this is personal
this is collective
this is political
this is public
this is negotiation
this is two years of sharing, growing, learning,
building up a practice held in conversation
this is a sentence to read
a language I don’t speak
this is thirty two artists unfolding together
a community that spans walls, crosses borders, loops through time
this is the final year of free tuition for all
this is not an art fair
this is an attempt
this is hanging from the ceiling, hanging on the walls,
hanging from the floors
floors that can’t be damaged,
and blank walls made messy
this is leaking in the space
this is slippery
don’t step on it (this is soft on our feet)
this is something to touch, something you cannot
this is sound, smell, senses
a beckoning
this is electricity and cables
paper, metal, pigment, wood, clay
linen, cotton, canvas
this is carpet on the wall and water on the floor
matter out of place
this is a tipping point
this is an exit
an end of something as it was
this is an entrance
this is the beginning.
