  • Reflection Notes

“This became a new ritual, holding a painting or drawing together. This is one of the ‘working 2000s’ that has been archived and moved to mistral in an archive box. Sands has one of these pictures with each of the GSA collaborators. Image taken after a recorded conversation between SMW and AC, about their collaboration, feminism, looking back at the past months.” – RR.

  • Reflection Notes

“The start of the horse cloud. You have to start somewhere. It looks like there is no ‘system’ or ‘strategy’ for hanging this work, but in a way there is: it is a relational one, we figure the structure out by doing.” – RR.

“Sands and Robin together on the couch, a few minutes after I stopped recording. A bit tired after talking for 2 hours and 20 minutes, but also excited and happy-it felt like everyone in the room knew this was an important conversation somehow. SMW and RWM surrounded by works they have been collecting, and a framed drawing from Sands on the left.” – RR.

GSA meeting – 12.01.20. “Metaphoric and concrete, it all lives together. Horizontality has a logical structure to it, and so does messiness.” – MH.

  • Reflection Notes

Rijksakademie Internal Open Studios – 07.09.20. “[I feel] nervous, uncomfortable.” – SMW. “It’s about the way they [visitors] manoeuvre their space. It completely changed – intruder!” – AC. “We are a collective and part of our work is the corporeality of it.” – SMW. “We are representing two silent [not present] partners. We are performative. How to do that without the performers?” – AC. “Just leave the door open.” – SMW. “We are not complete renegades, only slightly.” – AC.
