Nancy Lee ??? is a Taiwanese-Canadian interdisciplinary media artist, curator, filmmaker, DJ and cultural producer. Their work stimulates and enlivens space, making a provocative statement about how inescapably interconnected we are with our surroundings. This notion of staging is a constant in Nancy’s work and underpins their projects, from their early work as a more traditional filmmaker, through their conception and planning of live events, and into the realms of XR, new media performance and installation, where their art practices continue to coalesce and evolve.

Taylor Hughes bio: you’re driving through the city at night and it just stopped raining, glowing neon signs are reflecting in the puddles between the cracked pavement. you’re ready to blow off some steam from a bad week, maybe even a bad year. Hell, you’re just looking for anything or anyone to make you feel something again. same. The idea of pure xtc was formed during an extremely isolating time for multi instrumentalist Taylor Hughes. Living truly on her own for the first time, she moved to the NYC metro in 2019. Time was spent crying on subways, climbing new rooftops, meeting new people, avoiding new people, feeling extremely fulfilled to feeling like a hollow empty shell. Pure xtc is taking you along for the highs and the lows of a very volatile ride, pulling inspiration from artists along the likes of The xx, Phantogram and Silversun Pickups.
