Research & Development Studio Projects
The outcomes of our studio practice are projects varying in form and scale that are developed in service to our mission of contextualizing our histories, imagining our futures, and grounding us in the now.

The ITS-IN-SCOPE Archive Caretaker Fellowship was designed to empower intuition and reward the curiosity of local artists and archivists. Launched in 2020, the fellowship includes six months of collective learning, studio practice, and communal exhibition. Fellows explore the ITS-IN-SCOPE intuitive pedagogy and identify information to be shared and archived in an exhibition of material artifacts, visual essays, and audio records.
Two fellowship cohorts have completed the program since its formation, exhibiting in 2021 at Memoryhaus 555 and in 2024 at The Salt Eaters Bookshop respectively. In total this program has gathered and engaged with nearly 15 Black and Indigenous artists and researchers through this experimental collective learning practice.
