Exhibition - LRC online
group exhibition - MILE MARKERS
Land Report Collective
May 2020
For the online exhibition, each day for a week, one artwork by one member of Land Report Collective was released on Instagram and Facebook. This sequence of online posts led up to the website reveal of the collection.
Although each Land Report artist investigates formal and conceptual issues based in the landscape as an individual, the essence of our collective lies in the intersection between the things each of us point at – as if we were pointing to locations like road signs. New meanings and contexts emerge when viewers see the conversations that open up between works in an exhibition that would not normally occur when pieces are exhibited in isolation. Furthermore, the development of the work for each exhibition is a result of the artists being in direct and indirect dialogue with each other, the spaces they inhabit and the people they interact with there. Through this active process, members of the collective make new work as if it were a conversation, even though each artist acts autonomously and there is no hierarchical structure imposed.
For Mile Markers, I shared a new drawing that visualizes social distancing while creating during social distancing
