ABOUT THE PROJECT
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
RIDERS ON THE TRAIN PROJECT, organized by Boston-based artist Nancy Davies, is an art project seeking your creative responses to riding on public transportation [subway train or bus]. Video, Sound Art, Visual Images [photos, prints, drawings, mappings], Proposals for Performance-related Actions and/or Interventions, Text Pieces [poetry, prose, journal entries]. Have a strange day? A chance meeting? A random digression of thought? A philosophical insight? Observations about time and space, community, social behavior? Anything at all. Your work may be included in the project in one of a number of venues [gallery, train, public video screen].
CONCEPT
In recent years, the ideas concerning ‘what art can be, where it should exist, how it should by made – by whom and for whom – have undergone radical changes. We no longer expect to find art only in museums and galleries, made by and consumed by an informed elite. Today art is off the wall, under the bridge, on the river, and in the soup and conversation! Art moves, morphs, divides and multiplies as people from diverse walks of life, contribute to and inform our cultural production. Often artist and audience 'fuse' for purposes of creating a more authentic and empathetic voice. [1]
The contemporary ‘T’ rider exists as a part of an atypical community shaped by social contingency, time / place fluctuations and indeterminate recurrences - a community transported by train and thought. This project does not assume to create community but rather to make visible, through writing, a kind of ‘already-existing-community’. Participating 'T Riders' are the collective makers of the work. [2]
SITE [ trainSPACE & consciousnessSPACE ]
The project site is layered space. Specifically – the space of the train [literal / material] and the space of human consciousness [virtual]. Riders navigate and negotiate this shared space through carefully coded behavior – often retreating to private thought. Unlike car and bike navigation, which require concentrated skill and attention, this kind of travel allows the rider a temporary suspension in time and space - an interval of unscheduled consciousness. The project seeks to frame this temporary space as a place of potential, generative thought – a fluid place for imagination - a collective nervous system. [3]
Finally, it is hoped that the creative work offered by the riding community will offer an authentic, aggregate, definition of the train riding experience through a diversity of perspectives – work that reflects and critiques the conditions of this mobile space where the rider is - at once - transported and transporting.
