Ferdinand Dölberg, born in 1998 in Eisenach, Germany, studied fine art at the Berlin University of the Arts (UdK) under Prof. Thomas Zipp until 2024. Dölberg’s works explore questions regarding his own position within social structures, interpersonal relationships, and individuality. Fictional figures, mask-like faces, and absurd body forms, as well as shifting gender identities, are the main themes of his paintings and drawings.

In her work, Sarah Neumann (Germany, 1996) explores the human body as a psychological and philosophical space rather than a purely biological form. Neumann is interested in where bodily boundaries lie and at what point they shift into something animalistic, demonic, or unfamiliar. She works with various media, including painting, drawing, and sculpture. Her works move between figuration and abstraction, operating within the realm of dream, memory, and subconscious perception. Bodies, landscapes, and ambiguous forms appear only to fragment or dissolve again, hovering between recognition and uncertainty. Tenderness and unease coexist in fragile, hazy spaces.
