Edith van den Elzen is a video artist who finds inspiration and material in nature, from close-ups of small details to wide landscapes. She often works in collectives, collaborating with musicians, performers and other visual artists, where improvisation plays an important role, using spatial objects or creating this three-dimensional effect with projections. She also documents creative theatre processes or workshops with a calm and observing eye, using music and soundscapes captured in the moment and finding the story through images rather than textual explanation. Edith studied film and video art at the art academy, where she also experimented with painting, photography and conceptual art. Recently she has been connecting performance more with the creative process. 

Julia Panzer is a versatile cellist who is always on the lookout for new expressive and tonal possibilities for her instrument. During her studies in Leipzig, she deepened her passion for cross-genre music-making by founding the neoclassical “mondëna quartet”, in which she collaborated with exciting artists such as Sven Helbig, Felix Meyer, Felix Rösch etc. In December 2022, the first quartet album “Circles” was released, which was nominated four times for the Opus Klassik. Classical orchestral music also plays a major role in Julia’s life: she has already played in the MDR and hr symphony orchestras and at the Staatstheater Darmstadt and is a committed member of the Junge Deutsche Philharmonie. With her Loop-Station and her solo project “Repetition”, she creates transcendent meditative moments and subtly moves between ambient, minimal music, folk and classical music.
