Artists in residence

Gala Hernández López was born in 1993 in Spain. She lives and works in Berlin.

Her interdisciplinary practice merges filmmaking with video installations, performances, and publications. She explores how computational capitalism reshapes subjectivity, examining virtual imaginaries, techno-utopian narratives, and the fantasies of control they generate. Grounded in research, her work blends materialist critique with poetry and intimacy. Gala Hernández López’s work has been presented in numerous institutions and festivals, including Cannes Film Festival (Quinzaine des Cinéastes), France (2025), Cinéma du Réel, France (2024), Palais de Tokyo, France (2024), Berlinale, Germany (2023) or DOK Leipzig, Germany (2022).

Wendy Therméa is a visual artist who lives and works on Reunion Island. She obtained her DNSEP (National Higher Diploma of Plastic Expression) at the Reunion Art School in 2022 with the congratulations of the jury, and immediately took part in the group exhibition of new graduates at Kab’Art Saint-Leu, entitled Le temps est un Je. In 2023, she continued her artistic career with a two-month residency at the Cité des Arts on Reunion Island. Recently, the Alliance française and the Institut français invited her to a month-long residency entitled Traveling Plant in India. This residency paved the way for several exhibitions to be held in various Indian cities and Sri Lanka.

Born in the highlands of Reunion Island, Wendy THERMÉA spent her childhood surrounded by nature, in a symphony of land and water landscapes. Her childhood, immersed in this natural diversity, inspired an artistic quest to establish a dialogue between the landscape and her own body. Through her works, she explores the delicate and often invisible links we weave with our environment. Her art, imbued with metaphors and poetry, draws from her personal history, the cycle of life, and the perpetual movements of nature.

Wendy specialises mainly in video, creating immersive installations that offer a complete sensory experience, combining auditory, olfactory, and visual elements. Increasingly attracted to installation art, her works become poetic spaces where nature and humanity meet, offering a subtle and sensitive reflection on our relationship with the world around us. Through her creations, she aims to awaken heightened awareness of the beauty and fragility of our environment, celebrating harmony and the interconnectedness of all things.
