An online exhibition presenting the situations of a remarkable group of artists as they bring us closer into their processes and environments; their homes, their studios- their habitats.
This exhibition complicates the notion of the artist in their "natural habitat". Expanding beyond the preconceived understanding of what is understood to be natural for artists. In this exhibition we present the diverse artistic approaches to process, and how this group of artists are negotiating the changes in our communities and the changes in their habitats when making, refashioning, capturing or imagining their practice.
“There was this collective stillness. Nature was loud and we were quiet and mourning. No rush to go anywhere. Forced to be with ourselves and our thoughts.” – Bernard Brand
