Dr. Anne Robinson is an artist, curator, and lecturer. Her multidisciplinary practice is concerned with the perception and politics of time passing. She holds a practice-led PhD in Fine Art and has shown work nationally and internationally; curated projects including Time, Flesh and Nerve, One More Time, Supernormal festival and Over Time. She has published in The Journal of Visual Arts Practice, The Journal of Media Practice, The Journal of Contemporary Painting, and is the author of the book See Red: Feminist Posters, 1974-1990.

Amélie Ducommun is a French-Swiss artist, working and residing in Barcelona. Her striking paintings attempt to harness both the beauty and energy of natural landscapes. A seasoned traveler, the artist draws her creative inspiration from discovering new panoramas and exploring unfamiliar geographies. Much of her work focuses on the temporality and subjectivity of memory, foregrounding questions of perception and emotion, as well as the interrelation between natural elements. For Ducommun, truth can be found in first impressions, the fleeting moment when unfamiliarity compels a focus on emotional candor and unbiased observation.
