There are of course many overlapping interests amongst the group, be it content that is often reflective of this moment — the systems and institutions that shape our society and reinforce inequity, identity position and personal history, environmental precarity, and the relationship between humans and the non-human natural world, or disorienting and uncanny investigations of architecture and private space — or formal inquiries into abstraction, materials, and artistic histories, amongst many myriad and overlapping others.
