The painting of a Twickenham pink house will not sit alongside a Victorian couple by the lake.
On Saturday 16th June, Daniella Norton and Andrea Slater will not be exhibiting work that makes them comfortable.
Rather than installing a large painting and a video projection they intend to devote time to
developing work that in the first instance feels ‘odd’, but also ‘new’ or even ‘exciting’. Rather
than exhibit work, they will begin by asking what both ‘work’ and ‘exhibition’ can mean.
The large painting and video projection will not be present. Instead, the artists will use a
strategy to create work between each others decisions. Things will be left for each other to
respond to, to change, to deny or to enhance. It is this collaborative approach that shall take
place, culminating in an exhibition. Culminating in a conclusion, of sorts.
