Andrialis Abdul Rahman is a fine art photographer from Malaysia. She uses her camera as a mirror to look at identity, memory, and the silent parts of herself. She is a senior lecturer in the Creative Photomedia Department at Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) and has a Master's degree in Art (Photomedia) from the University of New South Wales in Australia. Her art is very personal, and she often mixes experimental and alternative photographic processes to make pictures that feel both close and surreal. In her continuous series of auto-portraits, Andrialis uses the camera to show herself, combining past and present in layered compositions that tell stories that words cannot. These pieces are more than just portraits; they are ways for her to talk to her own past, recollect, and take back her identity. Her careful attention to arrangement and light turns personal introspection into universal resonance, encouraging viewers to see parts of their memories in her pictures.

Eiffel Chong graduated with an MA in International Contemporary Art and Design Practice from the University of East London and a BA (Hons) in Photography from London College of Communication. Besides his production of photographic work, Chong is highly engaged with the Malaysian photographic community, taking on the role of mentor for the Malaysian Pixel Shooting Stars programme. In addition, he has been appointed to the panel of judges for the Kuala Lumpur Photography Awards and Annual Nikon Photo Awards, Malaysia. He is also an academician at Tunku Abdul Rahman University of Management and Technology. Eiffel Chong’s work considers abstract concepts of life and death through the banal details, silent landscapes and curious obsessions he observes from daily life. He is interested in how the photographic medium can translate a particular time and space, memories and thoughts into something permanent. He personally thinks that the images say more with less, and make one just want to stare and think about it. He is currently based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
