Accessibility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In what ways can you make your art accessible? To make change, the art has to not just be in your studio, or bedroom, it has to be in the world. Think globally, but act locally. In your neighbourhood, how can you disseminate information, the art? This is obviously, wheat pasting, stencilling, tagging, moss tagging, but those are not all. Stickers, performance art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does it mean to have art accessible? It can mean so many different things to different people. It can mean having the type large enough so those who can\u2019t see can read it, accepting the fact that not everybody can read the language that you use. It can be not having it in the \u2018white cube\u2019 space that is not accessible for many people. It can mean even just having people see your work. It can mean so many different things. I will add to this later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What we\u2019re going to explore here in this day is making it accessible for people who are different than us, removing barriers that might be unconscious barriers, f.e. for fine art people it\u2019s the white cube gallery, that\u2019s where exhibition happens – how to you make accessible your art outside of an exhibition or a shop? How do you make your art accessible outside of a website?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is also about connecting and supporting your local community. Sometimes the right message at the right time can support someone very much and make them feel not alone. That\u2019s where we take the topic that we bring, which might be a very big topic, but make it in a local environment which can bring a multitude of techniques to bear; from wheat-pasting, stickering, tagging, moss tagging, gorilla gardening, projecting images. We\u2019re only limited by our imagination what can be done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the challenge, get the art out of the studio and to be seen, or if it\u2019s not feasible depending on the medium and other considerations, there are so many aspects of accessibility that we can work on. With sculptures they take much more than one day but what does accessibility mean – where will the sculpture be, who will see it, and can we do things differently so there is a different audience? Can we make art in a way that is not internalising the gatekeeping that the art world has created? With our art we can break down barriers, yet we also can be aware of and address the barriers to access our own art, both those inflicted on us, and those we might inflict with our unconscious bias.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re not able to explain it simply you might not understand it, and this is going back to the core of the topic you selected and finding ways of making it both simple and accessible. Simple is not a bad word – simple doesn\u2019t mean easy. To make something very simple is hard work. This is not about explaining it\u2019s about creating space. If you try to make people think the right way, it\u2019s unethical. The best we can do is create space for people to make up their own mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The flame from the torch reads \u2018Anarchy\u2019. There\u2019s a \u2018Free Love\u2019 ribbon on the hat, and a \u2018Round Bombs\u2019 border around the hat. It\u2019s wearing a sash that reads \u2018Communes\u2019, and the top of the poster reads \u2018mob law\u2019. Text across the bottom reads \u201cMany blame queers for the decline of this society – we take pride in this. Some believe that we intend to shred-to-bits this civilization and its moral fabric – they couldn\u2019t be more accurate. We\u2019re often described as depraved, decadent, and revolting – but oh, they ain\u2019t seen nothing yet.\u201d.

This is diversity of methods, and just try to make your work live in the world. It might be that your topic is a very big one, about war, violence, about nations, about other forms of discrimination and abuse, and those are big topics, but can you make it live outside of your comfort zone, in the world, where it can nurture others by being seen?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
