This fourth edition features a carefully curated program of student research, performances, and demonstrations, coordinated by Jacqueline Beaumont, highlighting the experimental practices emerging from within the network. She has brought together the works of Shirin Abu Shaqra, Sarah Barone, Shirley Ceravolo, Poki Chan, Kristian North & Mike Cassidy, Hraïr Hratchian, Philippe Vandal, and Celia Vara for the way they articulate connections between human experience and broader systems—whether ecological, political, economic, or metaphysical.

This assemblage invites the public to develop an embodied understanding of these dynamics and their multiplicities. The artists explore our relationship to historical knowledge production through cellular, individual, and collective perspectives, highlighting the persistence of alternative narratives. Diaspora, memory, and techno-critical turbulence reveal the interdependence between human and non-human systems. As a whole, Gala 2025 offers an aesthetic approach to these immaterial relationships.

The evening combines exhibitions and live performances with food and drinks, creating a space for network members and guests to connect and celebrate emerging talents in research-creation.
