DROSS with whom I work with are part of the anthology "Artist Collectives: Conversations, Methods and Practices" compiled by
@projectpotpourri which launches this Saturday. Project Potpourri was set up by three members of Experimental Space Collective [esc] to forge connections between Artist Collectives.
The book in a digital version at this time is available to view here: /view/b1660ec6-6bcf-40c2-90bc-402cb5d7f6b5
The book emerged from a call-out in 2023 to artist collectives across the globe. It is a conversation with and between collectives, a window into artist-led practices: a snapshot in time. It probes ideas of what an artist collective might be, why they form, how they operate and the significance of collective practices at a particular juncture in our ecological, socio-political and digital lives.
The book was edited and compiled by Pragya Bhargava, Sally Stenton, Svetlana Atlavina. It includes an opening text by Dr John Wright, and comprises contributions from Array Collective, ARRE, BlueJackal, Coin-Operated Press, D R O S S, Echoes Of Our Earth, Experimental Space Collective, Futures Past Coalition, Greater Manchester Collective, IRMÃ, Michelle Freeman and Elizabeth Gibson, MUD Collective, Naarm Textile Collective, Nova Chroma, Nullstellung, Q_plus_I, SoMo, somom, Tellus ArtLab, The Art and Energ Collective, TROIIICA, Videokaffe, and Z'otz*.
