Description of Project: FERAL is a progressive, overlapping exhibition that will be open Friday - Sunday 11-5pm between 9 January - 8 February 2015. Opening events for its five iterations are Fridays 9, 16, 23 + 30 January and 6 February at 6-8pm, each of which will show the work of a different combination of twenty artists.

 

The FERAL program is designed for artists to experiment with installation or placement of artwork in an architectural space that is already altered by the earlier installation of other artists' work, and which will be altered again when another group replaces that earlier installation. It is called FERAL because its progressive overlapping nature is a slightly feral form of exhibition practice, and because FERAL sounds like FAIR ISLE, the 2014 version of the same sort of project. The FERAL/FAIR-ISLE  project is part of the broader Articulate interest in the relationships artworks form with their locations. It does this by focusing in particular on the contribution that the changing installation of artworks make in the constitution of a site.
