Dead Fish Collective

Dead Fish Collective Everything we make stinks. It takes bad art to make good art. The focus of these events is on “making” rather than the final product.

Since inhibitions can creatively paralyze artists the Dead Fish Collective’s goal is to make bad art by creating an environment where artists can let go of their inhibitions. Each event will have a collaborative method of making art that forces the participants into unfamiliar territory that does not allow for carefully thought-out artwork. To encourage this there is no criticism at Dead Fish even

ts of either others or your own creations, whether negative or positive. The event’s activity will not be announced beforehand so participants cannot think of ideas ahead of time and all activities will be collaborative so that no artwork will be made by a sole individual. This inhibition-free environment is so participants can enjoy the act of making without the fear of how others may judge the final result. The hope is that artists will bring these practices back to their studios to progress their work in directions they would have otherwise avoided while learning how to collaborate with other artists from a broad range of fields to create a unique work of art. Anything the Dead Fish Collective makes stinks and that’s how we want it.

Great turn out for our 2nd meeting. This month we rolled dice to determine how many scrabble letters to pull out a bowl. Using all the letters we would invent words and phrases and then pining them up on a cork board to make our own poems.
