  • Reflection Notes

Rijksakademie Internal Open Studios – 07.09.20. “My relationship with money is disastrous.” – SMW. “If you show them (galleries, museums, employers in general) that they can do that to you, they will do it to everyone. We need to get paid for the hours that we put in, not the product. My salary per hour is X much, as per X Artist Association guidelines.” – Anon.

  • Reflection Notes

“A first meeting, a mirror. Even when a snapshot is blurry, sometimes you know a moment needs to be captured. The start of a collaboration between SMW, MH, RR, and a friendship. ‘We looked at a booklet of images made with Valie Export (which she doesn’t want to be public). Then we walked to the Rijksakademie. Megan suggested to think of different categories; aside from regular archive categories such as material, date, medium, we can also think of people that the work relates to (Carolee, Adrian, Hannah, Robin etc. etc.)‘ From the meta-archive process diary.” – RR.
