Piotr Krzymowski
Piotr Krzymowski is an artist born in Poland, currently based in London. Who graduated from Central Saint Martins in 2012.
'I’m particularly interested in the “blind date” aspect of the residency set up. I would like to use the opportunity to collaborate with an unknown artist/ group of artists that I otherwise wouldn’t have a chance to work with. I would like to get to know their practice in an online environment, which will enable both sides to share videos, links, texts, screenshots, images that relate to each others’ practices. I envision the outcome of this non-verbal communication to take the form of a stream of data. '

Pippa Eason
Pippa Eason is an artist based in Leeds, who exhibits around the UK working both digitally and in physical sculpture.
'I plan to use my time to create an archive of material related to the idea of online gesture vs the offline art practice. I will be researching the idea of ephemera online, and particularly how myself and the other person will correspond. I have a fondness for mixing an old classical aesthetic with new media, so will research classical gesture to collage it with new ideas. I hope to write poetry in response to the interaction with the other person, and perhaps even some sculpture, all of which I will include in the doc. '

Peter Slania
Peter Slania is an artist based in London.
'My practice navigates around the complexity of power, be it physical, mystical or social. To fantasise of power, to possess power, to utilise it or to abrogate another’s; I conduct performative and image based research, seeking the form in which true power may or may not be encountered: from a progressively less figurative rebellion against the institution of the Catholic Church or cynical humour manifested as a quest to elevate the self to Godhood out of the need for deification,'
