The Artsider collective is a group of artists whose spatial and performative work implies a mix of chaos, action and methodical control.

Artsider presents the backstage of the artistic process and practice. It will create temporal artefacts and spaces that change, evolve and mutate for the duration of its space inhabitancy.  It aims to eliminate the disconnection of artists and their process from the work they do, and to re-establish the art object as artist and orchestrator of space.

Each day the artists will come to work in uniforms specific to each artist’s purpose, to work daily 9-5 for the duration of their inhabitancy of Articulate project space. Each day their labour will be documented and next day it will be projected to contrast existing and past space-time. Artsider's project is to investigate the liminal space between live and documented performance, static and active art objects, creation and destruction so as to explore the labour that artists invest in artwork.
