11 artists each made a series of 11 (or 12 for symmetry) small works to split up and gift to each other when we could after lockdown.
This iteration started as a lockdown project, as a reason to get into the makeshift kitchen table studios we set up during the late 2021 lockdown. Highly accessible yet fractured, compromised spaces of making that reflected our scattered and deformed plans.
A reason, or simply an invitation to make - for ourselves and ultimately for each other. The project concept provided an important alternative strategy for art-making when everything was suspended and submerged. Gift, reciprocity and connection; the demoted and misplaced reasons that became the cornerstone of making as our regular dominant economies and demanding schedules dissolved.
