After trampling in the muddy rice fields of rural Vietnam then wandering supermarket aisles in the United States, Millian Pham received her BFA in painting and printmaking from the University of Tulsa in Oklahoma and her MFA in sculpture from the University of Florida. Pham's art practice uses personal and cultural signifiers of her native Vietnam and adopted America in the mediums of painting, printmaking, sculpture, performance, and installation. She currently combines image with text to create a phenomenological effect of perceptual switching as metaphor for code-switching. Her visual research has been exhibited nationally and internationally in Canada, Pakistan, Korea, and across the United States. Pham was an artist-in-resident for the I-Park Artist Enclave, the Hambidge Art Center, ACRE, Santa Fe Art Institute, and the Virginia Center for Creative Arts. She currently serves as the Art Editor of Broadsided Press, Board Member of Strata Gallery, and the FATE VP of Regional Programming. She is currently the Studio Art Foundations Coordinator and Assistant Professor of Art at Auburn University in Alabama.

Lisa Iglesias's visual research materializes through individual and collective projects with her sister, sculptor and assistant professor at University of California San Diego, Janelle Iglesias. As Las Hermanas Iglesias, the two make work that reflects their Dominican/Norwegian heritage, disrupts discipline categories and often encourages audience participation. In addition, the sisters independently and collectively collaborate with their mother, Bodhild Iglesias. Recent projects with Bodhild include the translation of drawings into knit paintings and wearable sculptures and suits that Bodhild knits in measure with their bodies. Through individual and collaborative works, Lisa Iglesias's goal is for the viewer to consider both various forms of time as well as the act of collaboration– whether with another person, community, architectural space or material. She has been an artist in residence as part of her independent studio research at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, Virginia Center for the Creative Arts and Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts, among others. Her collaborative eQorts have brought her to residencies including the Fanoon Center for Printmedia Research (Doha, Qatar), the Abrons Art Center Social Engagement Residency (New York City), Arizona State University, Stoneleaf Retreat (Kingston, NY) and 6ARI (Tasmania, Australia).
