Fork is an art project that seeks to dissect and document the ideas, processes, and manifestations of Sydney artists. The project explores the traditional representation of bodies and identities in visual culture and is interested in how artists think, act and make in response. We move in the present, but the past sticks around. Fork disrupts definition
in search for an understanding of things in
their fullness, and looks to interrogate if and how our bodies, minds, and conversations have been culturally disciplined. Fork connects a diversity of artists with a fresh, and receptive audience and conveys how these artists are developing their practices; how they are thinking, and therefore looks at the future of art, not the past. Fork is inspired by feminism, q***r and performance theory, the post-pornographic, hyper-reality and poststructuralism. The Fork project will document the transcripts of conversations with artists online to build a digital archive of creativity and ideas. Sydney, 2017 is a ripe orchard of brilliant minds. Fork acknowledges and respects the Gadigal people as the traditional and ongoing owners and custodians of land upon which this project takes place on in the Eora Nation. Sovereignty never ceded. Fork pays respect to their Elders past, present, and future
