TURN pt. 1/12 — Shaun Kardinal

This piece is not finished. This piece is only the start.

Proposed title: Dust Proposed conclusion: Online Raffle

TURN is a year-long collaborative exhibition, where twelve artists take turns transforming a single piece. Details

Very happy with how this piece turned out. It’s the first tangible work I’ve created in nearly two years. When I started up the Turn project, I had no idea what I wanted to make for the start. I knew soon enough that I wanted to make something about origins—an atom, or perhaps something rising from the ground. I devoted a few weekends to really get into the thing, and found myself again cutting up old postcards. After all this time, something about them still holds for me, and I’m eager to play again.

I'm very excited to launch Turn, a collaborative exhibition platform. Twelve artists. Twelve exhibitions. One piece.

The first year-long series kicks off next week!

THANK YOU to everyone who came out and participated last night!

Visitors were verbally prompted to enter a URL into their mobile browser and then place the device anywhere on the shelves. The resulting installation, displaying a random array of video clips created for the piece, organically expanded and contracted throughout the night.

The show lives on, virtually everywhere. Visit relinquish.me on any number of mobile browsers, choose a screen orientation, then place your devices together to create your own unique installation!

Stoked to be see my work in the new issue of multimedia online publication MAKE8ELIEVE, featuring a great collection of work using month's theme: MOUNTAINS. Each issue comes in three parts: a digital magazine, a compilation of videos and a music mix.

Look for my postcards in the magazine and listen for a Brian Eno cover I did in 2006 in the music mix.
