“Over a period of ten months, prompts were given to Summer Lee and Nathan Goldsmith that provided the inspiration for art making. The artists explored the notion of “shared space” as being one that is inhabited by subjectivity, projections and nuanced tensions that occur when the individual and collective confront each other. This exploration manifested in the exchange of sketches, written memories, photography, audio and visual recordings and ideas that crystallized into tangible artworks. Ultimately, Lee and Goldsmith’s artistic discourse posed its own prompt to the audience – to re-examine our pre-existing ideas about intimacy, absence/presence, and memory.”
