Spurce: Interventionalist Artists (nature and technology)


SPURCE (INTERVENTIONALIST ARTISTS) Many years ago we began as a rag tag bunch of artists, architects, BMXers, philosophers etc. We were curious and perplex by how things happened, emerged, and changed. And over the ensuing years we have often been categorized as “interventionist artists” or an “artist collective”. These labels and practices, while being interesting enough, seem far from our interests today. We still are a rag-tag bunch, there are more of us, and our work has expanded. But more than this we have grown and shifted both in our ideas, and our practices. Our curiosity, and the ideas that have emerged through working with others, have forced us to rethink and remake ourselves a number of times. Currently we rarely see ourselves as artist and rarely worry much about what is happening in the arts. We are most curious about systems -- systems that entangle us as humans with non-humans across many scales and logics. We are interested in experimenting on a systems level with questions and issues.
