APT +1 Connect

‘APT+1 Connect’ is a group show that brings together APT artist members and is curated by newest APT members Chloe Farrar (Recipient of the Graduate Studio Award) & Patrick H Jones (Recipient of the Ryder Project Space).

Each APT artist-member has been asked to invite a Plus One, which sits side by side the artist’s work. Taking from ideas around ‘mentors’, ‘teachers’ and those who have influenced their practice, each artist’s differing interpretation and sentiments can be seen in the selection of accompanying work. Whether that be a fellow artist and collaborator, a teacher that inspired them to make art, taught them a new process and altered the course of their practice, ever supportive families and partner’s, or something as simple as a poem once read that now sticks, or an author who’s words still ring true. The Plus One becomes a connecting point, the hidden chain in the link but consistent thread in the cycle of support.
