Roy Andres Hofer (CH)
Roy Andres Hofer is showing his recent works from the beach series. As a regular guest with a-space artist run gallery at Hybrid Art Fair Roy is an organizer of his gallery project a-space but this year he is an artist member of Jasmin Glaab‘s kunsthallekleinbasel. Jasmin and Roy are both, artists and organizers with a passionate heart for art. Sometimes the roles are changed and one of the both is doing the opposite.
For the 2019 Hybrid edition Roy selected photos of his recent work „THE BEACH“ which started in Sardinia 2018. The series talks about economic cycles. Hofer takes photos of people selling goods on the beach. As an artist he puts these photographies into another economic cycle trying to sell them on an art fair. Together with the photographs he exhibits two inflatable animals – a big killer whale and a very small dolphin.

Naomi Middelmann (CH)
Naomi’s work explores the subjectivity of memory and how it changes depending on the context. She is interested in how an artwork can change depending on its context. She assembles and disassembles her work as an expression of the disparate nature of what we remember or think we remember, our identity and the societal roles we play. As Oliver Sacks, the famous Neursurgeon wrote, We now know that memories are not xed or frozen, like Proust’s jars of preserves in a larder, but are transformed, disassembled, reassem-bled, and recategorized with every act of recollection.
Her interest in the ambiguity of perception and in what we think we know, as well as in how artists can contribute to scienti c study on perception and understanding the creative process have led her to actively collaborate with various leading neuroscientists at top universities in the USA, Germany and Switzerland. She has also been invited to give public lectures and participated in academic study days at museums, galleries as well as at academic institutions on the subject of perception, her artistic research and the place of art and artists in society today.
Born in Switzerland, she moved to New York when she was 16. A er earning a degree in Creative writing and International Relations from Johns Hopkins University (with a 4 year scholarship for Outstanding Academic achievement), she started a publishing house with a friend in New York. A er returning to Switzerland she earned a postgraduate degree in the visual arts from the Visu- al Art School in Basel in 2009. Since then she has exhibited in over 40 shows in Switzerland, Europe and the US. Her work is in major private and public collections.

Mirjam Spoolder (CH)Mirjam Spoolders diverse experiences in fashion, art and theatre, play an important role in her work. The multifaceted approach of Mirjam Spoolder takes a charged, metamorphic and interdisciplinary shape. Spoolder is interested in the way we communicate through clothes, how we deal with fashion and how we respond to it. In her artistic work, she questions the cultural-political dimension of fashion. Fashion as a belief is manifested through clothing.
Mirjam Spoolder uses her woven pictures to identify cultural interfaces between fashion and art. For years, the manual collage technique and the confrontation with the fashion magazines has played an important role in her work. In this series, the visual artist merges two identical fashion images by cutting them into thin stripes of paper, creating a virtually unidentifiable new composition of the images. The otherwise always perceptible perfectionism of the fashion world is here not only abstracted but much more deliberately deconstructed by the old artisanal textile technology. Each square reminds the viewer of the pixels of the early digital world and exposes the use of digital manipulation in the fashion world itself. Text: Ana Vujic |
Ana Vujić (CH)
The Swiss-Serbian artist and art critics Ana Vujić (*1981 in Pozarevac, SRB) lives and works in Basel (CH). Since 2011 she exhibits regularly in Switzerlandand abroad. Ana Vujić studied art history and works as a teacher in this eld (main focus: Urban Art). In 2017 she founded Voltage, a combination of artiststudios and exhibition space in Basel.
Ana Vujić has long been re ecting on social criticism and scru- tinising media representation of socio-economic realities and con icts. Preferably, she goes about this artistically with found material and coarse instruments, in this particular case working on especially large formats and in contrasts of black and white.
Ana Vujić is moving in her artistic work in di erent areas. She is active in urban space with a personal language by placing images realized with ink on paper in public places. She is also at home in more traditional areas due to her art historical studies. She deals with old techniques like etching, screen printing or the produc- tion of artist‘s books. e newly released lm >Ephemere< shows her urban actions from 2018 in East Germany.
