Anindita Dutta is an Indian-born sculptor, installation, and performance artist who transforms resilience and trauma into a radical visual language. Through hyper-intense sculptural expressions, she deconstructs the complex terrains of female identity—mapping the intricate landscapes of pain, pleasure, vulnerability, and strength. Her work has been exhibited both in the US and internationally, including at the Sean Kelly Gallery in New York; Fukuoka Asian Art Museum in Japan; Arthur M. Sackler Museum of Art and Archaeology in Beijing, China; and CAMAC in Marney-sur-Seine, France, among others. She has received numerous prestigious grants and fellowships, such as the 2022 TOY Fellow and the 2022 NXTHVN Fellowship in New Haven, USA, the Fukuoka Asian Art Museum Artist Residency Grant in Japan (2010), the Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant (2008), a residency at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture (2005), and the UNESCO-Aschberg Bursaries for Artists Fellowship (2005).

Her works are part of several esteemed collections, including the Fukuoka Asian Art Museum in Japan, the Arthur M. Sackler Museum of Art in Beijing, China, the Clarinda Carnegie Art Museum, the Francis J. Greenburger Collection, the Arthur M. Sackler Collection, the Karen and Robert Duncan Collection, and the Marc and Kathy LeBaron Collection.

Diego Moreno (b. San Cristobal de las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico, 1992) is a visual artist, photographer, and narrative storyteller based between Mexico and Switzerland. His work approaches photography as a tool to create new worlds, entwined with text, drawing, and painting. Through family photo archives, graphic intervention, and collage, he explores popular mythology, legends, and magical stories, drawing analogies and creating invented realities. His work centers themes of identity, religion, violence, affection, and the complexity of family and cultural ties. He considers photography a medium for narrative control, which has inspired his focus on photobooks.

He has been named as one of the most influential young photographers in the world by The British Journal Of Photography UK; Creative Review UK and FOAM MAGAZINE Netherlands. He has received various awards: the POY LATAM Latin American Photography Award in three categories in 2025 and 2019 in Quito, Ecuador; the UNSTUCK 2022 Award in Toronto, Canada, awarded by the Magenta Foundation; FOAM TALENT 2022 in Amsterdam; iPhone Photography Awards 2021 in New York; LensCulture Art Awards 2021 in Amsterdam; Cheerz Photo Festival 2019 in Paris, France; International Image Award 2019 in Mexico; LensCulture Emerging Talent Award 2018 in Amsterdam; and the Acquisition Award at the 10th Puebla de los Ángeles Biennial 2015 in Mexico. 

He has shown in more than twenty solo exhibitions and multiple group exhibitions across the globe. His photographs are included in public and private collections including the Getty Guggenheim Memorial Foundation (New York), AirMontreux (Switzerland), FOAM Fotografie Museum (Amsterdam), the Fundación Televisa (Mexico DF), the Universidad Iberoamericana (Puebla), and the Centro Cultural Estación Mapocho (Santiago de Chile). He currently lives and works between Mexico and Switzerland.

Larissa De Jesús Negrón(b. Puerto Rico, 1994) is a multidisciplinary artist working across painting, installation, and visual storytelling. Her practice constructs surreal landscapes that weave memory, emotional inquiry, and embodied experience. Water functions as a central metaphor for psychological movement and introspection, while the female body operates as both archive and agent, grounding her work in themes of vulnerability, femininity, and inner transformation.

Born and raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Larissa resided in various municipalities including Guaynabo, Trujillo Alto, and Caguas. Larissa pursued her secondary education at Central High, a prestigious art-focused institution in Puerto Rico, culminating in her graduation with the school's highest accolade. Subsequently, she sought to expand her artistic horizons at The School of Plastic Arts in Old San Juan, specializing in Drawing and Painting. Transitioning to Hunter College in New York City, Larissa earned her BFA degree with distinction.

Larissa’s work has been exhibited extensively, including in solo exhibitions at Anna Zorina Gallery and Nicodim, and in group shows at Harpers Gallery, The Hole and Nino Mier. She has also shown at leading art fairs, including KIAF Seoul, NADA, Untitled and The Armory Show.

Pedro Troncoso (b.1996, Dominican Republic) is a New York–based artist whose work layers erased narratives into dreamlike spaces where blurred identities confront colonial impact. In the fragile space between ancestry and autonomy, his work asks: how much of our heritage are we willing to negotiate or rebuild? He earned his BFA in Illustration at Parsons School of Design after formative studies at Altos de Chavón, La Escuela de Diseño (DR), and holds an MFA in Fine Arts from the New York Academy of Art. His work has been shown at the 29th and 31st Dominican Biennials, NADA, Art Central Hong Kong, ComplexCon, and the AXA Art Prize, with additional exhibitions in New York, Los Angeles, Hong Kong, Puerto Rico, and Beijing. His practice has been profiled in Blanc Magazine, Whitewall, Artlyst, New American Paintings, among others.

For the Browns, the Queers, and the Witches. Friday exists to enable the discovery of rising creative voices from the Global South, curating art, objects, and editions from the Middle East, South Asia, Latin America, and beyond.

Our space blends an art gallery with a cultural salon series to create a seasonal platform anchored in a rotating theme, with the art, object, and programming curation bound together in a shared spirit. From Pakistani minimalism, to the surrealist visions of feminist Dubai photographers, to queer gothic brujas in Mexico, we peel back old divides to celebrate the cultural voices of tomorrow. Our name (جمعة) comes from the Middle East tradition of honoring Friday as a time of connection, presence, and community. Art is our shared table. May we dine on delight.
