[Текст доступен только на английском языке] MYKORRHIZZA is a newly founded audiovisual collective based in Zurich, Switzerland, formed in summer 2026 by VJ and multimedia artist inxile/Lili Inexile together with multimedia artists and DJs Brvna and Megagiga. They’re working across live visual performance, spatial projection, electronic music, DJing and multimedia/sound art. The three artists have previously collaborated on various projects and share practices spanning video, projection mapping, sound, field recordings, fine arts and DJing. They are also active in different ways within Zurich’s electronic music and nightlife scene.
Inspired by mycorrhizal networks, the underground fungal systems that enable communication and the exchange of resources between plants, they approach their work as non-hierarchical and collaborative process in which sound, image and space continuously influence one another. Like a mycelial network, the audiovisual system evolves through subtle interactions, feedback loops and unexpected connections. Musical gestures trigger visual responses, while visual transformations reshape the perception of rhythm, space and texture, allowing the performance to unfold organically in the moment.
MYKORRHIZZA is not only the name of the collective but also a working method: a decentralized practice of listening, responding and creating together in real time.
(((Vj inxile/Lili Inexile)))
Lili Inexile (also known as VJ Inxile / Lise Couchet) is a Swiss multimedia artist who transforms physical spaces into immersive digital realities. Her work sits at the intersection of technology and nature, seamlessly mapping intricate digital compositions into organic surfaces like trees, landscapes, and architectural facades.
Finding grace in hidden or overlooked places. Lise creates cinematic, layered moving paintings that blend surrealism, computer graphics, and musical rhythm. Inspired by sunlight reflections in nature and cities, she films landscapes, people, and organic forms. She approaches her art like a curious collector, building mysterious and unexpected new worlds.
Her artistic journey began in the underground electronic music and electro-punk scenes of Zurich. Since then, she has expanded her practice internationally, refining her distinct visual aesthetic through projects across Melbourne, Australia, Europe and Switzerland. Highly versatile in her execution, Lili's live projections bridge the worlds of club culture, contemporary theater, high fashion, and fine art galleries.
(((Brvna)))
Giulia Hess is a Zurich-based multimedia artist whose research-based practice investigates hidden systems, structures and processes, whether social, biological or perceptual, and explores how they can be made perceptible through audiovisual and spatial means. Her practice moves between archival research, field recording, material experimentation and site-specific installation, often developed through collaborations with other artists.
Alongside her artistic practice, she works as a DJ under the name Brvna. In the club context, she weaves tracks from different genres into a coherent flow, combining distorted acid basslines, complex rhythms and energetic techno to create atmospheric, textural spaces that embrace the dark, foggy energy of the basement. In her quieter sets, she explores more droning and experimental sounds, focusing on a attentive, narrativ listening. Her work moves between the exhibition space and the club, bringing together visual experimentation, experimental sound and live performance.
(((MEGAgiga)))
Magdalena Baranya is a multimedia-based artist working across photography, textiles, wallpaper, video and sound. Her practice explores the relationships between image, space, material and perception, often through interdisciplinary and immersive projects. Alongside her artistic work, she works as a DJ and develops projects that move between different media and forms of collaboration.
She holds a Master’s degree in Fine Arts (2020) and a Bachelor’s degree in Photography (2014) from Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK), as well as a Bachelor’s degree in Conservation with a focus on audiovisual media from Bern University of the Arts (HKB, 2025). She is also trained as a media conservator, bringing an awareness of materiality, preservation and the physical conditions of media into her artistic practice. Her background in media conservation informs her interest in the material, technological and spatial conditions of images and media.
