For the artistic duo Q_plus_I, collaborative projects have become increasingly important in our artistic practice, and we are currently curating, organising, and involved in a number of in-person and online participatory events. This way of working has been a shift in artistic practice and seems to have opened up a lot of possibilities regarding the transference of ideas/ concepts and methods of working. A major driver being the question ‘how would that conversation look visually?’ wishing to document the event of transference, connection and layering is a fundamental interest of ours.

As artists, our work has been in the realm of event based participatory performances, mostly fixed into a certain time duration with certain rules and restrictions imposed. Another aspect has been the exploration of process, language and how we communicate. These projects have centred around words, how we understand them, how we use them, and how we can visualise them. Exploring the limits of processes has opened up multiple conversations. We conceive of a space in which anyone can build their own narrative (either in a physical space, or a virtual space), and feel that they have the ability to respond to, and make artworks in any way they wish, to enable the expansion and extension of ideas. Collectively we have had over four decades of coordinating and organising collaborative art and education projects (online and in-person) in Europe, America and Australia.
