Two-Step: Playing Up
Glasgow Print Studio 2023
Shapeero and Taylor work like artisans, but they are not under the guide of a master. Together, their two individual practices merge and evolve another language on paper and through colour and textile. This language is only possible through an equitable, interactive and highly permissible approach that is made manifest through their working as a collective artist pair. In this way Two Step’s process can be argued as a political statement making claim for more than one way to work as an artist. In today’s world of divisiveness and binary thinking the collective artist pair stand as an example of co-creating generous spaces for being with (each other and processes of decision-making) that are democratic and necessary. Two Step work together and with others in group-like scenarios and through that mode of operating a much-needed insight into collaboration emerges both for art and for our times. ‘Sara Wookey’
