Milena Orlandi is a Brazilian-born, London-based multidisciplinary artist whose practice spans photography, sculpture and floristry. Inspired by still- life traditions, she creates ephemeral staged scenarios using geometry, light, repetition and colour. Her use of photography alongside sculpture highlights the interdependence between art forms and reflects on how human interaction with nature is constructed in contemporary culture. The sculpture, made of steel and galvanised mesh, takes the form of a suspended box revealing red anthurium flowers within—real yet seemingly plastic, their stems piercing through the mesh gaps. It reflects on the contradictions in humanity’s relationship with nature, where power, domestication and alienation converge. Referencing systems of production and consumption, the work critiques how living things become commodities, distancing us from the natural world.

Millie Chen is a visual artist whose practice spans mixed media shaping dialogue through material and form. Working with everyday objects, Chen reconfigures them to uncover hidden meanings and transform the familiar into sites of reflection. Her work explores shifting identity, immigrant trauma and the crises of contemporary life, creating new narratives that question how personal and collective experiences are remembered and reimagined. I Tried But There Is No Door embodies powerlessness, disorientation and the persistence of unresolved effort. An accumulation of door handles stands as a visual echo of repeated attempts, while a conceptual wooden door remains permanently closed. The work becomes a quiet meditation on the paradox of seeking an exit where none exists, tracing the tension between desire and futility, and the ache, absurdity, and unexpected beauty that emerge in the act of trying.

Minglin He is an interactive and multimedia visual artist specialising in video installation, digital art and multi-narrative forms. Her practice explores human psychological states, desire and the hidden realities beneath the surface through art and design. The work explores memory as both a resistance to and entanglement with time and space. The subtle cracks between past and present form the essence of memory, a double movement of dissolution and persistence. In this series, tiles serve as nodes through which memory cracks in space are examined. By dismantling tiles from the objective world and freely reorganising them in the subjective world, new possibilities beyond fixed reality emerge.

Minye Yue is a visual artist whose practice explores the interwoven relationship between humans and nature. Working with fibre, organic forms and ecological materials, Yue creates narratives of regeneration that act as both witness and archive, tracing ecological histories while questioning anthropocentric perspectives. The Spiritualistic Dancing Stem Series takes inspiration from the ways plant stems respond to light and gravity—phototropism and gravitropism. These movements, shaped by internal tension, are translated into sculptural forms that drape, twist and extend into surrounding architecture, creating a subtle psychological unease.
