Open to all artistic disciplines—visual arts, music, literature, film, design and architecture, performing arts, and curating—it enables artists to develop their projects in an environment that fosters experimentation and meaningful connections.

Visual arts

Ella Mathys (*1993, Zurich) is an artist and writer based in Zurich. She is interested in everything deemed incidental, intermediate, temporal or marginal, in things overlooked, disregarded or missed. By engaging with the expanding territories of collage – both as process-oriented method and iterative artwork – she explores non-linear ways of storytelling, questioning protocols and forms of narrative in or associated with the West.
