We, The Makers

What happens when artists give up sole artistic control and ownership of an artwork in favor of expanding the creative process? There are benefits and challenges to collaboration. The process can bring surprise, joy, ambiguity, compromise, communication, frustration; all ending in an agreeable finishing point. Working together to combine perspectives and art practices, we create something that could not have been created alone. Arts Benicia invites artists to submit fully realized collaborative artwork made by two or more artists.
