Pignocchi made the series during a 408-day sabbatical after a decade in Amsterdam, living first in a tent and then in a van to spend her days outdoors and in the sun. The title means Good Weather, a common Italian phrase, and the work draws on memories of growing up as a woman in Italy, in a culture of machismo that placed women below men. She came to see her roots as an accumulation of experiences shaped by family and landscape rather than a fixed place.

Warocquier's series follows a group of women who gather in an isolated place of woodland, a cemetery and a lakeshore, and build a temporary world of their own there.

The title refers to a wolf trying to break free from the chest, a figure for the instinct that persists in the body.

Magnaghi is a visual artist and fashion designer based in Buenos Aires whose practice centers primarily on oil painting. Her paintings are quiet scenes drawn from personal memory and aesthetics of the past.

Magnaghi ties this contrast to the emotional restraint of contemporary life, where detachment can be a way of hiding what one feels.
