About the Participants.

Gaëlle Choisne’s (b. 1985, France) practice addresses issues of disaster, the exploita­tion of resources, and the remains of colo­nialism through dynamic instal­la­tions that mutate their envi­ron­ments. Choisne grad­u­ated from the National School of Fine Arts of Lyon. In January 2017, she was admitted into the Rijksakademie, after a one-year res­i­dency at the Cité inter­na­tionale des arts in Paris. Her work has been fea­tured in bien­nials, group shows and work­shops, such as at the Beirut Art Center for the 13th Sharjah Biennial (2017); MAC Lyon (2016); the Lyon Biennial (2015); and the Musée d’art mod­erne de la Ville de Paris (2018). TEMPLE OF LOVE is her first insti­tu­tional solo show.

Hui Wu is a pianist currently attending the Colburn School.

Dallas Noble is a violinist currently attending the Colburn School.
