Project Statement

“Through their work, the artists speak to the intersection of ancestral bonds, memory, identity and artistic labour, while also considering the constructed image and camera-mediated experience. Their disparate practices find common ground through their unique approach to process and materiality—surface, light, assemblage and the body’s relationship to material, sculpture and technology are just a few of the themes explored in this exciting selection of work.” — Kate Henderson, Independent Curator

The Flat File Project

The Flat File Project is an innovative lens-based print edition project connecting emerging and mid-career artists with art collectors. The Flat File Project features artwork from five locally based artists each invited by an independent curator. The curator and the gallerist work collaboratively with each artist to identify a selection of artwork for the Flat File drawers. Each artwork is issued as a limited edition of 10 and comes with an artist-signed Certificate of Authenticity. The archival prints are available directly from Gallery 881 from either the physical Flat File drawers or purchased online here. If you would like to see the prints in person, please drop by the gallery or contact the gallerist for more information.
