Jakub Hájek (*1994) a František Hanousek (*1994) Pracují s širokým rozsahem výrazových nástrojů ve škále nedigitálních materiálů, s mixem mnoha rozdílných složek, které v jejich podání prorůstají a hybridizují ad absurdum. Úzus tvorby tkví v metodické parodizaci technologie, reflexivní dětské hře, muzeologické parafikci, materiálové události jako injektáži osobní historie. Absolvovali rezidenční stáže v C. Rockefeller Center for Contemporary Arts v Drážďanech, v road-space Dálava v Praze a na 42. MMS v Moravanech nad Váhom. V rámci kolektivních výstav byli součástí přehlídky Wasting Around: Tradition in Verses v galerii Bistro 21 v Lipsku, dále vystavovali např. v galeriích Futura, A.M. 180, Meetfactory, s Výstavní síní Hrob či s uskupením PGS a Essenza Club. Nyní zahájili roční spolupráci s galerií Future Suburban Contemporary v Kodani
