About
The Threadbare Collective is a curators’ collective that analyses the support systems generated by artistic practice. Their work traverses live events, workshops, spatial installation, radio and archiving. They incorporate architectural practice through folly building, constructing collaboratively with local communities and upcycled materials. Threadbare interacts with community history and artist archival works to ask the question, who does art serve? And how can we best employ support structures to allow rest and care practices to flourish?

Goldsmiths CCA is Located on the campus of Goldsmiths, University of London, Goldsmiths Centre for Contemporary Art is open to everyone. Hosting world-class exhibitions by international artists, and providing a space for established and emergent practices, the institution aims to enhance Goldsmiths’ reputation for excellence and innovation in the arts. The exhibition programme has been devised to encompass a wide-range of exhibition-making, including new commissions, historical presentations, survey exhibitions, and long-term research projects. These are in dialogue with the spaces that make up the institution, ranging from top lit white cubes to a converted iron-lined Victorian water tank.
Commissioned and produced by Threadbare Collective as part of Residency, with support and funding from Goldsmiths CCA.
