This site was curated to show the work of friends whose art I highly enjoy and respect. Each of these artists has influenced me, either in conversation or more directly through collaboration. The work is not joined by a united theme, aesthetic, or medium. I believe the work is connected by its quality and interdisciplinary nature.
My intent is to emphasize the multiple approaches each artist takes to creating their artwork, which explains the structure: 3 images (drawings, photos, installations, etc.) and 2 time-based works (audio and/or video). As for the interview content, the questions were generated by the participants, based on what they would like to ask each other. In addition, the family tree format was chosen specifically to show the growth of the site.
I would like for this site to function as an organic curatorial project, with artists inviting others they admire while asking them about their work, among other things.
