What if everyone in the world owned their actions? And purchasing a thing, meant being responsible for its history and its future, now and forever.
Chains is a radical transdisciplinary artist exploring the role of ownership in modern life.
Crafting everyday items from post consumer materials, without the use of machinery.
The artistic process is slow, conscientious and with respect to materials.
This provides an honest value exchange in the buyer and seller relationship—
To go beyond the economic transaction, and become a means of cooperation.
Where both parties participate in the enhancement of the social and ecological fecundity of our community.
Productions are individually documented, publicly and permanently recorded.
Prices are in proportion to cost of the production.
The purpose is to dismantle the impersonal system that allows consumption with impunity.
Visibility holds the artist and the buyer accountable to one another in their shared future.
THE FUTURE IS RADICAL, OPEN AND COOPERATIVE
