ED ATKINS (1982) is an English video artist specialised in animation and computer generated images. Within his work, he explores themes such as intimacy, loneliness, death, and love in the digital era. Though he defines his characters as "born dead", I believe he pushes the narrative of his animation pieces to the point of creating a new melancholic physicality. His imagery is principally populated by grotesque caricatures of male individuals who seem to drown in an alienating world or, at times, to float on the top of it. Literature, especially poetry, constitutes an important influence on his creative process and a substantial part of his art production. In fact, he usually writes the text of his videos himself.
I had the chance of visiting his personal exhibition at Castello di Rivoli, Torino (Italy) in 2017 when he took over an entire floor of the castle. I remember being struck by the surgical attention to the aspect of the sound which englobed me in a silly, dull, and estranging enlarged video installation. He also participated at the Venice Biennale in 2019 with a video installation called Old Food (2017-2019) and a series of drawings titled Bloom.

PIPILOTTI RIST (1962) is a visual Swiss artist famous for her spatial approach to video art. Her work is usually displayed in holistic video installations that aim to establish a physical tension with the viewer. She has an interesting political view of colour and technology; as the world of the digital comes from a machine-generating process, it is likely to be judged as cold, as if it had neither body nor spirit. On the contrary, Pipilotti Rist believes that the machines we use to generate the same digital images are the statements of the people who created them, therefore they're everything but soul-less. The world she depicts is mostly female and charged with colour, which is also explored in a political sense.

Moyra Davey

photographer, writer, and filmmaker. b.1958

Her book of essays:

https://www.amazon.com/Index-Cards-Selected-Moyra-Davey/dp/0811229513

In these essays, the artist, photographer, writer, and filmmaker Moyra Davey often begins with a daily encounter―with a photograph, a memory, or a passage from a book―and links that subject to others, drawing fascinating and unlikely connections, until you can almost feel the texture of her thinking. While thinking and writing, she weaves together disparate writers and artists―Mary Wollstonecraft, Jean Genet, Virginia Woolf, Janet Malcolm, Chantal Akerman, and Roland Barthes, among many others―in a way that is both elliptical and direct, clearheaded and personal, prismatic and self-examining, layering narratives to reveal the thorny but nourishing relationship between art and life.
