MANY (november 2016)


During those weeks we all had differing schedules, so often varying constellations of people would be working together. Because it was difficult to get everyone in the same place, we also never had that initial pre-show alignment chat. With all of us operating as spheres, exerting pushes and pulls against one another and toward the expanding central sculptures, through materials arriving in the space carried by personal intention then hijacked by collective use, four complex and distinct fountains started to self-organise, the water from which would be interconnected with pipes that were cable tied to the wires that dispersed out to provide light to each of the arrangements. The magic of this experience emanated from the space when we unsealed the container and people started to arrive on the opening night, the process was catalytic for all of us, and we were buzzing for the following months, dispersing off to apply this energy to new activity.
