Lena is a designer based in Ridgewood.

Lena attempts through design to redefine the relationship between post-modern human and the machine.

Their work is trying to map and simultaneously deconstruct the limits of body, gender and space.

Lena’s research field revolves around the concept of life as a constant performance.

When Lena is not designing, they are teaching Queering Space at Parsons and performing their alter ego as a vacuum cleaner.

I LOVE TO DANCE

Toronto-born, New York based photographer Matin Zad’s distinctive, idiosyncratic images have placed him amongst the most exciting new talents since graduating from the School of Visual Arts in 2014. His stark yet dreamlike work exists somewhere between fashion photography and fine art, gaining him attention in both fields.
As a new graduate, Zad was the first place recipient of Bottega Veneta’s New Exposure Photography Competition, and collaborated with Duckie Brown on a poster campaign that appeared throughout New York Fashion Week.

His work has appeared in renowned publications including Document Journal, CR Fashion Book and T Magazine. Zad was one of 10 winners to be awarded with the Avant Guardian photography competition, hosted by Surface Magazine in 2015. That same year he published his first book from a ongoing photo series called #fashion vol.1 in an edition of 500 copies, sold worldwide. His second book, S/S98 was released in March of 2018.
