Side-ways: A Residency-Exhibition in 2 Parts

GHY Cheung and naphtali
Year: 2021

“Side-ways is a remote residency which brought together a group of artists based in Katarokwi (Kingston) during this past year. Starting in November 2020 and culminating in this 2-part exhibition across Union Gallery and Modern Fuel, Side-ways generated an environment of ongoing exchange among the artists in formats spanning group critiques and informal group discussions. Other artists, curators and cultural workers were invited to add their voices to the year-long dialogue on occasion. Throughout, the residency held fast to sustained conversations and peer-to-peer support, seeing what might happen if artists took on these ways of working as not only generative methods but the critical mass that enables their artmaking.”
