Act with intention & dwell within tensions.
We are artists who are both lost and found, both within and without the spaces of institution and navigating the spaces beyond the horizon?
​
Navigating our various proximities to institutions and the spaces beyond them parsing through what we want to keep, what we want to let go of, and what we hope to transform.
​
Our goal is to house new ideas, old ideas, and bad ideas, nurturing a space for them to take form.
​
We inhabit a place between the seriousness of academia and the frivolity of passing thought. We will often fall into cliches and trends as they pass us, as we all often must.
​
We invite you to critically engage with the content, to challenge and be challenged, to test the tensions in question.

How can I participate at withintensions?
We announce new topics each month in preparation of the coming month and engage in either visual or written forms. We would love to see work from you, and invite you to submit a topic-related visual and/or written piece.
We encourage interdisciplinary approaches to art criticism and do not restrict our writing to simply visual art. The works we feature in our monthly magazine range from artworks, opinion pieces, poetry, reviews, interviews, art(ist) spotlights, and manifestos. Our goal is to create dialogues where we can explore current art concepts by sharing our personal perspectives with one another.
