TRYING TO REMEMBER EVERYTHING THAT haS EVER HAPPENED AT FELTspace

An exercise in memory, narrative and sociability held in 2013 as part of the de-versions festival at FELTspace, an artist-run gallery.

I invited all current and ex-directors of the space to attend an event in the space where we attempted to record all the artists, exhibitions, feelings, emotions, complications and other tangential activity that had occurred at FELTspace since its inception in early 2008. 

This record was written directly onto the gallery wall and remained there during the de-versions festival,  a series of events and 24 hour exhibitions held over two weeks in November.  

Photographs of the recording event were printed and displayed next to the wall work for the duration of the festival period.  

In producing this temporary record, I wanted to produce a record that runs counter to a more straightforward exhibitions archive, and better takes into account the negotiations of power dynamics over the lifespan of such a collective undertaking.
