David Mathúna

David Mathúna (b. 1991, Cork, IE) is a multidisciplinary artist currently living and working in Berlin (DE). Exploring generative and improvised processes, David’s practice spans video, photo-manipulation, sound design, illustration, data visualisation and performance, with a specific focus on installation.

His primary conceptual inquiries explore the oscillatory relationships between the individual and the collective, between an inner sense of self and a performed social identity, foregrounding the role of the artwork as a point of departure for dialectic engagement.

Cailean Finn

Cailean Finn is a creative tecologist and new media artist based in Waterford, Ireland. In his work Cailean explores digital systems, and their underlying structure. In this approach, he attempts to reveal and provide insight into how contemporary technologies that shape our environment function. Currently, Cailean’s practice is focused around exploring artificial intelligence, machine learning and computer vision algorithms. Through these tools, he hopes to reflect on the relationship we have formed with machines, and how it can be (re) defined moving forward. In doing so, Cailean searches for new modalities of collaboration with machines, which is underpinned by the evolutionary processes we share.
