Selected Artists

Giulia Vigna is an artist and graphic designer based in Rome. She studied fashion and art history. Her research explores the intersection of ecology and participatory practices, examining the relationships between capitalism, feminism, and systems of exploitation. She frequently works with the reuse of materials, texts, and images as practices of re-signification and appropriation, contributing to the construction of collective narratives. In 2017, she co-founded the collective Vaste Programme.

Opus 58 is a duo of composer Liepa Vozgirdaitė and sound artist and improviser Kristupas Gikas. Their practice moves between experimental music performance and sound intervention, treating sound as a fragile and unstable encounter rather than a finished entity. Improvisation is central to their working method, yet it is approached from two distinct artistic positions. Vozgirdaitė’s practice is primarily text based, emerging from notation as a way of organising time and structuring sound. Gikas’ practice responds directly to the instability and contingency of the immediate environment. Together, these approaches create a shared field of tension, a productive mismatch that serves as a testing ground for how structure adapts, shifts, or dissolves when confronted with indeterminacy. Using turntables as their main instruments, alongside found objects and spontaneously assembled materials, Opus 58 explores how sound interrupts and intervenes within diverse acoustic, spatial, and social contexts.
