Niki Campbell & Lindsay Connors
Having collaborated together on a number of experimental projects since graduating in 2008, we joined forces again in 2012 to present an exhibition titled ‘Works on Paper’. The project challenged us to work within the constraints of the traditional medium of paper to extend pre-occupations in our individual practices. It enabled us to push against the boundaries and explore the formal and informal implications inherent in the creation of work on, with and from paper, creating an exciting exhibition ranging from contemporary drawing, printmaking, sculpture and installation.
We would like to develop this further, inviting other artists to engage in this visual debate. Through collaboration, we would like to investigate, explore and challenge what a ‘Work on Paper’ can be and ask questions such as, who has ownership of the work? Can a work ever be ‘finished’? How much ‘work’ must be done before a ‘work on paper’ is an artwork?
