About the Program
What develops when artists inhabit the space between established strategies and emerging technologies?
Artistic practice increasingly operates between states—analog and digital, handmade and algorithmic, physical and virtual. IN FLUX, a series of artist-driven online discussions, screenings, studio visits, and live performance, explores approaches to navigating a layered reality shaped by traditional forms and evolving technologies.
Drawing on Donna Haraway's ideas of hybridity and the crossing of boundaries, the series considers artists who neither reject digital advancement nor embrace a technological utopia. Instead, their practices focus on the process of translation across forms, attending to what is lost in the shift and what new possibilities emerge.
Through sculpture, video, performance, and image-making, six artists interrogate boundaries, explore transitions, and embody hybrid forms across mediums, identities, and systems of knowledge.
Nature — Boundary
November 5, 2026 | Panel Conversation
Carla Fisher Schwartz and Anja Ulfeldt
Moderated by Julianna Heller and Chance Cutrano
Artists Carla Fisher Schwartz and Anja Ulfeldt discuss how natural landscapes are translated between physical environments and digital spaces. Grounded in the Bay Area's ecological context, the conversation considers how technologies such as mapping and 3D scanning intersect with lived environmental conditions, impacts, and responsibilities.
Image — Body
November 12, 2026 | Screening and Conversation
Omolola Ajao and Zahra Babaei
Moderated by Julianna Heller
Examining tensions between identity and representation, body and surface, and lived experience and performance, this conversation brings together Omolola Ajao and Zahra Babaei. Through video, performance, and image-making, the artists consider how bodies are translated into images and mediated through screens, revealing what is altered, obscured, or amplified in the process.
Offcut — Origin
December 3, 2026 | Studio Visit
jinseok choi
Artist jinseok choi invites viewers into his studio practice, exploring the negotiation between disparate mediums and the reworking of traditional forms into hybridized works. Through a conversation centered on process and making, the visit examines questions of labor, authorship, and cultural identity as they are transformed through materials and artistic production.
Message — Form
December 7–11, 2026 | Five-Day Livestream Performance & Discussion
Germán Benincore
Over five consecutive days, Germán Benincore performs MEDIUM, a site-responsive performative drawing score in which chance-based digital inputs are interpreted through the artist's hand. Broadcast live during working hours, the performance explores the impact of medium on meaning, translation as a mode of making, and the artist's role as intermediary between different ways of knowing.
