Duodecim

Kathryn Allan

2019

This 12-part project involved the creation of monthly artworks A and B, with A being the call (created by one artist) and B being the response (created by the other). The result is 24 pieces of work making 12 pairs, each a duo, created over one year (2019). Those artworks I created reside in Hawai‘i and vice versa; they are brought together online.
