IN-KIND COLLECTIVE
Something Holding These Bodies In-Kind (30:55)
As part of the Collective Polyphony Festival
Modelling peace-building architecture and infrastructure, the Collective Polyphony Festival is a ground-breaking multi-space event that fosters and nurtures emerging and established artist collectives. It is founded upon the central idea of artists supporting artists.
This extraordinary gathering brings together 10 local and international, emerging and established artist collectives across 7 exhibition spaces.
Something Holding these Bodies In-Kind (30:55) allows for individual journeys to be drawn through the notion of an artist-collective. An artist-collective is defined as an initiative resulting from a group of artists working together, under their own management, towards shared aims. For this exhibition, the artists will consider what current journeys they are on. Through a process of shared creative practice, they will begin to dismantle the individuality of their own projects, finding threads of exchange with one another. The resulting work will simultaneously challenge the independence of their own work while considering what an artist-collective can be.
