Artist Initiative
ACHF Arts Access
To create a body of work that addresses cultural fears of the end of the world and shifts in cultural consciousness. A dialogue will be developed through the work. The work itself will be in narrative form, and will emulate previous infamous tales of the destruction of the human race in tandem with invented tales. 2: To interact with the community through public exhibition. How the concept is received by the public, and how much dialogue is developed from the exhibition.
The exhibition held at Red Garage Studio housed all of the work created during the grant period. Personal conversations between the artist and a viewer were a big factor in evaluating the merit of the content. Conversations had among viewers and brought to the artists were a secondary, but very important aspect. The intention was to generate conversation that goes beyond the physical work, but to the cultural norms and cultural shifts brought up by the idea of apocalypse and dystopia.
