Swarm Gallery presents “Things Are Expanding.” The process: Swarm invited fourteen of its gallery artists to invite another artist of their choosing (from outside the gallery) to collaborate on a piece. We encouraged the artists to invite someone whose work they admire, but who works differently – either in medium, creative style, concept, or all of the above – to “stretch their creative muscles”. My collaborator is Derek Weisberg and we created a large ceramic Janus bust. Opening pics here and sculpture pics here.
