Title of Work: Six Feet



This moment, complex and layered, merits a complicated response.  Expressed through painting, needlework and textile, installation, film and video, photography, pottery, image transfer, drawing, text, collage, printmaking, assemblage performance, and sculpture; this exhibit is a conversation between artists who may never meet face-to-face.

This project titled Six Feet, consisted of one large black and glossy platform sized at 6’ in radius. Originally created as a part of the enclosure of Prototype 8.0, it was conceived of as a small stage at the beginning of 2020 and soon transformed into a physical marker of the times by the end of 2020. Six feet was the recommended measure for physical distancing and the platform became a manifestation of the personal bubble. If a person were to stand at the centre of the platform the glossy field which extended before them would be a no-go zone for others. The platform stood at the entrance to the exhibit, confronting visitors to the gallery with the imagined radius of space they had been distancing themselves all year and for the foreseeable future.
