Curatorial Statement
During the pandemic last summer, IN 7 was created to fill the void that many of us were feeling. We were starved for a connection with our artist community and to other people. We wanted to create collaboratively and share our creations with others in a safe manner. We wanted to test the limits of what can be created from start to finish in a short time frame. By using Gardenship, a massive warehouse that houses art studios in Kearny Point NJ, as a source of inspiration, we gave artists time, space, and resources to create an experimental video. An artistic twist on a 24-hour film challenge that concluded with an outdoor drive-in screening. Following the success of the concept, the exciting turnout of participants & audience, and the outstanding caliber of art videos created, we are at it again with IN 7 (Part 2).
A 7-day experimental video art residency where site-specific videos are created and screened at Gardenship in Kearny Point. Artists are chosen to create a project they've been dreaming about or something completely out of the blue, inspired by the site. Artists already working in video AND artists that have never made videos before but always wanted to are invited to apply. Some artists work primarily alone with little assistance while other artists who need to collaborate with others are connected through this residency with videographers, editors, and musicians in order to make their vision a reality.
