Theo Pelmus is a performance artist. Pelmus describes his practice as "creating elaborate worlds through shadow play of performative objects and video-projections. Similar to a live VJ-ing using objects, video and sound to create one single video image through performance."

Kris Snowbird is a performance artist and filmmaker of Cree/Ojibwe descent. Snowbird articulates "my process of work can be described as a continuous questioning and understanding of the way in which my tradition as a First Nation woman influences the way I conceptualize art. One pivotal aspect of the work I am creating is the traditional labor of beading and how it can be applied to different mediums of art. I am researching these approaches though film, photography, and performance. I am interested in art as a process of making a difference in the understanding of the culture I come from, with its stories, traditions, and the historical and personal trauma."
