SomethingProjects
is an artist-run curatorial project co-directed by artists Howard el-Yasin and Suzan Shutan.
It is a nomadic, transitory and provisional space providing short-term exhibitions that dually highlight artists as well as introducing communities to new viewpoints and practices by state, regional, national and international artists.
As an incubator for ideas, we encourage artists to step outside their boundaries and experiment with the intersection of materials, production, presentation and means of engagement with audience and space.
Our locations will change and offer site-specific opportunities. It may include elevators, storefronts, refrigerators, open closets as well as laundry mats, nurseries, supermarkets, and outdoor sites.
Our Mission is:
- To encourage artists to embrace and promote curiosity and precarity as action, to support and explore.
- To enliven and challenge the communities at our landings.
- To be the spark that ignites possibilities.
- To dually highlight local artists as well as introducing communities to new viewpoints and practices by national and international artists.
- To be an incubator for ideas, we encourage artists to step outside their boundaries and experiment with the intersection of materials, production, presentation and means of engagement with audience and space.
