creating spaces where the invisible can be made visible.
