Shaun Kardinal In-Progress

An overhead view of the piece I made for the start of Turn. Looking forward to making more in this vein… 

Sean M. Johnson assesses the piece I made for Turn, a year-long collaborative exhibition, where twelve artists take turns transforming a single piece. 

At the end of the night, he took it home. He has one month to make something new using some part of it, and will show his progress August 25.

Turn happens every Fourth Tuesday at Joe Bar, Seattle

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.

Origins… for Turn. See the beginning tomorrow night!

Trying new things with old postcards for the start of Turn, a year-long collaborative exhibition series of a single, evolving piece.

1/12. Kicking off this inaugural series is project director and platform creator Shaun Kardinal, offering up his first tangible work in nearly two years for eleven iterative, collaborative revisions from his peers and heroes. 

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!

just revisited and reprogrammed the archive for Heptaparaparshinokh, a piece i made for violetstrays in 2011. it now represents the online installation as it happened in a more accurate way, with 92 billion versions available each load.

joerudko gave a talk at his alma mater today, discussing his project twoshelves, and an impromptu installation of left to your own devices happened!

Social Media and the Internet as a Medium
Panel with Shaun Kardinal, Susie J. Lee, and Dylan Neuwirth, moderated by C. Davida Ingram

Social media is where we exchange information, make conversation, and meet each other. The possibilities for the visual arts presented by these media-based, virtual gathering places are explored in this panel discussion of the creative practice of three artists.

December 4, 6pm @ Frye Art Museum

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!
