Hermann Grüneberg
The adult figures in Grüneberg’s ceramics bear traces of actions and interventions. Their origins and journeys remain an expressive mystery. Experience has accumulated within them, deepening their faces and inevitably aging them. A sense of calm has returned to their postures. History, too, has settled on them like the heavy dust of the road, religions, myths, generations, and epochs layered upon their surfaces. Other elements drift among them: hoods and crowns, third parties or their images, a strange murmur, and laughter echoing from the plates.
Hermann Grüneberg has exhibited work at SPAX Projects, Paris; Brutto Gusto, Berlin; and Galerie Herold, Hamburg, among others.

Cassie Augusta Jørgensen
Cassie Augusta Jørgensen primarily works with performance, coming from a background in dance and choreography. She has experience both in live stage work and in gallery settings. More recently, she has also created film and photography, always approached through a choreographic lens. Politically and theoretically, her focus is on the choreography of the trans body, exploring the spaces in history where it appears and where it is absent. In her work, she seeks to highlight this either by rewriting these narratives or by emphasizing what already exists.
Cassie Augusta Jørgensen has exhibited work at Overgaden; inter.pblc; and Nikolaj Kunsthal; all in Copenhagen, among others.
