Fresh Milk | Kia Redman

Kia Redman is a Barbados-based creative professional. She works as a camera operator at Bajans in Motion and a videographer for Acute Vision Inc.

Laced with a deceptively probing levity, Kia’s work unveils alternative perspectives on culture and belonging.

La bonne | Anna Carreras

I am a creative coder and digital artist based in Barcelona. I focus my practice and research on code, generative systems and interaction. I am interested on complexity that emerges from small simple behaviors or from the balance between order and chaos. I try to capture the diversity and richness of complexity working with generative algorithms and visuals. My interest lies in using generative graphics and interaction as a communicative instrument. They are a mean of creating new experiences and narrative proposals. Merging art and technology I create installations and pieces that invite participation, exploration and some reflection.
