iPO 2026: LABOR-atorium results !

Santiago Colombo Migliorero is an Argentinian visual and multimedia artist based in Madrid.

He investigates the memory of objects, materialities and how they are affected; traces, ghosts, temporality, and the cadences of objects. He explores the confluence between the digital and the non-digital, the haptic materialities of sculptures, mechanical objects and materials, the ethereality of the digital, CGI, and territory.

He has been an artist in residence in spaces such as ACC Galerie [Germany], BilbaoArte Fundazioa [Spain], La Maison des Auteurs [France], Koyne [Helsinki], ARE [B93, Netherlands], CC Recoleta [Arg], Horanggasy Studio [South Korea], INVE [International Experimental Video Platform] [Chile], among others.

He has exhibited his work in spaces such as 01 Gallery [Rotterdam], Centro Conde Duque [Madrid], Museum of Contemporary Art of Bogotá, Círculo de Bellas Artes de Madrid, BAFICI [Arg], Museum of Contemporary Art of Basque Country, Bienal de Arte Joven [Arg], Museum of Contemporary Art of Alicante [Spain], Proyector Festival [Madrid], Paadman [Teheran], Bienal de Imagen en Movimiento [Arg], FIVA [Arg], among others.

Yannis Gkouzoumas is a Greek multimedia artist and researcher based in Brussels.

After completing his Master's degree in Computer Engineering from Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, he moves to Brussels to pursue an MA in Visual Arts from LUCA School of Arts. This crossing leads him to develop a practice that sits at the intersection of new technologies, lens-based media, installation and performance, combining critical theory, hands-on technical experimentation and embodied research. Central to his work is a persistent interest in resistance as a condition against the never-ending demands of technological mediation and capitalist urgency: the movements too swift for algorithms, the dreams that fragment under analysis, the intimacy that defies documentation, the rest that refuses productivity. In this gap between systems and experience, something essential about contemporary alienation becomes visible, and perhaps, contestable.

His work has been shown at La Maison des Arts, LaVallee, Visual Gallery in Brussels, and STUK in Leuven, among others.
