SIXFOLD COLLECTIVE

Group Collaborations and Projects

LAIR

The artists of Sixfold bring their unique sensibility and creative process to the idea of Net and net making, to complete a large sculptural installation, and other collaborative works. The knot tying, woven nature and traditions surrounding net making have a quality and form that speaks of both community connections and individual strength. Each of the Artists in Sixfold imagines nets functionally and metaphorically in creating our installation for Autumn 2011, and some of the ideas we imbue our nets with are of capture, release, letting go the past, safety, dance and play. Installations of "LAIR" were shown at Abernathy Arts Center (Atlanta, GA) from Nov. 18 - Dec. 31, 2011 and at The Hambidge Great ARTdoors Festival (Rabun Gap, GA) on October 15, 2011.

RECURRENCE II, Art on the Beltline, Atlanta GA

Recurrence by Sixfold, was a collaborative sculpture of repurposed fabrics and steel, that was installed in two separate outdoor exhibitions. The first installation of Recurrence 1, was exhibited in the Brooklyn Waterfront Artist Coalition’s annual outdoor sculpture show in Brooklyn, NY, summer 2009. The second installation, Recurrence 2, combined the sculpture with a site-specific garden, for exhibit in “Art on the BeltLine”, Atlanta, GA, summer 2010. This second installation included an artists talk, and separately a youth “Art Walk”. For this, we guided the kids of “Create your Dreams” on a walk to see and discuss the variety of artwork installed along the Beltline, and then facilitated a project to create a temporary “environmental” artwork out of materials found along the walk.

THE MEME PROJECT

Since 2009, Susan Ker-Seymer and UK artist Fay Hutchcroft have collaborated, blending digital and physical art. Their rule: every digital image must become a tangible piece. This experiment transforms digital forms into vibrant, buoyant paintings and works on paper.

In 2014, their project was exhibited in Zalop: Illusory Correspondence Art at Eyedrum, Atlanta, showcasing the fusion of virtual exchange and material art.

Displayed here are select works highlighting their evolving dialogue—colorful, fluid explorations of technology and traditional media.
