2020 Associates’ Projects: How to Lift Heavy

Each year the Associates would usually host a final show to showcase their work developed throughout their time with us at OSE. During 2020, like many other organisations, we had to rethink and reconfigure our exhibition format in response to the pandemic. The Associates instead put together a series of riso-printed posters that imagine a future exhibition and act as a blueprint for work unmade. This project was made in collaboration with curator Sepake Angiama and designer Ryan Sargent.

A very limited number of physical copies were made available to members of the public but these have now all been claimed. Below you can find digitised versions of each Associate’s individual contribution, as well as extra material including films, sound works and full colour images.
