Teng-Yuan Chang
In Teng-Yuan Chang’s work, the parrot men from a remote edge of galaxy, have traveled to Earth and speculated on the possible state of the planet in a thousand years. Chang wants to engage our imaginations in the possibilities set forth in seeing from the parrot men’s prospective.

Jacob Kirkegaard
Jacob Kirkegaard’s work derives from unaudible or unheard acoustic phenomena. With sensors and recording methods, the material is unfolded into compositions, sound works or visual, spatial installations. Kirkegaard has explored sonic environments such as subterranean geyser vibrations, empty rooms in Chernobyl, a rotating TV tower, Arctic hydrosonic calving glaciers and even tones generated by the human inner ear itself. Kirkegaard listens behind the immediate and challenges our perception and the world around us.
Currently based in New York, Jacob Kirkegaard is a graduate of the Academy for Media Arts in Cologne. Since 1995, he has presented his works at galleries, museums, venues and conferences throughout the world including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; LOUISIANA Humlebæk, Denmark; KW, Berlin; The Menil Collectio and the Rothko Chapel, Houston and at the Aichi Triennale. His sound works have been released by labels including Touch, Important Records and Posh Isolation.
