NWEB approached Clare and Elsie with a proposal to come together for an exhibition at the George Paton gallery. We were interested in the similarities in the practices - both artists are playing with precognitive images or structures that are innate/within opposed to learned/conceived. The artists share a tender nuance that could be defined as poetic. Poiesis - making. Both practices offer a self-reflexive system that bears the marks of its construction. In doing so the viewer becomes a part of the construction. The project became an editorial task. We asked Claire and Elsie to rewrite or write from Franz Kafka’s ‘Up in the Gallery’. Consistent with Kafka's work the story plays with the relationship of being and appearance. The story is indeterminate and could take the form of a dream, it’s slippery and subjective. The responses to the text play on the idiosyncrasies of Kafka’s story and take both poetic and narrative forms.

NWEB Participates in Virtual Signalling Curated by Karl Halliday.

NWEB have made an artists book.. We wanted to collaboratively author an unbound publication with images from five of our friends. The book is to be distributed unbound, without any direction as to how to order the pages, an index prone to disorder. The simple materiality of the book is important, loose images can be displayed and organised according to the particular viewers interests and impulses. Facilitating freedom and agency in engagement.

“From the Bible to Oedipus Rex to King Lear, literature has long concerned itself with the difficult relations that sometimes arise between members of different generations. The Fifth Commandment- ‘Honor thy father and thy mother that you may have a long life in the land which the Eternal, your God, is giving you’- is perhaps the earliest known acknowledgement of the human potential for intergenerational conflict. Yet it seems that every generation of humans has faced this dilemma, and perhaps never more so than during the 1960s, when a demographic time bomb loosed the largest generation of teenagers in history upon an unsuspecting world. With numbers on its side, this generation would set its own terms in the age-old conflict of youth vs. everyone else, and never those terms more clearly expressed than in the lyrics of My Generation.”
