SCIBase
COLONIZE

Preview Friday 4th April
Jamestown, USA

SCIBase is a collaborative project between BasementArtsProject, Leeds and the SCI collective based in the Northwest of England. At the core of this project are artists Wendy Williams (SCI) and Bruce Davies (BasementArtsProject) who have been responsible for putting together the ad hoc groupings that constitute SCIBase exhibitions. This group has so far exhibited at the Stockholm Independent Art Fair 2012, the Liverpool Independents Biennial 2012 and Divided We Fall, Leeds also in 2012.

The SCIBase collective is a vehicle for collaboration that aims to open up networks and dialogue between artists in different situations and areas of the globe. The collective includes members not only from Leeds and Merseyside, but also Sheffield, the Midlands, Sweden and Jamestown, New York, USA. The COLONIZE exhibition represents the culmination of a year’s worth of planning and takes a sideways look at different aspects of colonization

SCIBase would like to thank the following people and organisations for their invaluable support and faith in our project, we hope that you enjoyed the fruits of our labour as much as we enjoyed the process of constructing this exhibition.
