Dani Song is a New York–based interdisciplinary artist whose practice explores cultural identity, belonging, and the evolution of visual languages across generations. Born in Seoul and immigrating to the U.S. as a teenager, she centers her work on uncovering shared rituals, materials, and forms of making to bridge cultural, political, and social divides.

Makoto Kishino is a painter and architectural designer born in Tokyo. He trained in architecture at the Architectural Association in London and worked as a studio assistant to Takashi Murakami, among other artists, before settling in New York, where he works on public architecture projects for the city.
